About this episode
<p>By its very nature, this expert episode on grief is raw and emotional, and some tears were shed in the making of it. But Psychotherapist, best-selling author, and podcaster, <a href="https://juliasamuel.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Julia Samuel</a>, is here to guide us through the many shades of grief; something which impacts all our lives in one way or another and particularly in midlife. </p><br><p>Julia very generously answers your questions on everything from practical ways to support loved ones who are grieving, dealing with living losses such as divorce, and visualisation techniques which can help to stop you from ruminating on the “what if’s” that come with a loss which is open-ended or without conclusion. Alongside her practical advice, Julia also speaks about some of the fundamentals when it comes to bereavement; why grieving always takes longer than anyone wants, the power of walking and talking, the compounding effect of multiple losses, and how grieving together helps us to build strong familial bonds. </p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
