This session, “You're Not Crazy, You're Grieving: Six Steps for Surviving Loss,” will help you understand your feelings and cope with your loss.
About the Event
After a significant loss, it’s common to feel like we’re going crazy. We’re in shock and disoriented, and time seems out of whack. Our moods swing wildly.
But you’re not going crazy - you’re grieving. During this webinar, we’ll examine six steps for surviving loss:
- Know that your intense grief is normal and necessary
- Do whatever you need to do to feel safe and comfortable
- Acknowledge the illusion of having control
- Tell your story
- Embrace your spirituality
- Step toward truly living even as you grieve
The discussion is based on “You’re Not Crazy – You Are Grieving: The Six Steps for Surviving Loss” by Alan D. Wolfelt, Ph.D., director of the Center for Loss and Life Transition and a member of the faculty at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.
