We’ve got a breezy topic on tap for today. :)
Good ol’ grief.
Grief is as human as your very own heartbeat.
In fact, much of what we might call anxiety, perfectionism, control freaky-ness and depression is often just unprocessed grief.
I’m in my own season of grief as my beloved pup Winnie passed away last week.
I was almost as attached to Winnie as I am to my pinky toe.
I’ve feared this since the day I got her.
But having weathered several significant griefs so far, I feel like my soul has been seasoned in preparation.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the only thing that has ever helped me move through my grief instead of be crushed by it: the embrace of beauty.
You’ll hear about :
The many ways beauty can help mend a broken heart
Grief rituals from across the world
A beautiful piece on the heart opening nature of grief
Some of the most powerful, personal rituals I’ve used to heal and express grief through my body
If you’re in a season of grief, over a lost loved one or a lost favorite pair of socks (grief comes in all flavors after all), my heart is with you.
May this episode, as well as this mini slideshow of my sweet Winnie, bring you beauty and joy.
With love,
Mary
