A few years ago, I shared the entire chapter on grief from one of my self-help books, here. Below, you will find the questions and tasks related to that chapter which are contained in the workbook designed to go with that book. They have been formulated to help you make sense of your sadness so as not to be weighed down by the emotional side of it. This does not make the pain go away but it does give it meaning – this will help you endure. You must read the entire chapter before you begin the exercises.
Happy Healing!
1/ How would you define grief?
2/ How has grief affected you? (Describe at least one experience)
3/ Describe the connection between grief and self-transformation. How is it related to transformational healing?
4/ Describe (briefly) the three principles of my grief theory.
5/ T3™ relates to one of the three principles. Which one?
6/ How do you express your emotions when grieving?
7/ Recall a period of grief in your life. Outline how you experienced this loss in relation to each of the principles. If you cannot do this for yourself, interview a friend, relative, neighbor or colleague about her/his experience.
