Grief and Loss

Grief and loss are universal experiences, yet as a society, we struggle to handle them effectively. The intense emotions that come with grief, such as sadness, anger, denial, shock, and horror, can be uncomfortable for others to witness, and well-intentioned statements can often miss the mark, causing more harm than good. As someone who is grieving, you may find yourself caring for others even though you are the one experiencing the loss. It’s not an easy situation, but we can help.

At Blue Kite Wellness, we understand that grief is a personal and unpredictable process that varies from person to person. Some individuals are “action grievers,” throwing themselves into work or other activities, while others are “emotion grievers,” struggling to manage their feelings and return to daily activities. Regardless of how you process grief, it’s challenging to move forward and re-engage with life as you once knew it.

Therapy has been shown to be beneficial in reducing grief symptoms, improving mental health, and accepting the reality of loss. At Blue Kite Wellness, we offer a holistic approach to support your journey through grief. Our services include mind-body approaches such as mindfulness/meditation, yoga, sound baths, and energy healing, among others. We also believe in treating the whole person, emphasizing the importance of self-care, including nutrition, physical activity, social connection, professional wellbeing, and hobbies.
