Connection Moment with Melissa Lunardini of Tribal Grief, Episode 15

In a time where grief is a shared emotion around the world, grief specialist Melissa Lunardini shares a message of hope in today’s Connection Moment.  The first step is remembering to give yourself and others grace to grieve as individuals.  She offers a great tip to increase mindfulness using the Stop Technique, simply pausing to observe what’s going on around and inside you, while taking some deep breaths.  This provides a moment to figure out where you are in the present moment, and what you need to do next.  Melissa encourages us to use some “old school” techniques to connect with our patients.  Try handwriting a note or letter!  There will be opportunities for post-traumatic growth after the pandemic that will make hospice professionals and caregivers stronger, creating resiliency.  Go to tribalgrief.com to utilize Melissa’s grief and bereavement consulting services for your agency or team.
