How Do You Help a Grieving Friend?
|
|
| This short animated video contains much wisdom about what not to say, what to say, and what to do when someone you know and care about is experiencing intense grief and loss. "The way to help someone feel better is to let them be in pain." Acknowledging their suffering and being with them in it, rather than trying to cheer them out of it, can make things better even when they cannot be made right. Listening helps. Being present helps. Being heard helps. |

Fumi Imamura’s Floral Works
” What interests me about the plant world is that plants have no cranial nerves and relate to the world as open internal organs. I came to know this as the idea of the anatomist Shigeo Miki. The novelist Kyusaku Yumeno said that ‘the brain is not a place to think’, while Shigeo Miki said that ‘the brain is merely a mirror reflecting the internal organs’. We tend to think that the brain is the essence of a person, but rather the brain is an accessory organ. A plant that lives only with its visceral organs is very simply connected to the world and does not question it. I sometimes think that this is a happiness that people have forgotten.” Artist Fumi Imamura shares more in this interview. { read more }
