How to Heal After Someone You Love Transitions
Commune with their spirit or non-physical self
The passing of someone close to you is a sensitive subject. It’s extremely personal. It’s unique to everybody. And it’s one of those transformative human experiences that cannot be avoided and is completely out of your control.
The only next step is through it, and no two people grieve and heal in the same way for someone (e.g., a mother heals different than a father when a child passes). It’s a heavy, heavy lesson to carry throughout life, but there are ways to heal.
What hurts the most is the loss of their physical presence. You are left to live your life without their physical self. But this doesn’t mean you can’t commune with their spirit or non-physical self. You can. It’s a very real option if you allow it. It requires an expansion of your spiritual self in ways that may seem unconventional in our conditioned world, but who cares? Our souls have incarnated into this lifetime to expand, to learn, and to experience human life. Feel free during your healing process to do whatever heals your soul, regardless of what others may think.
There are endless ways to heal, but I relied on three approaches over many years to navigate the loss of a spouse, a brother, a pet, and friends.
