116 : Building Your Grief Toolbox

Send a message to Megan

Episode Pointers:

•  When grief first comes to you, you might have a few tools in your toolbox. It may be ways you have used to cope in the past or things you’ve used to get through hard seasons in your life before. 
• 
  
• But imagine that you get to build a toolbox of skills that you can pick and choose from to help support you on your grief journey. 

• If you begin practicing skills and putting tools in your toolbox, you can have options and choices to help you get through a grief wave, and a place of support when things are really hard.

Here’s an idea of what has been in my toolbox, and what is currently in my own toolbox:

1. Thought work.
2. Learning to feel, experience emotions, and building my container for my emotional capacity.
3. Movement.
4. Meditation.
5. Therapy.
6. Coaching.
7. Energy work.
8. Body work.
9. Leaning on my Faith

• There are so many ways you can come to support your body and mind through this grief journey. And I believe that if you can build your toolbox, you have more options and ways of supporting yourself. 
  
  
•  You don’t need to build your grief toolbox all at once, but as you do something, imagine that you are building the skill and capacity to have more tools in your toolbox.
