I cannot tell you how grateful I am for the Tools of Grief Recovery, for more reasons than one but especially in times of Loss of A Loved One. Almost 10 years ago I was introduced to The Grief Recovery Outreach Program. At the time I had no idea it would pay dividends for A Lifetime. Meaning, I know now that no matter what happens or doesn't happen in my life I'm equipped with tools to be able to Move On and that's Huge.
Immediately upon taking the 12 week Outreach Program I knew this is what I wanted to do all my life. Help people in away that impacted their Hearts. So I got Certified September 2003 as a Grief Recovery Specialist. I increased my skill and have been helping people Move Beyond The Pain of Loss ever since. And I Love it.
I better understand that an incomplete past may doom one's future. Unresolved Grief is everywhere. There are over 43 losses that are considered Grief. Some examples include:
Death
Divorce
Retirement
Moving
Pet Loss
Financial change (increase or decrease in wealth)
Loss of health
Legal Problems
Empty Nest
End of Addiction
Starting School
Here are some of the intangible examples of Grief:
Loss of Trust
Loss of Safety
Loss of Control
Loss of Faith
Loss of Fertility
Sadly, if you misdiagnose, you will mistreat. Recovery from loss is achieved by a series of small and correct choices made by the Griever. These skills allow one to deal with the normal and natural reactions to Significant Emotional Loss of Anykind. It's not a matter of if I'll encounter Grief but when. Are You Ready?
