Suzanne Rizk on the challenges of her mother’s death during Covid

In this profoundly moving episode, Suzanne opens up about all the challenges that surrounded her mother’s death during Covid-19. Covid was an incredibly difficult time for all of us but the greatest challenge had to be the heightened complexity of a Covid death. Many of you will resonate with Suzanne’s moving story and the psychological difficulties the Covid restrictions imposed on all of us.In this episode, we discuss: The heightened complexity of a Covid death and the mental toll caused by the restrictions.How we grieve for the future as well as the past.When anger contaminates all your feelings, you should turn to a 4 step tool to help you release it.Why it’s never too late to have rituals when someone has died - nor is it ever too late to mourn.Grief is held in the body and often feels like fear. While we internally acknowledge that we are mortal, we never acknowledge that we will all be bereaved at some point in our lives.Support links: Cruse Bereavement Support: https://www.cruse.org.uk/Grief Works App: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/grief-works-self-care-love/id1558867513Grief Works Book: https://juliasamuel.co.uk/books/grief-worksFind Julia: Website: https://juliasamuel.co.uk/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliasamuelmbe/Produced by Georgie RutherfordEdited by Nick Kingswell Hosted on Acast.
