15 May Grieve Your Losses And Feel Better Faster
One of the strange realities of life is that we often have to feel worse in order to feel better. This is definitely the case when we grieve a loss. Whether it’s the loss of a pet, a relationship, a hope, a dream, a job, our health, or a person, we’re going to feel bad. While we might let ourselves feel bad for a little while, we’re often quick to hurry on to other things so we don’t have negative feelings for too long. What most people don’t realize is that if you take the time to truly feel and process your feelings, you’ll feel better faster. Here’s a technique that will help you to do that:
So don’t forget to process your feelings by: **talking about them to someone who is a good listener **writing about them in a journal **talking out loud about them when you are alone **talking to God about your feelings *listening to, singing, or writing a song that expresses what you are feeling
