Dealing With Experiences of Other People's Grief

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Ian talks about what may be termed "secondhand sadness." If the sorrow you feel is the result of witnessing an event, you enter a state of empathy, you genuinely immerse yourself and experience all the fields around what you are experiencing, and if you return to that position of personal accountability, you can respond in a manner that is most commensurate with who you are. Don’t miss:Ian explains that you end up feeling emotionally overloaded in a manner that you do not comprehend. And rather than being a place of empathy and being able to interpret what they are going through and being a source of strength for them,Ian clarifies that the greater your suffering, the greater your subconscious' responses.That personal accountability is how we respond from a personal standpoint, as opposed to simply externally.In this confined area, proper space is really essential, not engaging in a fight-or-flight response, nor focusing solely on our own concerns, nor engaging in sharing.About the Host:Ian Hawkins is the Founder and Host of The Grief Code. Dealing with grief firsthand with the passing of his father back in 2005 planted the seed in Ian to discover what personal freedom and legacy truly are. This experience was the start of his journey to healing the unresolved and unknown grief that was negatively impacting every area of his life. Leaning into his own intuition led him to leave corporate and follow his purpose of creating connections for himself and others. The Grief Code is a divinely guided process that enables every living person to uncover their unresolved and unknown grief and dramatically change their lives and the lives of those they love. Thousands of people have now moved from loss to light following this exact process. Check Me Out On:Join The Grief Code Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1184680498220541/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ianhawkinscoaching/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ianhawkinscoaching/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ianhawkinscoaching/ Start your healing journey with my FREE Start Program https://www.ianhawkinscoaching.com/thestartprogram I hope you enjoyed this episode of The Grief Coach podcast, thank you so much for listening. Please share it with a friend or family member that you know would benefit from hearing it too. If you are truly ready to heal your unresolved or unknown grief, let's chat.
