Understanding Grief: Navigating Loss and Offering Support

I think just listening is the best way in the world to help someone else and also help them do self-care.
Grief is a universal experience, but how we handle it can be vastly different. In this episode of 'Understanding Behavioral Health: A Compassionate Guide', host Lindsay sits down with Nancy Durkin and Julie Minton from MENTOR South Bay to unpack the complexities of grief. They dive into what grief really is, how it manifests, and practical ways to manage it. Whether you're dealing with a personal loss or trying to support someone else, this episode offers valuable insights.
Nancy and Julie emphasize the importance of listening and self-care during these tough times. They share heartfelt advice on honoring loved ones and finding coping mechanisms that work for you. As Nancy puts it, 'Just listening can be the most powerful way to help someone and also encourage them to take care of themselves'. This episode is particularly poignant around the holidays, a time when grief can feel especially acute.
Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of their own grief reactions and actionable tips for supporting others. From practical self-care strategies to the emotional significance of listening, this conversation covers it all. If you've ever felt lost in your grief or unsure how to help a grieving friend, this episode is a must-listen.
