OPEN HEARTS GRIEF AND LOSS HEALING
A loss of any kind can be devastating, whether it be the death of a loved one, a job, a relationship, a home or any type of separation. We realize that everyone has their own way of dealing with grief and loss situations and that is why we offer a variety of support and healing modalities:
Grief Recovery
This is the program developed by the Grief Recovery Institute in Sherman Oaks, California. The program is suitable and appropriate for all belief systems. At Peaceful Choices we offer it to those whose hearts are hurting, whether you believe that this life is all there is or whether you wish to heal your grief while upholding your belief in the continuation of consciousness after physical death and communications between the physical and non-physical dimensions. Even people who have this belief - including mediums and psychics - go through the grieving process. No human escapes it. Basically, the Grief Recovery program is a great place to start your healing no matter what you believe.
It differs from grief counseling or therapy in that it is educational rather than clinical. The group programs are not "support" groups, nor are they "self-help" groups. They are facilitated groups which use The Grief Recovery Handbook as the basic text, along with a format written by the founders of the Grief Recovery Institute. Individual sessions follow a similar format. The children's program also includes material from the book When Children Grieve. The programs are designed specifically to assist all who wish to help those with broken hearts retake a productive place in the mainstream of their lives.
The uniqueness of the program lies in the essential idea that grief is the normal and natural emotional reaction to loss. Even though that is an accurate statement, the majority of guidance for grieving people tends to move them toward their intellects to deal with their broken hearts. Thus the comment - "Grievers don't wind up at our door with broken heads, they all arrive with broken hearts."
While our ideas are neither new nor revolutionary, they are almost exclusively focused on helping people deal with what remains emotionally incomplete at the time of a death, a divorce, or other losses, or as reminders of a loss occur over time. We have known people to wait decades for "time to heal" them, their lives limited and restricted, only because no one has been able to help them with recovery actions. It is our job to address the presenting issues of grief and recovery, not the intellectual ideas that distract them from the task at hand.
End Days and Bereavement Outreach
Using a variety of tools such as healing touch, music, guided meditation, aromatherapy, essences, gems and crystals and the Dreamwalker program, our mission is to help those in the process of crossing over, as well as their loved ones still on earth. Our focus is conscious transition and aspects of this experience such as understanding, preparing and integrating. We respond to the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs of our clients using a non-clinical, intuitive approach. Since each person's situation is unique and we design our programs thusly, we request that you contact us for a free initial consultation. The program consists of a series of sessions, approximately 1 hour each. We can suggest a minimum number of sessions following the initial consultation or the client is free to choose the amount he/she feels would be appropriate to his/her situation.
