Soothing your grief begins with the recognition that grief is part of life and when we fight grievances we simply make ourselves sick. Sick of life, sick of trying, sick of holding on and, YES, physically sick. Much of our physical illness is brought on because we do not know how to process grief and loss in life.
It is important we hold space for all emotions. Whether it is sadness, pain, elation, joy, anger, hope, frustration or any emotion that surfaces, holding space to allow it to process is so helpful.
In spiritual practice, I sit with others as they hold space for themselves. Part of my work is to keep them anchored in the moment to allow all the feelings to be recognized and witnessed. In our spiritualness, our soul journey, the ego gets in the way of the quieter voice of the spirit. Like two children in school, one acting out and the other quietly suffering, the loudest gets the attention because they disrupt the status quo. The ability for the classroom (your body) to function. The ego answers society, judgement and the world around you … the soul or the spirit answers your heart. The ego will win if you let it.
We are all free to disregard the spiritual dimension of our lives and chalk it up to not being religious. We are also free to think of the spiritual dimension of life as “woo-woo” or something for the hippies of the 70’s. We are also free to realized we are spiritual beings simply because we have a soul and an ego that battle it out in this human existence.
I believe every person is made in the image of perfect love. Love that is all around us and grows trees, keeps the earth on her axis, the sun in the galaxy and allows me to see and appreciate a beautiful flower. I believe every person can heal and walk the journey of a healthy spirit.
