Grief groups led by Darlene Larson get to the heart of the pain and offer purpose in time!
Here are attendee’s comments:
It was good being in a group with others that are going through some type of grief. Thanks for all your teaching and sharing with us. Love you.
Please help others learn that “should” is shaming word. Do not tell others they should do something. Do not use should, it serves no purpose, absolutely no purpose.
Give ourselves grace.
Move forward at your own speed with God as your guide.
I need to be more honest about my feelings with my adult children about my grief.
I need to remember to pray.
You have helped me learn how to allow people to open up and share their grief and pain.
It’s okay to show your feelings to talk about your loved one.
How to be at peace with oneself.
It is okay to wish you had done some things differently.
Don’t be so hard on yourself.
I am not too old to go forward in life.
Fear versus love, I never knew there was a difference.
Every day I say three things I am thankful about with this loss. I have enjoyed our time.
I learned it was normal to be mad or to dislike God for taking him away from us. God understands my loss. (Just do not stay mad at GOD.)
Thank you, Darlene. To get rid of the, what ifs to handle grief.
I leaned to discover who I am and why I do what I do. And with the fear of failure. Procrastination needs to go out the door. Beautiful China dishes will be finished, among many other things.
How to rediscover myself and what needs to be a priority in my family.
Thank you, Darlene. I feel better to know how to help others and also be aware of procrastination. You are a great encourager. You are from a great family.
Every worksheet was helpful (in its own way).
Your inspirational stories and scriptures.
My grief is not as heavy as it was and I found ways to make purpose of my life.
These have been the best sessions I have attended with much helpfulness.
Darlene, you are always so open about the trials and triumphs you have had and how God has brought you through to help other ladies know, that will HE bring them through too. Love to you!
It helps to hear of others and hear how they feel and that I too feel that way.
Get people to share some of their pain as that really helps. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have really enjoyed our time together.
What do I do?
I offer support one on one with woman and men in grief, but I also work alongside churches to offer grief support groups. These comments above came from support groups.
Many in the group were dealing with:
- Losing a spouse.
- Burying an adult child.
- Facing cancer
- Learning to live with broken relationships with adult children
- And loss of siblings and neighbors and lots of pain.
During my last, Hope for the Hurting sessions, we met six times, two hours each, and I taught and coached with over ten life changing coaching worksheets over time. That allowed men and women time to work through and process their pain and grief.
