Cope with Pet Loss: Finding the Right Grief Support for You
Grief is a reaction that responds to loss, particularly to someone, an animal, a thing, or a space to which you are deeply bonded. Whether you have lost a loved one, including your pets, a relationship, a job, a business, a space, your health, a lifestyle, or a long-held dream, grieving is a natural process that enables us to work through the natural emotions to arrive at the end of acceptance and restored peace, love, and harmony again.
No one will really understand how you are feeling, as bereavement is a highly individual and complex experience, and no two people respond the same way to the losses associated with the death of a loved one.
Grieving is like the waves of the ocean; the mixed emotions and feelings will come and go naturally. Your mood and energy will feel like high tide sometimes and low tide at other times. Some days you will feel more hurt, and after a good cry, you may feel better and healed. Then suddenly something triggers you, and all the emotions and memories come back like being hit by a high wave tide, and the process starts again.
This is very normal; do not feel bad about yourselves or listen to what others expect you to do. No one will really understand how you are going through; you are unique, and take your time to heal. It is important who you talk to; it may make you feel better or drain you even more.
Grieving is a very important lesson for us. If we don’t take time to grieve, the energy around the loss will build up inside us and cause disharmony in our body, mind, and spirit. If left untreated, we may develop illnesses and other problems that affect our daily life.
The National Psychologist (newspaper) reported, "Traumatic grief symptoms seldom diminish after the second half of the first year following loss. Symptoms may actually increase as time goes on. Subjects with traumatic grief are at increased risk of developing cancer and other illnesses. Should grief remain unresolved, this vulnerability becomes part of the individual’s nervous system, hardwired, so to speak, in the neurochemical substrate."
In our modern society, most of us will not give ourselves time to grieve and heal. We will keep ourselves busy to get on with life quickly. We try to hide our feelings and emotions, and this shuts down our hearts. This causes blockages for us in giving and receiving love. These people often think they are strong and have healed, but any time something triggers them, the feelings of loss will come back again because they have chosen to deny facing the losses. Only when you accept loss, love and healing will take place.
If you require support for healing from grief or simply need someone to converse with, you have the option of engaging in a healing session to aid you in progressing through life more swiftly. Healing serves as a method to assist you in opening your heart, releasing and moving past the energy that is hindering your progress in life. Every instance of grief that we encounter serves as a spiritual lesson. Those who have successfully navigated the healing process have gained valuable insights and have undergone positive changes on their journey.
