Not Everything Happens for a Reason — Grief, Meaning and the Nervous System Truth Nobody Tells You | Abi Beri

The phrase 'everything happens for a reason' is offered with love — and it is one of the most widely used forms of spiritual bypass in existence. It asks the nervous system to perform acceptance before grief has been allowed to complete. Integrative somatic therapist and family constellation facilitator Abi Beri offers the distinction that changes everything: meaning is not the same as reason. Grief does not need a justification in order to be real. And the nervous system cannot fully heal inside a story that asks it to accept before it has been honestly witnessed. For anyone who was given the phrase when they needed something different. Includes somatic guided journey and closing reflection. blissfulevolution.com
