Finding Grace in Grief with AmarAtma Khalsa
To kick off this brand new season, we discuss grief with AmarAtma Khalsa, a Grief Specialist and Coach. With a dual Master's Degree in Chinese Medicine and Ministry as well as experience as a Board Certified Chaplain at both adult and children's hospitals, AmarAtma integrates a variety of practices including somatic exercises, breathing techniques, mindfulness, and self-love. This unique approach helps alleviate the heaviness, overwhelm, and powerlessness that often comes with grief, which ultimately, can help any person transform their life after loss. In this episode, we first tackle the definition of grief. We explore why grief is not talked about nearly enough with one another (and why we should). Amaratma then helps to distinguish between healthy versus unhealthy ways of grieving. We also discuss the importance of grief work for better health and practical approaches for those in the active grieving process. And we have a special offer this season with short guided meditations at the end of the episodes so you can practice on your own and revisit them at any time. To anyone who has experienced loss, big or small, and suffered from grief, I dedicate this episode, from my heart to yours. I truly hope that this discussion helps you along your journey of healing.
