Join George and Alice for an intimate and intellectual exploration of the phenomenon of grief. In this episode, discover why grieving is a true form of psychic "work," how our bodies experience the pain of a "broken heart" on a neurological level, and why the model of a "dance" between loss and restoration is so insightful.

From Freud to neuroscience, from the history of rituals to modern cultural references like the film Coco and the video game Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, this episode deconstructs myths to foster a deeper understanding. Learn the essential vocabulary to approach this sensitive topic in English, and leave with a more nuanced and compassionate perspective on this universal journey.
