The number of emotions that we experience when we are grieving the death of somebody we care about can be overwhelming. We are often told to “not think about it” or “let go,” which are much easier said than done. In comes Mindfulness- a practice in which we lean inwards and pay non-judgmental attention to our thoughts, feelings, the surrounding environment, and more. By doing the opposite of “not thinking about it,” we may disarm the hold that these thoughts and feelings have on us.

Watch this discussion on the beneficial role that Mindfulness can play in our grief journeys. We discuss tips for getting started and also engage in some introductory Mindfulness practices during the workshop.
