When life gets messy, emotions get messy and you may feel as though you’re a mess … even though intellectually, you’re doing okay…
The quality of our lives doesn’t rely solely on our intellect, it also depends on our emotional health and the support systems we’ve got to maintain that health. Most folks aren’t taught how to maintain emotional health, instead they’re taught intellectual strategies for understanding, ignoring, or coping with pain so that they can get back to work and silently carry on. Few of us ever learned how to name our emotions honestly and to heal our heart when it hurts.
In order to heal messy emotional pain you need tools that work on your emotions, not intellectual rationalizations for why you hurt.
Grief Recovery teaches people how to heal emotional pain using emotional tools.
… because trying to heal an emotional pain with intellect, is like trying to paint a wall with a hammer…
… it just makes a mess …
