Grief is a universal experience, but it’s one that often feels deeply isolating. It's more than just a feeling of sadness; it's a profound journey that touches every part of our lives. When we experience loss, whether it’s the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or a major life change, it can impact our emotional, professional, and even physical well-being.
This webinar is designed to help you understand and navigate the complexities of grief, offering practical strategies for coping and finding support within your EAP program.
Grief’s Impact Across Dimensions of Well-Being
Grief doesn't fit neatly into a box. The experience is holistic and interconnected, affecting various dimensions of our well-being:
- Emotional: Grief can manifest as sadness, anger, guilt, anxiety, or even numbness and depression. These intense emotions can feel overwhelming and unpredictable.
- Meaning & Purpose: A significant loss can challenge our core beliefs and spiritual foundations, leaving us questioning our place in the world.
- Financial & Legal: Grief can bring unforeseen strains, from a loss of income to complicated legal and guardianship concerns, adding stress to an already difficult time.
- Professional: It can be incredibly hard to stay focused at work. Grief can impact your concentration, decision-making, productivity, and motivation.
- Physical: The emotional toll of grief often translates into physical symptoms like sleep disruption, fatigue, loss of appetite, and a compromised immune system.
- Relational: Grief can lead you to withdraw from others, feel unsupported, or experience a significant shift in family dynamics.
