How do you get stuck in grief? What is your pattern?

Here is how your catch-release-replace bad habits of grief. Use the tool called "chain analysis." Keep up the good grief!

Building Self Awareness - step one of good grieving. And working through your "old stuff" one step at a time. Reprocessing hurts with affirmation and love.

We welcome Lisa back. She has much to share about how Grounding and now starting Grieving has shaped her life and ministry. Be encouraged by her stories!

Time to learn about GOOD grief. Grief is good (not fun or enjoyable) and very important for our growth. Do you ever get stuck in a stage or season of grief? We all do. Learn to recognize the stage you are in and work through it, rather than getting stuck there.

We have spent a lot of time together on Grounding and developing Grounding skills, rooted and built up in Christ. Now we move on to the realities that we all must face as we garden our lives, pruning! The Master Gardener uses pruning, as any good gardener would, to cut off the branches that are not needed and make way for New Growth. Human pruning results in Grieving, and we need every one of those Grounding skills to help us through seasons of grief (loss, change, hurt...). Let's get started!
