Episode 2972: Reid Peterson explores how healing from grief requires intentionally “holding space” for pain while allowing emotions to move freely rather than be controlled. By practicing self-care and self-love with compassion and patience, you create the conditions for meaning, hope, and emotional resilience to gradually return. This perspective offers a grounded, actionable path toward growth, clarity, and deeper empathy through loss. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://medium.com/wholistique/healing-from-grief-how-does-one-do-it-7fd279e80e76 Quotes to ponder: “The more actively you pay attention to and express your grief as it naturally unfolds, the more you are giving yourself momentum toward healing.” “Holding space is setting an intention to be with your grief.” “Stay with the grief. Lean into it. Hold space for it. Care for your needs. Love yourself and you will come to a place of understanding, peace and wisdom, all of which help you grow.” Episode references: Grief Refuge: https://www.griefrefuge.com Alan Wolfelt: https://www.centerforloss.com Learn more about your ad choices.
