Good Grief
Things that "Shouldn't Happen" Do
This statement is the epitome of fighting reality. The bottom line is unpleasant things do happen.
These painful experiences are designed to bring us back to higher realms of peace. And resisting the unbearable is part of the first stage of grief.
It’s called shock.
This includes dizzying confusion and is natural & normal. It’s your psyches way of protecting you.

Life Will Break You
Nobody can protect you from that,
and living alone won’t either,
for solitude will also break you
with it’s yearning.
You have to love. You have to feel.
It is the reason you are here on earth.
You are here to risk your heart.
You are here to be swallowed up.
And when it happens that you are broken,
or betrayed, or left, or hurt,
or death brushes near,
let yourself sit by an apple tree
and listen to the apples falling
all around you in heaps,
wasting their sweetness.
Tell yourself you tasted as
many as you could.”

Stages of Grief
SHOCK, DENIAL, ANGER, DEPRESSION, GUILT, ACCEPTANCE and down the road,
transcending JOY
Usually in this order and yet years later, I will experience residue of grief again in no particular order at all.
The grieving process isn’t over in one pass and may surface again years later, perhaps triggered by an anniversary or the Holidays.
Though, it tends to be less intense each time it comes back around. This just means there is more residue to welcome and release.
Embracing your emotions will leave you free of the heavy affects of unprocessed despair.
7 Quick Steps to Release Grief
Allow the surfacing emotion free of thought.
Notice the energy in the feeling vibration without labeling it in your body.
Feel the energy, the power in the emotion.
Feel acceptance for the feeling just the way it is.
Feel love for the energy/power in the emotion now.
Feel love for yourself while allowing this process.
Notice the energy in the feeling vibration as it intensifies, lessons or completely dissolves.
Now take a deep breath and check inside.
You have just permanently
transcended a layer of raw emotion,
for good. It's really that simple.
Repeat as needed.
After much practice and of course, with time,
your capacity for joy will grow exponentially.
Every feeling is some aspect of joyfulness.
Don’t take my word for it. Give yourself to
the 7 step formula above.
