The language of grief - how to communicate to help healing

The language of grief - how to communicate to help healing
After a loss, it is often so hard to find the right words to express what we feel. This event will look at how we can find the best way to talk about our grief and emotions to help our healing.

Words often become meaningless after a loss and it is very hard to express what is happening to others. Additionally, the support we receive often sticks with platitudes. what is there to say after such loss?

However, our emotions need to be acknowledged so we can begin or continue our healing journey. During this event, we will look at how the language around grief often halts healing and why. Do we communicate with language based in fear? Anger? Shame? How can we find words and affirmations that come from a place of love and healing?

We will examine how we can set boundaries to protect our grieving process from those that might struggle to understand our journey and explore how you can change or adapt your language when it comes to talking about and sitting with your grief.
