The Secret of Grief

Over these 40 years I’ve helped people grieve the ending of a marriage that they had never taken care of, which totally and finally freed them to be available for new love. We have helped people grieve the loss of a parent, we have even help people grieve the loss of a child one of the most difficult grieving processes to go through, and through this course they’ve come out the other side with an immense amount of inner peace and calmness.

We have helped people grieve the loss of a career, the loss of a house, the loss of a best friend, we’ve even help many people grieve the loss of a loved Pet…

So no matter what we are dealing with we can help you move through the process to accept the reality of life, and to learn healthy emotional coping skills so that we can move forward and be emotionally available in life.

Here’s a few important tips that I want to share that we will go over in detail together:

• Grieving is not linear. It might be five steps forward and three steps backwards, which is why working with a professional is so crucial.

• For many people, one of the most difficult things to let go of after an event that has create created great grief, is the shame and or guilt that we may be holding within, that needs to be released in order to be free.

• We’ve had clients that had incredible guilt because they had stopped visiting their parents on a regular basis and then once the parents passed on, they weren’t prepared because of the guilt they felt of abandoning their parents maybe in their greatest hour of need. We’ve helped people after divorce, grieve the loss of the relationship and may feel guilty about the role they played that led to the demise of their marriage.

• We teach a concept that is so crucial to learn in this world called “emotional regulation“, which is a fancy term that basically describes that we learn how to deal with the sadness, anger, abandonment, shame, guilt, insecurity that often arises during the grieving process. With emotional regulation, we feel each and every emotion, but then on the flip-side we have a coping mechanism that we immediately put into place so that the emotional pain does not get deeper instead of becoming less.

Join us today, don’t wait for tomorrow, too many people procrastinate on the grieving process only to have it come back and rear its ugly head in a much more intense way down the road.

We will also go into in great detail the role that amino acid supplements play in helping brain chemistry during the grieving process. We will talk about nutritional recommendations as well that surprisingly can help in the grieving process, depending on your desires we can go deeply into the power of spirituality and healing, prayer and healing, and many other options depending on your individual personality.

Cognitive behavioral therapy… Relaxation techniques… Emotional journaling… And many other tools are used during this course to help you heal. This course is designed for individuals, on an individual basis. There’s no cookie-cutter way to go through the grieving process, and so that’s why we make sure to make it based on each individual I work with.
