Grieving with Purpose
Grief is never something we’re ready for. There are so many feelings, thoughts, anxieties, and heartache which seem to catch us by surprise. However, when we channel those into our self-growth, amazing things can happen. Pain is typically followed by healing.
Sigmund Freud first brought up the concept of grief work in 1917, and today the idea that bereavement is purpose-driven continues. Dr. James Worden chose to see the work of bereavement as task-oriented:
-
- Accepting the reality
- Working through pain and grief
- Adjusting to a new reality without the deceased
- To find a connection with the deceased while moving forward in life
While these steps will not follow any particular order, your goal should be on completing each of these tasks. Every person’s path on the grieving journey is a little bit different.
It’s not easy to manage grief. Successfully adapting to the loss of a significant person in your life involves courage and hard work. If we can help you in any way, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.
