GriefWell — Living With Loss

The Problem

"Grief does not follow a timetable, and many people carry a loss for years without anywhere to put it. This course assumes nothing about your faith, your family or how long ago it happened, and takes no view on how you ought to be doing. It offers gentle structure and company for the road."

Who it's for

The right fit

Designed for For anyone carrying a loss, at any distance from it, whether six weeks in or six years in.

Grief tools in five short modules, for the things people need to do while grieving: understanding what grief is doing to you, getting it out of your head, carrying the person with you, living alongside the loss, and not doing it alone. The course will not speed grief up; what it offers is company and structure, and a clear account of when grief needs more than a course. Nineteen tools were written for this course, with four more drawn from the wider FlourishIQ library.

Common questions

FAQ

Is there a right time to start?

No. The course is equally usable by someone six weeks in and someone six years in, and there is no schedule to fall behind on.

Is this counselling?

No. It is education and self-help, not treatment. If your grief has stopped moving, if you cannot eat or sleep, or if you have thoughts of ending your life, please speak to a doctor, a therapist or a grief counsellor; the course lists South African helplines.

Does it assume a particular faith or kind of loss?

No. It assumes nothing about your faith, your family or how long ago it happened.
