How to Manage Stress: Grief with Sue O'Brien

How to Manage Stress with Tricia Woolfrey

Show Notes

Grief is both an emotion and a process. Grief affects us all at some time or another. That much is predictable. But what is not predictable is how it will impact us.

We are all different and it is important to honour our own grief and in this conversation with Sue O'Brien who has worked with Cruse and has a lot of experience in this area, we will explore the complexities of grief and how you can help yourself - or someone you care about - through it.

In this conversation we discuss:

- the nature of grief

- the different ways people can respond to this emotion

- how you can support yourself through the process of grief

- how not to support yourself when experiencing grief

- how you can support someone else who is bereaved

- things to say and to avoid saying
