This is a really personal episode for me, though I have often talked about my how losing my Mom to lung cancer was a pivotal time in my life and professionally was the tipping point to learn about visceral manipulation, I have not shared a lot on my grief journey in general.
For 10 years, from 2009-2019 loss and grief were at the forefront of my life, and it was a very heavy time. However, in that sorrow, I chose to lean-in to it and let it be a teacher for me, slowly learning how to take care of myself and recognize and feel my feelings.
In this episode I share my stories of loss- friends, family, parents, homes, identities and more and what resources were helpful to me in meeting my grief and learning find joy again.
I also share the connection of grief to the viscera and common musculoskeletal pains that can result and how many of the self-care practices are actually facilitating our brain and autonomic nervous system in healing.
