Navigating Grief
Many people think of grief as an emotional experience or state attached to the death of a loved one. Grief, however, is not limited to death-related losses alone. Grief can arise from several experiences in a person's life. Some common examples include, but are not limited to job loss, chronic pain, friendship fallouts, romantic breakups, the death of pets, childhood trauma, moving homes or countries, social justice implications, parents divorcing, a pandemic, witnessing others grieving, etc. Grief is a part of the human experience, meaning that at some point or another, we will all experience it throughout our lifetime.
