Ep. 07 Emotional Overload vs Emotional Processing

Grieving comes with so many different and often intense feelings. Sometimes it’s right for us to engage with those feelings consciously and deeply. Sometimes, for lots of reasons, the feelings can be too intense to engage. Selysa and Nathan talk about why this can happen and what you can do in both cases. This episode takes a close look at some important nervous system and emotion regulation strategies for acute and active grief. Free Download: ⁠⁠⁠⁠How to Receive Support While Grieving

Ep. 06 Waves of Grief, Learning to Surf Emotions

There are many metaphors for the long, deeply personal process of grieving. Using the analogy of ocean tides can be another useful way to relate to the recurring experience of various elements of our grief, including heightened emotion and Survival Mode reactivity that persist or return long after the initial period of mourning. This episode is perfect for those wondering why they “aren’t getting over it yet”. In the initial period of acute grief following a loved one’s death, many of us experience more frequent and intense Survival Mode reactions along with or instead of intense emotion. We may go into a state of Fight, Flight, Freeze, and/or Appease more regularly or for a sustained period, and feel less sadness, sorrow, or grief than we would otherwise expect. Nathan and Selysa discuss examples of this and how to address it. Notice, Name, Touch™ is an emotional processing tool developed by the Center for Emotional Education.

Ep. 04 Debunking the 5 Stages of Grief

Selysa and Nathan take a look at the most common (and most famous) misinformation about grieving the death of a loved one: “The 5 Stages of Grief”. Even though Kubler-Ross was studying the terminally ill and what they tend to go through (not bereaved people), and even though she wrote that these stages themselves were not linear – western culture has misappropriated and enshrined this way of relating to the messy, idiosyncratic journey each of us takes through mourning. They also talk about other useful ways to relate to the long term process(es) of grieving. Free Download: ⁠How to Receive Support While Grieving
