Dear Grief:

I know that you are here for a reason to teach me something. I am open to that, because I really don’t want to have to go through this ever again. But it still feels to me like you broke me in two. Sometimes I don’t even want to go on. It’s tough. Something just keeps telling me to put one foot in front of the other every day. I hope you are gone soon, because I hate this. I hate you. The only thing that keeps me holding on is that I know that someday you will be a distant memory and I can’t wait. I can’t wait to say goodbye to you.

Anne.

Mourning is a part of the healing process and it is there for a reason, but that doesn’t mean you have to be controlled by it. Just when you think that there is nothing left to lose, you will find the first stitches of hope are being sewn into the tapestry of your day-to-day life. If you acknowledge the process, by voicing your side of it, it can bring you back from the edge of despair. Believe that your intuition has the power to help you heal.

Spiritual Practice: Pack Up Your Worries

I have a box on a shelf in my office on which I have written one word: Surrender. Whenever I have a worry or concern I feel is starting to rent out a room in my brain—usually because I am mulling it over endlessly to the point of obsession—I pull down my Surrender box.

First, I take out an index card and I write out whatever my concern might be. I did this exercise with a client recently; here is what she wrote:

I really don’t want anything to do with my ex-husband anymore, but he tries to communicate with me every time he drops off or picks up our two boys. I really don’t want my kids to see me act badly toward him, so I try to act nice, but he uses this to get to me all the time. I feel stuck. He hurt me so badly, I don’t even want to talk to him or be near him. Everything I’ve tried just hasn’t worked. He doesn’t get that I need boundaries. I’m surrendering this and asking for some divine guidance here.

After she finished writing this, I asked her to turn the card over and summarize her concern with a question that she would like to get an answer to. She wrote, “How can I get my husband to respect my boundaries?”

Next, I asked that she surround the card with a bubble of white light before she placed it in her Surrender box. She kept her box on her desk, where she could see it often, but rarely ever opened it. She let it go and knew that an answer would come at the right time. It could come in the form of images, or a flash of insight, or words or feelings, but eventually it would come.
