Unresolved Grief Lives in the Body — Try This Creative Release Practice

Описание: Unresolved Grief — A Creative, Visual Way to Meet Your Big Emotions

Traditional journal prompts keep us in the thinking mind — analyzing, looping, overthinking — and often nothing shifts. In this video, I share how my Creative Reflection Pages process helps you move into the grief you’re carrying, so true transformation can emerge.

02:10 How Stored Grief Lives in the Body
04:07 Your Journal as a Safe Container for Emotions
05:01 The Creative Reflection Pages Process Explained
06:32 The Key Question What Grief Am I Still Carrying

This practice blends:
✨ honesty
🎨 simple visual expression
🧠 embodied reflection
🌀 meaningful integration

It invites you to meet grief not just with words — but with body, symbol, and intuition. This is especially designed for women 55+ who find themselves in liminal transitions — retirement, empty nest, identity shifts, loss, change — wanting depth, clarity, and soulful presence without overwhelm.

Your supplies (simple & welcoming):
🪞 Journal or blank paper
✍️ Favorite pen
🎨 Oil pastels, markers, or water-soluble pencils
🧡 Openness to feel

Try this prompt with me:
🖋 “What grief am I still carrying?”

Let the page carry you — through prompt, reflect, create, and integrate.
