Grief can feel very isolating. We really need to stay connected with loved ones and lean on your support network. That can include amental health professional who can help you process your grief, or a support group for people experiencing loss. Expressing our feelings with people who are supportive of us can be cathartic.
PURPOSE: Talk about how Grief and Loss and how we can support each other in our parish.
Reaching acceptance is an important part of coping with grief and loss in a healthy way. Acceptance doesn’t always mean happiness—for some, it can mean seeing tragedy as an opportunity to create meaning in their lives or find a renewed sense of purpose. Acceptance can also help us honor and celebrate who or what we’ve lost, and help us find a new path forward.
