10 Years of Loss - grief, feeling your feelings, and breath

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. Resources mentioned in this episode:Anxiety the Missing Stage of Grief- Claire Bidwell SmithOption B- Sheryl SandbergPlus One: Finding God on the Yoga Mat- Cori MartinezTo Love and Let Go- Rachel BrathenWhen Breath Becomes Air- Paul KalanithiOprah and Deepak Chopra’s meditationsThe Work (self inquiry from Byron Katie)Loving What Is- Byron KatieA Thousand Names for Joy- Byron Katie=================================================Watch the podcast on YouTube and subscribe!Join the MovementREV email list to stay up to date on the Unreal Results Podcast and MovementREV education.
