The Emotional Abyss
One of the greatest barriers to finding acceptance and a Life With Loss is crossing over the Emotional Abyss.
In this video, Brett helps you recognize the real emnotions and how to use them to cross over to acceptance of the new reality.
Ever heard that? It would be nice to just accept the loss and move forward. Unfortunately this requires time and crossing through the Emotional Abyss.
In this chapter, Brett explores what it means to accept, and how this can be similar to bargaining to those looking in. It's all about the emotional energy.
One of the realities that we must accept is that we live a Life With Loss and when we become Loss Managers, life becomes much easier.
In this final chapter of the Good Grief - Really! primer session for Pathway Through Grief, Brett explores what it means to be a Loss Manager and how it helps us prepare for the next loss, and to mourn with those that mourn.
