About this listen

Today, we talked about how grief affects the brain. It’s not just something we feel emotionally, grief shows up in the way our brain works too. It can make it harder to think clearly, remember things, or even make simple decisions.

And the truth is, grief doesn’t look the same for everyone. It depends on the relationship and how we show our love. Some people cry, some go quiet, some feel numb, others feel everything all at once. There’s no right or wrong way to grieve.

Grief shows up in your body, your thoughts, and your heart and when you understand what’s happening inside, you can give yourself a little more compassion. So if you’re feeling foggy, scattered, or just not like yourself, you’re not broken. You’re grieving.
