How to Process Grief

Grief. It’s a word that carries a weight heavier than most of us can imagine until we’re faced with it. It’s not just an emotion but an all-encompassing experience—a storm that can leave us feeling raw, untethered, and searching for solid ground. Whether you’ve experienced the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a phase of life, or even a version of yourself, grief touches us all in different ways.

Grief is a natural and necessary part of healing, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. It’s not a straight path but a journey that ebbs and flows. It can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, and even isolating. But there is hope. You don’t have to navigate it alone.

This month in The Self Care Space, we’re introducing The Grief Collection – a curated series of 18 classes designed to guide you through the emotional upheaval of grief. These practices are here to support you as you navigate the 5 stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. From meditations to somatic practices, each class is crafted to help you process, release, and heal at your own pace.

The Journey Through Grief

Grief can feel like a whirlwind of emotions: sorrow, guilt, anger, numbness, and even moments of joy. Processing it means giving yourself permission to feel and honour those emotions, however messy or uncomfortable they may seem. Here are some ways The Grief Collection can support you:

1. Turning Toward Your Emotions

Grief often brings up feelings we’d rather avoid. But turning toward those emotions with compassion is the first step in healing. Classes like Turning Toward Emotions Meditation (30 mins) and Emotional Awareness Healing (23 mins) help you connect with your inner world and give those feelings the space they need to move through you.

2. Releasing Anger and Frustration

Anger is a natural part of grief, but it can feel heavy to carry. Somatic practices like Release Anger + Find Inner Peace (55 mins) and Embodied Anger Release (30 mins) provide a safe container to process and let go of anger, freeing up space for peace and clarity.

3. Letting Go and Surrendering

Letting go doesn’t mean forgetting. It means making peace with what was and finding room for what’s next. Classes like Surrender + Let Go Sound Journey (43 mins) and Yin for Surrendering – Metal Element (75 mins) offer gentle ways to release what no longer serves you.

4. Honouring Sadness

Sadness deserves to be felt. It’s an expression of love and loss, and holding space for it is deeply healing. The Hold + Release Sadness Ritual (20 mins) and Saying Goodbye Meditation (25 mins) invite you to honour your sadness with tenderness and care.

5. Finding Compassion and Self-Love

Grief can leave us feeling fragile, but it also opens a door to deeper compassion and love for ourselves. Classes like Yin Therapy for Compassion + Self Love (70 mins) and Embody Love Meditation (15 mins) nurture your spirit and remind you of your inner strength.
