Grief and Energy Healing

It’s something most of us experience. Loss and the pain of grief. Grief doesn’t ever really go completely away but it is certainly important to heal your energy from the effects of grief. Often if needed.

Grief has a very thick, dense, dark energy. Not in the sense that it is “evil” but in the sense that you are far away from yourself and your source, God, the Divine. We feel that way when a beloved being passes because we forget in those moments where we came from and where we go when we transition. We forget who we really are – ETERNAL energy in a body.

Feeling Grief is Selfish Sometimes

Let me explain that. When a beloved being passes on, we miss them, in their human suit or fur or feather suit. But we also miss OURSELVES when they were here. We miss how our lives were when they were here. We think of how WE are affected by them not being here. We’re not thinking of how great it is that they have transitioned and, in a sense, went HOME. And that their mission here is over.

Going through the grief process is necessary to feel whole again. We must go directly into it and really experience it, selfish or not. Cry. Feel sad. Let it out. The key to getting through it is reaching for a NEUTRAL feeling. Not to go from grief, sadness, darkness, heaviness – to happy, happy, happy. It’s a gradual process. If you do not let yourself really FEEL the pain of loss and you don’t grieve, then there’s a chance you will build up energy in your body and aura that will get stuck and possibly make you sick or cause physical, mental or spiritual problems for you in the future. The energy of grief is very thick, as stated previously. And it must be watered down, broken up and RELEASED for your body and soul to be healthy.

I’ll Share A Bit…

In recent years I have lost my Dad, his Dad – my Grandpa (seven months apart), my three soulmate cats, two other beloved family cats (we are cat people ♥) and a precious chicken hen. That’s a lot of loss in a small amount of time. I’ve learned quite a bit. The two most important things I’ve learned are that (1) they are not really “gone.” They are simply out of their bodies. They are spirit-in-spirit now, not spirit-in-body anymore. Hence “transition.” And (2) that we must go through the grieving process to be healed.

I communicate with my Dad on a different level now than when he was in his body. I love my Dad very much and I do have days when I wish he was still here with us but I don’t miss him all the time. Most of the time I am aware that he’s around us and that he experiences through our eyes. I don’t MISS him because I FEEL him. I went directly through that grief. First it was raw shock, then overwhelm, then sadness, then more sadness. I cracked wide open. Then…one second at a time it felt lighter. Then back to sadness. Then even more light. It goes back and forth depending on triggers. That’s the process as I understand it.

Cry It Out

I cried a lot. I still cry. But I understand. I let myself cry when I need to. It clears my energy. (If you are not a crier, you can still FEEL and go through the process.)

Same with my cats. When my first one transitioned, I was distraught and very, very hurt. He was my sweet, talkative boy. I went to a very scared and paranoid place when I found out he was sick. All the months he was sick, I grieved his death before he even transitioned. He was weeks away from being 14 years old. I understand now that his sickness and death were preparation for me dealing with my Dad’s death and my other cats’ deaths. My last two cats passed four months apart. They were 18 an 19 years old. I cracked wide open again with their passing too. I am still in the grief-healing process with them. The last one to go was and is the most difficult for me. He is my familiar and a soul love of mine.

Death and Grieving are Completely Natural

We will never like the feeling of a beloved being transitioning. But we can choose to go through it knowing that there is a “light at the end of the tunnel.” Knowing that it’s a process from shock to grief to healing to LOVE. Knowing that LOVE is real. And that we are LOVE. Knowing that one day, we’ll feel a little better. And then we’ll feel a little better than that. And then we’ll be able to laugh again and go about life with new eyes. Essentially you are healing your energy by going through the grief process and then completely allowing yourself to let it all go.

There are healing crystals, essential oils, mantras, herbs, meditations, counseling, Reiki sessions and so many other healing modalities that can help with the grief process. But the main thing is to let yourself go though that process the way YOU need to go through it. Let it out. Let it go. Water down that thick energy. And then let yourself find that neutral zone so you can eventually let in peace and happiness. And then the new, light, clean, HEALED energy will follow.

Practical things to help with releasing and healing energy from the effects of grief:

• Crying
• Hugging
• Sleeping
• Watching funny videos, movies, TV shows
• Reading uplifting articles
• Writing your feelings
• Painting your feelings
• Crafting
• Yelling
• Walking and/or sitting in nature
• Talking to a beloved pet (they are good listeners)
• Praying/talking to the Divine

The above may lighten your energy and help towards healing and peace.

Much LOVE to anyone grieving. ♥
