Grief 101: What is Grief?

Grief has been compared to an ocean wave—it can come on unexpectedly and powerfully, knocking you off your feet. Whether you are early in your grief journey, a seasoned veteran, or helping someone else navigate their own time of grief, it helps to regularly go back to the basics. That’s the idea behind these Grief 101 episodes, to build a foundation that helps us grieve well. In this first episode, Megs shares the physical and emotional affect grief has on our bodies and brains, and shares applicable practices to help you navigate the early weeks.
