Grief Isn't What You Think It Is—Here's What Actually Heals
This video features a discussion about the power of thoughts and their impact on life, emphasizing the choice between suffering and love. We explore how "mind power" is crucial for personal well-being, highlighting the significance of "positive thinking" in daily life. This serves as a guide for "personal growth" and an understanding of the "power of thought" to achieve a "positive mindset" and change your reality. 🚀
Ligia M. Houben MA, FT, FAAGC, CPC, CHT, is the founder of My Meaningful Life, LLC and The Center for Transforming Lives in Miami, Fl where she consults with individuals and families; by offering coaching/support, groups and workshops. Ligia is the author of four books on grief: The self-help book Transform Your Loss. Your Guide to Strength and Hope, Counseling Hispanics Through Loss, Grief, and Bereavement. A Guide for Mental Health Professionals, and Transforming Grief and Loss. Workbook (for coaches and mental health professionals). And her book in Spanish “Déjame vivir mi duelo…y sanar de adentro hacia afuera”.
In this episode I engage in a heartfelt conversation with Ligia M. Houben, a grief expert from Nicaragua. Ligia shares her personal journey of loss, beginning with the death of her father when she was just 12 years old. This profound experience shaped her life and led her to study psychology and grief, ultimately discovering her purpose in helping others navigate their own grief. Ligia emphasizes that grief is not just sadness; it can manifest in various ways, including physical symptoms and emotional turmoil. She highlights the importance of acknowledging and expressing these emotions to facilitate healing.
As the conversation unfolds, Ligia introduces her 11 Principles of Transformation, which serve as a guide for those dealing with loss. These principles encourage individuals to accept their loss, live their grief, and develop their spiritual dimension, among other steps. Ligia's insights are rooted in her own experiences, including the recent loss of her mother, which she navigated with both professional knowledge and personal vulnerability.
