The death of a loved one will change your entire life.
Every area of your life will be affected by the death of a
loved one. Our world is irreparably changed by the simple fact that our love
one is no longer a part of it. Learning to live in this new world can be
challenging, as we slowly make our way towards our new lives without the
physical presence of our loved ones. How does the death of a loved one affect
you, and what can you do to ensure a happy, meaningful and rewarding life after
your loved one has died? You will be challenged physically, mentally,
emotionally and spiritually by the death of your loved one. Every level of your
existence will come into question, as you re-frame, examine and process your
loss throughout your grief journey. The body-mind-soul connection is clearly recognized in the
grieving individual. The enormous emotional upheaval experienced at the death
of a loved one often weakens the physical body, causing many mourners to
experience various aches and pains. Death is very hard to wrap your mind
around. The closer the relationship (and therefore, the emotional investment)
is to the deceased, the more profound the effect. Short term memory loss is
common, and though frustrating, it usually disappears within a few months. Much
more difficult to process is the actual relationship with the deceased, it's
highlights and low points, and the eternal question of 'what if'. Regrets seem
insurmountable when you have no recourse for correcting them.
