Grief is an inevitable part of life. Yet too often, we try to rush through it or ignore it altogether. In this meaningful conversation, hospital Chaplain Joon “J.S.” Park joins to share practical reflections on this important part of our life journey. We delve into the many components of the grieving process. We explore the unexpected questions that show up. Questions like: How much time do I need? Why are some people so emotional while others seem detached? What’s the best way to grieve?
We reflect on why we all need to give ourselves permission to grieve, and why that’s so hard to do. We lean into the neuroscience of grief, and we even consider the surprising ways joy and laughter emerge. Whether or not you’re currently grieving or supporting someone who is, this episode will encourage you and equip you with refreshing tools and perspectives.
