It allowed me to bring feelings to surface that that I didn't know was there. It also made me realize major things that I always pushed aside.

help open up new area of grief... Had to search on new grief topics/avenue... Did many a graph in my life, but not one on my son accidental deaf... Has shown me to open up on 'can of thorns in my feet' Did a 'goodbye' letter, for my dad years ago, but had a friend help me with that as he replied as a father would. That was very helpful. Was really hard to do that for my son, as our relation was on a 'very low' scale after a divorce, and girlfriend was very cold towards me.

I feel it made me really think through the losses and sort them out and deal with them in an orderly well structured format. I had really thought this was just the way life would be. To find this course and be able to find the tools to deal with and move on from my grief is so amazing. I’m excited to take what I have learned and sort out some other difficult relationships in my life. Feeling excited about being free from stuff that has bothered me for years!!

The program is structured. There is a real purpose for it. It gives closure to very difficult emotional life experiences. I contribute my experience to not only well researched material but also to an amazing facilitator. Timothy Hess was clear,concise and very powerful in his delivery of the material. Timothy knows the pain and the process of grief. He carefully instructed and led us through the material. Again the program is GREAT and the Facilitator made it work! Thank you Grief Recovery and Timothy Hess!!!

I know myself and realize that I probably wouldn’t have done the work without a class to provide that accountability. Had already read the book on my own. We just finished a week ago, so I think I will need more time to evaluate how the program has worked for me.

As I said earlier, I’ve been through grief counseling and another grief group; they were very helpful during my first year; however after nearly five years my husband passed, there was still a lot of emptiness, regret, and anger even though I was moving on..someone new in my life and retirement...the anger persisted. GR really opened my eyes to the MANY losses in my life I never really dealt with and helped provid the breakthroughs and understanding the angers I was carrying in my back pocket making it difficult to have closure over his death...GR has given me hope as self forgiveness, forgiveness, and healing are now in progress.❤️ Outstanding!

It has helped me to learn how to find the missteps or disbelief in society as how you are to react to tragic events. It is OK to have sorrow and not feel guilty about it.

The grief recovery method helped me to realize that grief is not only about death of a person. There are so many grief losses. I learned how to cope with my inner feelings and what was amazing, I learned what STERBS were to which I didn't know about. It has taught me that I can cry out and not have to worry about what others have to say. It gave me a safe space to be myself and not to be ashamed of who I am and what I was going through while grieving. I learned to forgive myself and everyone that I hurt, too. I really enjoyed the grief recovery specialists, they made me feel comfortable throughout the whole session. This method helped me to heal my broken-heart and to feel free and be able to move forward with my life. I will do it over and over again.

The program helped me realise how much emotional baggage I was still carrying around inside. It also taught me the skills needed to address loss and get through it, and put it to rest in a positive way. EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE THIS COURSE!!!!
