Healing from grief: 6 mindful techniques to find peace

From sitting with our emotions to appreciating the happy memories, here are a few mindful techniques to heal from grief.

Grief is very personal. The way one views grief and finds a way to navigate through it depends on various factors. But the way to get over grief is the way through it.

It is important to learn to be empathetic and calm with ourselves when we walk through grief to find peace.

Instead of running away from our emotions, we should learn to sit with them and let it happen to us, without being judgmental about feeling the way we feel.

We should shut down the inner critic and treat ourselves with softness and compassion – the same way we would have treated a close friend or a loved one in the same situation.

One of the hardest things about dealing with grief is flashbacks of good times. Instead of running away from it, we should immerse ourselves in the happy memories and respect them.

 We should turn to the positive aspects of life and learn to be grateful. We should grow a positive perspective by appreciating loved ones.
