Dealing with the loss of a pet is tough...
Mom talked to grief expert Marybeth Haines on our PAWSitive Radio Show.
Marybeth Haines empowers people to make
choices that promote action, personal growth and healing.
As a grief consultant and educator,
Marybeth’s specialized focus is providing support in pet bereavement. She holds
the strong belief that pets can teach people many things about life and so can
the grief associated with their death. The pain of such a loss can be
debilitating for many people. However, people can recover and Marybeth’s
passion is helping them move beyond loss. Her work focuses on practical and
supportive strategies for coping during this difficult time.
She wrote a book!
She talks about the 7 Effective Tools for healing through the loss of a pet:
- Recognition
-
Permission
-
Learning
-
Personal Empowerment
-
Receiving Guidance
-
Taking Action
-
Gifts of Many
You can listen to her and mom talking here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/teamtoby/2014/09/10/the-power-of-pets-and-dealing-with-loss-at-work-and-at-home
Her fave quote is “Pets come into our
lives to bring us many gifts. It is when we open our eyes fully, that we can
then truly see the magic that each gift brings."
