My Experience

Impressions of participating in Grief Recovery Workshop 53 years old, female, C.U. As I practiced the work one by one, I was able to remember the events that I had completely forgotten. It was three months that I had an experience that mysteriously revived various memories. It was great to realize how much pain due to loss I had. It also made me realize that what I thought was insignificant was the cause of various pains. Through some work, I was able to realize that the pain was gradually diminishing and then disappearing within me.

My Experience

Impressions of participating in Grief Recovery Workshop 49 years old, female, H.U. I did the Grief Recovery about the relationship with my divorced husband. At first, I didn't feel that it was a big loss, but when I made The Relationship Graph and remembered the memories with him again, I realized that the loss was more than I had expected. When I read The Grief Recovery Completion Letter, I was really surprised that I was overwhelmed with tears and emotions more than I had expected. When I said "goodbye" at the end of reading The Letter on the 8th workshop, I didn't really feel it, but I gradually understood the meaning of "goodbye". I think I was able to change my mind.

My Experience

Impressions of participating in Grief Recovery Workshop 47 years old, female, A.O. At first, I wasn't sure what to do, but as I chose a relationship and focused on that person, I could understand both the other person and myself well. I chose a relationship with a still-living mother who has affected me as the closest person. The work of writing out the events with my mother, sorting them into three categories, writing letters, etc., and the work of actually talking about it aloud are completely different in emotions. I got a lot of emotions when I spoke out. There was an instruction to keep it as it is even if it gets bogged down when talking, but that was difficult. I was talking while trying to express my sadness without stopping. As I worked, I could feel not only my sadness but also my mother's sadness. I had enshrined my mother, but I could feel that she was also an ordinary person and had various emotions. By doing this recovery work, it seems that I will be able to treat my mother without expecting too much. I want to do this Grief Recovery work about the second person in the form of continuing education. At the first one I was working on it without knowing it well, and I haven't organized it well yet, so I thought that if I did about two people, I would be able to do other people by myself. Until now, I have been thinking it's correct to pretend that I don't care a lot and to pass on my emotions. We read the commitments every time. And I think that is effective because unfamiliar behaviors can be fixed by reading them repeatedly.

My Experience

Impressions of participating in Grief Recovery Workshop 40 years old, female, T.I.. I did Grief Recovery about former boyfriend whom I broke up. At first I couldn’t imagine that I apologize him but while writing Recovery Components, strangely, I felt like doing so. Doing Grief Recovery made me feel lighter. As I worked on the Grief Recovery, I was feeling more comfortable and I’d like to clean up my house thoroughly.

My Experience

Impressions of participating in Grief Recovery Workshop 57 years old, female, W.A. In this Grief Recovery workshop, I worked on the loss of the relationship with my uncle. I felt difficult for converting the grief into Recovery Components, especially distinguishing between the three Components. I realized that if I do Grief Recovery correctly, I will get the maximum effect. I realized that by doing Grief Recovery, I can break away from the past drama and I can be free. Thank you so much for leading until late every time. I can't give advice to partners who don't understand correctly, so what should I do?
