Collective Grief And How To Move Through It

Collective Grief And How To Move Through It

“Go into your grief, for there your soul will grow.” —Carl Jung

Grieving is a powerful and personal journey. It is an inevitable part of living. Eventually we all grieve something or someone. If you’ve lost a child or parent, or a friend, lover, or spouse, you know that grief has the power to transform.

We usually live within the illusion that we are in control. That is, we live a certain way until something happens to shatter our perception. The resulting dissolution—or you might say disillusion—that follows is actually the beginning of a remarkable process of being healed. It marks the first stage in the grief journey.
