Lesson 1 of 6 · What grief actually does

The one sentence

Noticing and naming. Nothing about how you grieve changes this week.

The move

Letting today be what it is

5 minutes or less

In the morning, notice which kind of day it is. A day for facing the loss, or a day for dealing with what it changed.
Do not make it be the other one.
If it is a practical day, do practical things without calling it avoidance.
If it is a loss day, let it be, and lower what you expect of yourself accordingly.

If it does not work

If it changes three times in a day, that is the model working exactly as described. Moving between the two is what coping looks like, not evidence of instability.

Write the one sentence

A specific plan works better than a good intention. Fill both halves in your own words.

When

I will
