Pillar 5 – Mind and Body
About the event
This session is part of the Grief Academy course Julia Samuel’s Pillars of Strength.
Grief has a profound effect on body and mind. It can cause brain fog, repetitive thought patterns, flashbacks and racing thoughts, alongside a host of physical symptoms including pain, fatigue and sleep problems. However, there are things we can do to tune into what we’re feeling and soothe our bodies and minds. Strategies like meditation, breathwork, or certain types of movement can help wind down that sense of hyper-alertness and build our emotional resilience.
In this session, Julia covers:
- How do the mind and body affect each other?
- How can movement help us work through our grief?
- What tools can we use to manage anxiety and be kind to ourselves when we are hyper-aroused?
- How can we develop good habits which support us when we’re grieving?
Julia Samuel’s Pillars of Strength offers immediate access to eight recorded webinars – and accompanying resources – on demand for six months.
