​LET'S TALK ABOUT GRIEF

Grief as a Catalyst for Transformation
There is a great power and potential that lies within a broken heart. When we experience grief, our hearts feel like they crack open and grow bigger… if we allow it. And within the brokenness lies the potential for radical change to occur. In some ways we have to change, because it is too painful to stay where we are. The pain is what urges us to evolve so that we can ease our own suffering. We are never the same once grief happens. There is no going back to who we once were, and for many of us, this loss of innocence and our former identity is another loss to grieve.

For some people, there is an inherent identity crisis within the grieving process. The person you once were may die with your loss, which can increase the anxiety, fear, and sadness of the loss itself. However, with the death of your former identity, there is also the opening for new parts of yourself to emerge.


Kintsugi 
The Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with gold paint - purposely highlighting the broken parts. Let this be a metaphor for the process of healing, resilience, and finding beauty in the brokenness of grief. You are not broken, you are grieving. And you are beautiful.
