    The more I sink into the pain the better I feel when I come out the other side. My husband died suddenly 7 weeks ago and I am accepting that grief is now part of my life. The rollercoaster of emotions that overwhelm me are welcome now. I came to the realization that my husband IS me. We are one. Separated in physical form and reunited in death.

    This is one of the most authentic videos on grief I have ever viewed. I get so many visits from my transitioned husband....authentic HIM....his energy throughout my body, his touch, his embrace....

      My cat got hit by one or more cars in November last year. She was only 5. I miss her so much😢 I get triggered very often and then have to cry but there are also days I can talk or think about her and I'm in peace. There is a lot of guilt I feel when thinking about her. On one side I think that this had to happen (and there were many signs for that) on the other side I have the feeling that I made wrong decisions that led to this death and therefore its my fault. The truth is that I would have lost her anyway sooner or later. I didnt even think about that when getting her. But she gave me so much love in these 5 years and I am so greatful for our time ❤
      Maybe it's like teal said that we have to feel grief in order to feel love and oneness

      I lost my wonderful cat 1.5 years ago, and just recentlt I have actually begun to grieve her loss.
      I am a mess. I wish I gave her more love in the time we had, spoiled her more. Wish I stayed with her when the time came - we were separated at the vet for a moment. When I saw her again She was not there anymore... I feel like I can never make up for that.

    My dad passed away to days ago. It was the most traumatic experience ever. I've been crying for two days. Now it's been 3 hours feeling better. I guess you just have to feel the paint until you feel yourself cracking to pieces and continue crying and feeling the pain. Suddenly you dry out. There's no more painful emotion to cry out cause you've already let it out. And you understand and accept what happened in a way that's not painful anymore and you are left just with the joy of being so lucky to had this person in your life, and you thank all the happy moments with that person. And you feel love. Not sure if is your own love or the love of everything, but you feel it. suppose I'll always feel sad because I'll never see him again. But the pain is going away and the sadness is still present but I hope it will get better. I'll have ups and downs I guess but I think I'll be OK with what happened. I'm already OK for the moment. Just appreciate life and be grateful of every moment. And remember we will all pass away and we always think we have time to do things and say things to other, but hey, you better do it now that you can. Thank you Teal for existing and dedicating your time to help others and sharing your amazing wisdom and love. I also have to say I thought my consciousness was hight and that I could use that in traumatic times like losing relatives. Far from the truth. When I arrived at the bed of my died father, all I learned reading your books and videos did nothing. Meaned nothing. I just felt in hell and tried hard to be in the present moment but I could help feeling I was living the situation as if I was out of my body, I was in shock and could belive it. It was like being in a sad movie witch I could not stop watching. There was not stop bottom, I could do anything to stop those events, and I was devastated. I haven't felt anger, or anything else but sadness. If you are in a grieving process like me I hope you hace the strength to let yourself be as sad as you have to be. Don't listen to anyone that tells you to be strong, we will be strong, when the time comes.

    A friend shared the link to this video and I am grateful not only to her but to Teal and yourself. My son passed away on May 13th 2017. No father should go through this. He had a returning brain tumour after 5 years. It was a 9 month plus journey through his deterioration. I saw him take his last breath and his heart stopped. I still can hardly believe he is gone. I will never be the same again. It's early days. I have a lot to process.

I lost someone I love recently and it is really a challenging process but probably one of the most rewarding processes in the end. I am not fully there yet, but I am happy to have been able to found some advice online what to do in the grieving process - like in this video! So Thank you Jolly! Hugs from Sweden!

    Watching this video after experiencing flashbacks to the last day with my dog before he became really ill and had to be put down. I was so triggered when walking along his favourite track today that I had to run back to my car the sadness overwhelmed me. I let myself cry and cry for two hours. I agree that void is a horrible feeling but it would be worse to stay stuck in that void. I’m glad you made this video and I encourage anyone reading this to let yourself feel the grief feelings. You free yourself from the grips of grief a little more each time

    I just lost my son, 39 years after losing my brother. In this interview, Teal is saying unless we move through our grief we will experience loss after loss. It happened to me after I found the gift of my brother's death and am working as a medium! I don't need to feel any more 'guilt' or 'responsibility' for my son's death! My son did not die because I took a hard line approach and didn't truly face my grief.

    My brother/best friend died 9 months ago 1/28/2022. I’m not back to work fully and my life seems on hold. I’ve been so alone in my grief and some days I’d rather be dead than feel this terrible pain. It’s so dark at times 😢 I feel so much pressure from society to hurry up and get over it. I feel like I’m being pushed or ignored.

      Three years my mum died and two years my murdered severely handicapped brother. Not back to work. Can’t exactly go around telling people my sister killed my brother by neglect and abuse with the help of my dad. DC labeled indeterminate police terrible. Been a horrible ride but finally starting to let go and live.
      For two years my daily goal was just to stay alive and do something that looked like living even if it was just going outside to get the mail.

    I lost my mother a year ago and still there's a lot of confusion. Happy this subject is touched, but could go way deeper into the subject, what teal says is go into the "dark emotion" but that's where she leaves it.
    Would love to hear a little more sensitive and indepth information, cause it isn't that easy as talked about.
    Grief and death is kind of a taboo also between me and my friends and a lot of people suffer silently and alone, which is so sad.
    Would be good for people to be informed about grief and losing a loved one, because everyone's going to go through it one day.
    Would be so helpful to come out of this and to get an insight for all of us about what grief really is and how to go with it.

      @patakanz 3 роки тому +2

      Teal talks about 'letting the train hit you' a lot when it comes to feelings. She explains it well in a lot of her videos. She means meditating on whatever feelings your body feels at the time, and observing them. We are well-versed in the art of bottling our feelings or covering them in layers of numbness, so this process doesn't come easily at first. But what she essentially means is facing those painful feelings and looking them in the eye, letting them move within us, and eventually integrate into our being, as opposed to us continually resisting them.

      @Mayana1987 3 роки тому +4

      You can use music that makes you feel sad/ angry, look at old photos that trigger emotion in you, move your body... Watch your breathing: where do you hold your breath and thus suppress the expression of emotion?
      Also: if you think you can't feel, feel this. Explore: how does not feeling feel? What is my numbness like? This can help you resolve numbness.
      You also might need people around to physically hold you. Gentle touch can dissolve walls.
      Hope this helps. Many blessings!

Into thousand 12 my brother with son killed. Then into thousand 13 my ex-husband died. Then into thousand 15, my cousin died and two months ago on the 27th, my grandfather died. I have also had several friends die stupid phone. I said I have had so many people die and it just keeps happening over and over. When my brother was shot and killed, everybody told me you can't be sad. He wouldn't want you to be sad. If you're sad, he can't rest in peace. Can I please get TEal's help?

    I think death is much easier to deal with then when a person leaves you by choice or you have to leave them. Because you know they’re on the planet and you have to think of them walking around and you don’t know what they’re doing. I think death is a lot cleaner and yet people get a lot more support around death than they do other kinds of losses of people. Let’s change that OK?!❤
