A free VIRTUAL community conversation on Unearthing the unacknowledged and the roots of Grief.
Grief is felt in big ways, in small ways, in every day ways. It can’t always be named by words. But it can be deeply felt and experienced in the body, in the bones.
The body remembers what the mind agreed to forget.
We can carry Grief in our bodies our whole lives. It can be passed down from earlier generations and we can carry it without even knowing it. Maybe it’s that dull sadness that has been around for so long, and can’t be traced.
Our Society has a fear of Grief. It tries to cover it with ‘I’m fine’. ‘We don’t cry in public’. ‘Put your big girl pants on and get on with it’
We may even suppress or downplay our own grief and experiences because we see someone else moving through something and deem ours minimal or carry a different weight. Of course it’s different! We are each unique humans experiencing vastly different journeys! But, by no means, are we less worthy or significant.
Yet, Grief is a doorway to feel + to come to life again, to carry forward wisdom from it.
When we ritualize Grief and look into its eyes, the masks and layers can be released. Reverence and growth and radical self compassion can be carried forward.
We can let go of the shame and guilt for feeling sadness and Grief.
Grief is not just one emotion or feeling. It can’t be bottled up and given a title.
It’s life. The losses, the deaths, the versions of ourselves we’ve outgrown but still carry. It’s the turning of the seasons and mourning the loss of previous ones. It’s the unlived dreams we carry within.
The body remembers what the mind agreed to forget.
