Grief is a normal reaction to loss. It is an anguished experience. It can linger in the background of the day or it can hit you like a forceful wave.
Mourning is the outward expression of our grief. It is an active part of the grieving process. It can encompass rituals and customs.
When in grief, our brain is experiencing the absence of a person or an thing. This struggle can bring about a lot of distress. This is because your body and mind are trying to live in a world where your loved one (your loss) is simultaneously gone and everlasting. That is a complicated thing for humans to reconcile.
If you are interested in working through grief or mourning, I encourage you to set up an appointment so we can explore your needs and the best methods to support you in your journey.
