When someone dies in a family, the family never remains the same – the family structure is thrown off balance. Grieving family members find it hard and, sometimes, incapable of behaving in the ways they used to.
Family members will not only have to cope with the grief associated with the loss, they must also deal with the fact that a vital piece of the family structure has been removed.
In the majority of cases, different family members will respond differently to the same death.
Because each family member is going through their own unique individual emotional experience, it is usually difficult in such times to figure out how to connect with one another and how to support one another.
When a family member displays a sudden change in emotions, and just gets angry, anxious, and numb or depressed, our immediate reaction might be wishing they would snap out of it.
In a perfect world, people would have patience and understanding for one another but we don’t seem to be living in case perfect world, so is easier said than done.
In this conference, we shall explore:
1. How grief can impact the entire family unity
2. How the unique nature of grief can impact the relationship and communication between family members
3. How grief can alter an individual’s personality and negatively affect their ability to cope with similarities and differences.
4. How to relate and communicate with a grieving family in a way that is supportive and comforting.
If you would like to gain a deeper understanding of the uniqueness of grief, it’s impact on the family, and also acquire the right tools to support family members or other families going through grief then this conference is for you.
