The Leftover Pieces; Suicide Loss Conversations

Practice Makes Perfect; Discussing this Big Concept


Listen Later

In life after suicide loss there is a lot to practice ---and today I talk about practicing our practices!! I go "Down the Rabbit Hole"

Today I cover:

  • Tools after loss as practices - what are they??
  • Why practice doesn't make perfect.
  • The two reasons we practice.
  • Grief doesn't just go away - aka why tools are crucial 
  • Why it's HOW we practice makes the difference (aka-choices)
  • And MORE. Valuable. Nuggets!!

I almost didn't release this one --- because I am human and sometimes doubt if my thoughts have any value to share -- but after listening again, I realize it DOES! This even came up recently in a group I was in and I thought --"Holy Cow! I recorded these thoughts and didn't put them out!" It was my "A-Ha!" Moment!. I hope you take something from it - I sure did the second time around...this is for you Dustine!
