Grief Recovery

Unresolved grief can impact your mental and physical health in ways we might not realize. From the time we are little, we experience repetitive grief events that so often are inadequately processed. These grief events stack up like heavy rocks. Imagine carrying around a backpack and collecting these rocks throughout our lives? Now imagine how heavy that backpack gets as we get older and experience even more grief events? It can become unbearable. Unresolved grief can impact our emotions and behaviors and leave us feeling stuck and weighed down. But there is hope. You dont have to stay stuck. Behavioral Fitness can help.

The Grief Recovery Institute® defines grief in the following ways:

• Grief is the normal and natural reaction to significant emotional loss of any kind.
• Grief is the conflicting feelings caused by the end of, or change in, a familiar pattern of behavior.
• Grief is the feeling of reaching out for someone who has always been there, only to find when you need them again, they are no longer there.

There are clues embedded in our behaviors and emotions.  Grief is often misunderstood and taken for depression, anxiety, burnout, or stress.

How do you know if you or others are impacted by grief?

Are you or someone you know….

• experiencing a grief event?
• struggling with unhealthy behavior patterns?
• navigating a significant change or loss?
• having trouble concentrating?
• experiencing a sense of numbness or disconnection?
• having sleep disturbances or fear of being alone at night?
• experiencing a change in eating habits?
• feeling like you are riding a roller coaster of emotions?
• experiencing unresolved health issues?
• experiencing lack of trust in others?
• experiencing excessive worry?
• feeling easily irritated or short fused?
• experiencing addiction?

Any one of the above could be an indicator of unresolved grief.
