Have you ever wondered, "What is a “Grief Support Group”?
A Grief Support Group is a place you can come and tell your story of loss, whatever that loss may be (friend, pet, family, job, divorce, health, etc.). It’s a safe place where confidentiality is primary and the sharing of our stories is kept within the group and not shared. And everyone is welcome.
Telling our stories of loss, no matter how hard, frustrating and scary it may be, helps our bodies release old and stagnant emotions that get stuck in our bodies. Releasing our emotions of loss allows room for new lighter emotions.
It’s like the Biblical story in Luke 5:37-39
"And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved. And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, 'The old is better."
