BEHIND THE STATISTICS ARE REAL PEOPLE THAT HAVE REAL STORIES.
HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED A MAJOR LOSS DURING THE PANDEMIC?
MOST PEOPLE ASSOCIATE GRIEVING WITH THE DEATH OF A LOVED ONE- WHICH IS OFTEN THE CAUSE OF THE MOST INTENSE TYPE OF GRIEF- BUT ANY LOSS CAN CAUSE GRIEF, INCLUDING:
-A BREAKUP OR DIVORCE
-LOSS OF HEALTH
-LOSS OF FINANCIAL STABILITY
-A MISCARRIAGE
-RETIREMENT
-DEATH OF A PET
-A LOVED'S SERIOUS ILLNESS
-LOSS OF A FRIENDSHIP
-LOSS OF SAFETY AFTER TRAUMA
ARE YOU GRIEVING?
GRIEF COMES IN WAVES. SOME WAVES REPEAT, SOME PASS QUICKLY. IT IS IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE GRIEVING AS A PROCESS, SO YOU CAN GIVE YOURSELF TIME AND PERMISSION TO HEAL. IF LOSS IS A KIND OF PAIN, THEN GRIEVING IS THE PATHWAY TO ITS HEALING.
WHAT IF WE TOLD YOU THAT THERE ARE A SET OF GUIDELINES THAT CAN HELP TO IDENTIFY THE VARIOUS EMOTIONS EXPERIENCED WHILE GOING THROUGH A LOSS?? THAT'S RIGHT! THE 5 STAGES OF GRIEF WERE CREATED TO HELP THOSE THAT ARE GRIEVING LEARN TO LIVE WITH THEIR LOSS AND BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ARE ARE EXPERIENCING WHEN IT CAN BE HARD TO EXPLAIN.
WE ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO COMMIT TO JUST FIVE MINUTES A DAY OF SENDING RANDOM MESSAGES OF LOVE AND GRATITUDE TO PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT SOMEONE IS GOING THROUGH AND IF THEY DESPERATELY NEED TO FEEL THAT LOVE FROM YOU.
TELLING SOMEONE YOU LOVE THEM DOES NOT ALWAYS NEED TO INVOLVE THE WORDS, “I LOVE YOU”.
EVERY SINGLE PERSON UNDERSTANDS LOVE AND EXPRESSES IT IN A DIFFERENT WAY. YOU MIGHT SEND A TEXT TO A FRIEND, DELIVER SOME FLOWERS TO A FAMILY MEMBER, OR DM AN ACQUAINTANCE WHO HAS INSPIRED YOU IN SOME WAY.. WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE, JUST SPREAD SOME LOVE EVERYDAY.
