Summary

Grief can resurface at any stage of your healing journey, even years after a traumatic event, and giving space to these emotions is crucial for your well-being.  I reflect on my own experience of grief resurfacing during a funeral, and how allowing myself to fully feel and express those emotions was essential for my recovery.  By addressing the sensations and emotions in our body, you can better navigate your healing journey from narcissistic abuse, toxic relationships and childhood trauma. Being emotionally aware and using self-compassion, particularly when it comes to the grieving process, is an essential part of the recovery process.
