❤️‍🩹 Navigating Grief with Compassion and Healing: Heart-felt Intuitive Insights

Grief is that heavy burden we all will one day have to bare. It often leaves us feeling like we've been swallowed up by the world.

In a recent podcast I listened to I heard David Kessler (Grief Healer) & Tyler Henry (The Hollywood Medium) both remarkable experts in their respective fields speaking about grief and what their clients tend to experience. They've also both authored a few bestselling books which you may find interesting.

During the podcast they were discussing the complexities of grief with the importance of compassion along with healing during the challenging times of dealing with loss in our lives.

This is my personal take on what I also feel is valid about what they shared + a few golden nuggets I picked up to possibly help make your own grieving process a little more manageagble.

Compassion Fatigue: A Real Concern

Compassion fatigue, a term discussed in the podcast, is the emotional toll taken when caring for others dealing with their own emotional experiences. This secondary trauma can sometimes become overwhelming.

But how can you tell if you're experiencing compassion fatigue?

Warning signs include:

🦋 Feelings of helplessness

🦋 Reduced empathy

🦋 Exhaustion from emotional demands

🦋 Emotional detachment

🦋 And a loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable.

Death: Is The Great Equalizer..

The reality is, death is the one experience we all will share. It's a journey of growth and soul expansion. And no one can buy their way out of it. The death rate is 100% + I like to say you won’t normally see a U-Haul following a hearse because all the things we think meant so much while we're here really don't mean as much as previously believed.

It’s more about the love we are lucky enough to share with one another while we're here, alive and well. I find death is also a deeply humbling universal truth and it's something we must embrace as an inevitable part of our life experience.

A Work in Progress: Grief Transformation

Grief is not a one-size-fits-all process. It's a transformational expereince, an ongoing journey, and an opportunity for deep personal soul growth + It never fully ends. However I believe we learn over time how to adapt and cope with it.

The experience of death changes us, often making us more compassionate with others as well as ourselves. These difficult moments can also help us recognize the importance of spending quality time with loved ones and keeping our connections strong.

If you are missing a loved one who is still here on Earth consider this a gentle reminder and wake up call to reach out and connect with them. No one knows what day will be their last.

Reconnecting with Loved Ones

Finding ways to reconnect with loved ones who've passed away can be a healing and awakening process where multiple new doors may be opened unto you.

Some of these ways might involve visiting a favorite spot, holding a cherished possession close, or simply celebrating the beautiful soul that your loved ones were and still are. Speaking about and to them also helps to keep their memory and presence alive, because love never dies. Booking a Mediumship session with a qualified Professional Medium is one of the best ways I can recommend for helping to heal your grieving heart.

Although I don't recommend clients come to a session directly after a loss. It's important to take the time needed to begin the grieving process. Although everyone is unique in their experiences with death. I've also read for cleints that have lost someone and they felt called to book a session right away and they've had what I can only explain as a miraculous healing. But the thing is they knew intuitively that they were ready to hear from their loved on on the other side.

Spirit says: Get Busy Living..

As the famous quote goes,

"Get busy living or get busy dying."

Our departed loved ones want nothing more for us than to embrace life fully, without guilt or regret. They're cheering us on from the other side, encouraging us to continue to live our best lives. Remember, they've only crossed over into the next room, they're not gone. Plus their happiness is intertwined with our own.

If you cannot feel or sense them it could be because you are still in deep grief. Once in Spirit they reside at a much higher vibration then while here on Earth. In order to connect with them we have to raise our vibration and they have to slow theirs down. This is where being a Medium comes in as a intermediary.

Often times you may feel you need the help and support of a Medium to validate what you're perceiving and this is completely normal.

Finding a Balance between Grief and Life.

Grieving fully and living fully are two essential components of the healing process. Grief healers and Mediums can provide support, helping individuals find a balance emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically. Although they cannot take away the pain of loss for anyone. We all must go through this process in order to move forward and begin to heal.

I find in the work I offer I combine the power of these roles as an Evidential Psychic Medium and Energy/Grief Healer and it often delivers peace and validation which is much needed during the grieving process.

These are the 5 stages of Grief which can arise in any order as shared in the book On Grief & Grieving by the early Pioneer in this subject, Elizabeth Kübler Ross.

And lastly after you have your session with a qualified medium or grief healer they should leave you in a happier state than when you came to them.

Mediums & Grief Healers can’t take away your pain. However what they can do is sit with you during your grief and allow you to experience it fully holding a safe space for a peaceful connection, allowing you to feel like you’ve had a beautiful reconnection with those that you love.
