Gris Alves on Embracing Grief: A Journey Through Healing
“Grief is not a feeling, it's a capacity, it is not something that disables you. We are not on the receiving end of grief, we are in the practicing end of it”
Gris Alves invites listeners into an intimate conversation about grief in this episode of 'Tales of Recovery'. Far from being just a feeling, grief is a capacity, a practice that Gris navigates with raw honesty and openness. Drawing on the wisdom of Stephen Jenkins, she shares how she is living through her own grief, finding solace in yoga, drumming, music, and the occasional weeping in pajamas.
Gris's reflections are deeply personal, yet universally relatable, offering a comforting hand to anyone walking a similar path. She discusses the role of friendships and community support in her healing journey, emphasizing how these connections have made her a 'better griever'. The episode also touches on the intersection of religion and grief, with Gris reexamining her beliefs around death and mourning.
This heartfelt episode is a testament to the power of vulnerability and the importance of allowing oneself to feel deeply. It's a must-listen for anyone looking to understand grief as more than just sorrow, but as a profound part of the human experience.
