Expected Loss: Coping with Anticipatory Grief

We don’t only experience grief after a loss—we often experience it before.

If someone we love is seriously ill, or if we’re concerned about upcoming hardships of any kind, we naturally begin to grieve right now. 

This process of anticipatory grief is normal, but it can also be confusing and painful. 

This compassionate webinar will help you understand and befriend your grief. You also discover effective ways to express your grief as you live your daily life.

Life is change, and change is hard. This webinar will help see you through.

When you attend this webinar, you will learn:

• What Anticipatory Grief Is

• What Causes Anticipatory Grief

• How Anticipatory Grief is Different from Regular Grief

• Why Grief and Mourning Are NOT The Same

• How to Actively, Authentically Mourn Grief Before Loss

• How to Care for, Love, and Mourn with Someone Who is Dying
