From Amyia- A Grief Recovery Organization

Grief is often only defined as a person's emotional response to a loved one's death. However, grief actually has a broader definition that impacts all areas of our lives. Grief, by definition is an emotional response to loss; any loss. When we can properly define the word, we can properly heal from its impact.

Here are 5 healthy ways to navigate through grief:
[ ] Give Yourself Permission to Grieve
[ ] Lean on Others for Help
[ ] Lean into Your Faith
[ ] Find a Good Counselor or Coach
[ ] Grieve to Grow

Wishing everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR! As we approach the new year let's look forward to new beginnings, a renewed hope for our future!

Happy Birthday Amyia! We love you. And, we miss you!

Stay Motivated!!

I love this message from the late Maya Angelou.

I don't know who this is for but start the forgiveness process now! The person who broke you is not coming back to fix you.

So, forgive without the apology!

Statistically, I probably shouldn't be standing here taking this awesome selfie. BUT GOD. Where I wanted to put a period, God put a common and wanted the story of my life to continue.

I am not only thankful for His trust in me but I thank Him for the supportive people He placed in my path. A tribe of people who helped me get to the other side.

Not only did I find hope on the other side I also found healing, transformation and love.

Grief is a response to a loss. It does not mean that if you have a response you lack faith.

Therefore,

You can be sad, and still have faith.

You can be angry and sin not, and still have faith.

You can be afraid, and still have faith.

Y'all I love, love, love! This shirt from 🤎🤎

Happy 4th of July!

2022 is 🏃🏾‍♀️💨 My prayer and hope for July is a continuance of healing. Great expectations for the future despite the challenges. Allowing the challenges to serve as a teacher to gain knowledge. And the courage to apply the knowledge and wisdom in order to grow!

Whether we realize this fact or not what we think about ourselves and what we say to ourselves matter.

Whatever those belief systems are we will create systems, habits and behaviors to prove them true. Therefore, if you believe you are unworthy and not valuable then YOU will act in ways that will sabotage your success. But, if you believe you are worthy, valuable, called for a greater purpose, then you will act in ways which will set you up for success.

We face so many challenges and obstacles daily, and with everything piling up on us, we may feel the urge to just give up! But you did not come this far just to give up!

Take a moment, to realize how far you've come, and build the resilence to keep moving forward.Whatever the challenge you're facing: You got this!

Grief is a normal and natural response to loss. It is not solely related to death and bereavement. Therfore, many people have and will experience grief throughout the course of their life.

life.

As I began to heal I didn't realize how much the traumatized little girl was speaking to me and directing my life. Certain behaviors and habits were created due to some unhealed places in my heart. As I began to heal the little girl transformation happened and the woman started to appear.
