After the first week and while doing the homework, the fog began to lift. I was able to feel something again

The program was very beneficial to myself and showed me other areas where the "grief recovery" would work to resolve "unresolved issues" concerning others.

The program has helped me heal. It has taught me a lot of valuable life lessons. For example, it taught me that grief is okay and that the best thing that we can do for someone who is grieving is to listen to them and be by their side. This program taught me what emotional incompleteness is and it inspired me to communicate my emotions more. It also taught me that there is a lot of power in reading your significant emotional statements out loud in front of others. Furthermore, it taught me that loving others is accepting them as they are and not for whom we want them to be. Most importantly, it helped me heal from the grief that my father's absence caused me. I am very grateful for this program.

I really enjoyed participating in this program because allowed me to reflect on the various experiences in my own life that have shaped me into who I am today. It was healing for me to look back on relationships and other losses and find the goodness that came from them regardless of how it may have ended.

This program gave me great strategies to use when recovering from grief. It also helped me to realize that there are many different types of grief, and that grief is not only related to the death of a loved one. I came to realize that recovering from grief is the path to happiness.

When I went to the info session I went to support my friend mostly. After listening to all the information, I realized how much this could benefit me as well. It is definitely heart work, which is the term our facilitator told us the very first night. The program has helped me so much in how I deal with others now that my own reaction can sometimes shock me. What a great new outlook on life. I am definitely more free.

The program has worked very well for me. I used the program guidelines to deal with the deaths of two family members several years in the past. The program allowed me to release a lot of the pain around these deaths and to embrace some good memories from the past which, up until then, I hadn't been able to access.

I am interested in becoming certified to lead this kind of recovery group in the future. There is much that I learned through the reading that helped me realize that we are all ill-adjusted to accepting grief and loss in our lives. I appreciated the knowledge the class brought me in addition to the closure I received with my losses.

everytime I read the book it was either a lightbulb went off or the book was reading my deepest thoughts and feelings. It brought so much insight into how I Grieve and a deep understanding of the why and how’s. The homework assignments were crucial in how they not only cultivated my self awareness but the group allowed a space for me to say what I needed to say out loud and bring my loss’ to light. Since GRM-I have already experienced 2 great loss’ (the death of my sister, and my grandmothers dementia). During this I was able to process the loss in a healthy way. My husband and my mother both verbally said they noticed how well I’m responding to the circumstances. I’m not reacting out of anger or isolating myself. I believe this group is SO crucial in helping complete past loss’ and coping with current or future circumstances or loss’. I’m very grateful for this program!

This program showed me the tools to cope with grief and trauma. It opened my eyes to things i was literally not aware of. Set me free from the past.

Although I was very reluctant to go to class, I found it rewarding to push through. I found the structure useful as I worked through my strong emotions of grief and loss.
Support Groups04/14/2019Participant in Austin, TX
Although it was difficult to look back and actually write things out, it helped me move out of so much pain. I wanted to be able to say to myself, “I did this to make my life better.” The stars on this question aren’t working and I want to say “Outstanding”
