How do you grieve a hurricane or natural disaster?

Is grief good?

Should you cry in front of your kids?

Check out this interview on the Mother Tree network podcast hosted by Aminata Desert Rose Plant Walker Fire Woman aka Dr. Amanda Kemp.

Josea warns listeners about the Hidden Dangers of Unprocessed Grief and how it can harm families and cause war and genocide.

Grief can feel like a hurricane; be sure to get support from a community or a therapist.

Grief expert Josea Crossley tells us healthy grief is all about letting energy move!

You can move energy by dancing, laughing, yoga, and crying.

The key is to feel a little at a time, as you go AND to join safe and consensual spaces with others who can hold you while you grieve.

Emoting all over the place can harm others (such as children).

Find out what to do with Big Feelings!

Unexpressed grief is dangerous!

It can destroy families and undermine your dreams.

The energy it takes to suppress grief, is energy that you don’t have to give to your children or grow your business.

It can show up as resentment, unworthiness, or feeling scattered.
