The Many Faces of Grief - with Shelley F Knight

John talks to positive changes expert, author and podcaster, Shelley F Knight, whose works include new book 'Good Grief: The A to Z Approach To Modern Day Healing'. Shelley and John discuss the concept behind the book, Shelley's own experiences with loss and grief through her life and career experience as a nurse, and the many ways in which grief can manifest. KEY TAKEAWAYS Loss can cause us to become stuck in a place and time - grief can lock us in place - and only through recognition and guidance can we free ourselves and move on. Life is about moving forwards, never looking too long back behind us. We must move on if we hope to grow, and if we hope to heal. Grief is not just restricted to death and losing a loved on. Grief can arise through losing anything to which we have an emotional connection, including jobs, finances, freedoms, health, or even loss of control. Relationships, and self-regulation are not things that are taught in our current education system, and yet they are skills and tools that we all must reply upon. We must therefore do all we can to help the next generation to better understand themselves. BEST MOMENTS 'I've gone from a clinical mindset of understanding into a spiritual one' 'We're more than the doctors tell us. We are beautiful beings with so much potential' 'I've not come this far to only come this far' 'We must allow ourselves to speak about how we're feeling' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Relationship Guy Podcast - https://omny.fm/shows/the-relationship-guy       Shelley F Knight Twitter - https://twitter.com/ShelleyFKnight Shelley F Knight - https://shelleyfknight.com ABOUT THE HOST I am John Kenny, The Relationship Guy - Coaching people to experience healthy loving relationships.
