In today’s episode, Sandra shares her grieving journey when she had lost her only child, Conor. 

She was devastated,depressed, and fell into great anxiety. She also had a recurrence of her cancer.It took her 4 years to finally accept that his son had passed away. 

She went into different Grief Groups and counselling for support. She then came across  Megan’s Facebook Page (Grieving Moms Coaching and Community) and she realized that anxiety is part of grief. Megan’s courses have served as a roadmap on how to navigate her grief.

Episode Pointers:

• Many things can happen to us physically if we don't address the deep pain that needs to move through, that needs to get out because of it it's an energy that’s stuck.

• Do this ( the work) for yourself or with someone because it will help with your health and well-being.

• As mothers, like no matter what way our child died, we see we have this sense of guilt or sense of responsibility over their death. And that pain is brutal.

• You can get relief from that pain if you do the tools, really and truly you can.

• Grieving might be too overwhelming but it is possible to handle another thing.

• The simple tools ( tapping, meditation, etc.) feels like a life jacket that will help you in facing the different waves of grief.

• We are creating suffering when we are not using clean thoughts.

• Resistance makes it worse.

• The more that you become aware and the more you acknowledge your emotions, it just makes life with your grief so much lighter.

If you want more tools to help you, I have a workshop called Stop Talking Start Feeling, it’s a workshop that dives into emotions, what they are, and how you can begin to feel and process them and get them out of your body instead of stuffing them down. It also goes specifically into processing and releasing the emotions of guilt and sadness. You can get access to this workshop and all the extra things I have in there for only $27. Go to www.stoptalkingstartfeeling.com to check it out.
