Opening to Grief: Finding Your Way from Loss to Peace with Claire B. Willis

Aired Thursday, May 6, 2021 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST

Over the past year, the pandemic has robbed every single one of us of something… If not a loved one or our livelihood it’s our familiar daily routine, our freedom of movement, or our way of working, playing, communicating, connecting, and moving through the world. Many are feeling a mix of emotions – anxiety, despair, sadness, and anger. While we might not recognize all of these feelings as grief, we are grieving. This is how human beings respond to loss. And our losses are far from over.

According to this week’s guest, grieving is one of the most difficult experiences we will ever face. Grief’s terrain is unspeakably painful. There are no easy answers and there’s no one way to grieve. Your grief is yours alone. But the good news is, whatever you are grieving, you will find your way…

CLAIRE B. WILLIS is a clinical social worker who has worked in the fields of oncology and bereavement for more than 20 years. A cofounder of the Boston non-profit Facing Cancer Together, she has led bereavement, end-of-life, support, and therapeutic writing groups, and has co-taught spiritual resources for healing the mind, body, and soul at Andover Newton Theological School. The author of Lasting Words: A Guide to Finding Meaning Toward the Close of Life, & co-author of Opening to Grief: Finding Your Way from Loss to Peace with Marnie Crawford Samuelson, Claire Willis joins Sandie to share how we can navigate and embrace our emotions and experiences, however they arise, and follow our own path to healing.

Adolescence is a unique and formative time in life as well as a crucial period for developing and maintaining social and emotional habits important for mental well-being. The challenges of being a teenager and raising a teenager are well known. But thanks to Covid 19, those challenges have greatly escalated over the past year. With depression, anxiety, suicide, addictions, and other mental health issues rapidly escalating in children, it’s time to take a look at what we, as parents and caregivers, can do to support and guide our teens and tweens through this difficult time.

Lara Honos-Webb, PhD is a Practicing Clinical Psychologist licensed in California. A family therapist who works with teenagers, she is the author of several books on Attention Deficit Disorder, and is known for her distinctive reframing of mental illnesses that are commonly conceived as detrimental into gifts that offer exceptional strengths.

Dr. Honos-Webb joins Rebecca and Sandie this week to explain how the emerging knowledge of adolescent neural development and the tools shared in her new book, Six Super Skills for Executive Functioning, can help teens learn how to develop their self-confidence, regulate their emotions and mood, improve their focus, enhance their motivation, and bring them the hope, optimism, and skills that lead to immediate relief and improvement, as well as lasting growth to serve a lifetime.

Sister Jenna – America Meditating

Aired Wednesday, May 5, 2021 at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST

This coming Sunday is Mother’s Day. For me, my brother and sister, and for countless others, it will be bittersweet, having lost our mothers in 2020 and 2021. It will also be a time to reflect on how our mothers shaped our lives, the lessons they taught us and the examples they set. There are also millions who are caring for elderly and infirmed mothers and fathers, returning the love they received as children. This year, an estimated 6.2 million Americans age 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s Dementia. The changes in their habits and communications can make celebrating Mother’s Day with them a great challenge to their children.

My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Spiritual Leader and renowned speaker Sister Jenna, credits her mother with Alzheimer’s to be her main spiritual influence and accepts her as who she is and respects all her differences and changes. The founder of Brahma Kumaris Meditation Museum I & II, Sister Jenna is a practitioner of Raja Yoga meditation. Sister Jenna is the recipient of numerous awards and proclamations including the President’s Lifetime National Community Service Award, Everyday Hero Award by the Foundation for Better Life, and the Friendship Archway Awards. Her syndicated radio show, America Meditating, is a conscious and humanitarian radio show that engages conversations that provide listeners with inspiring ways to master the challenges we encounter on the journey of life. Her websites are https://www.americameditating.org/ and https://www.meditationmuseum.org/ and she joins me this week to share her path.

Cuddle Up with the ‘Stuff You Wish You Didn’t Feel’

Air Date: Wednesday, 5 May 2021 at 5:00 PM ET/2:00 PM PT

This week’s topic is, Cuddle Up with the ‘Stuff You Wish You Didn’t Feel’

Jealousy, resentment, contempt, disapproval … what in the heck do we do with all these undesirable feelings and thoughts when we’re trying to be a warmhearted and open person?

When we shy away from the traits and qualities that seem unloving or in some way unacceptable or selfish, it’s the same as telling ourselves, “We’re not lovable”.

Most of us know that if we are to truly embrace what it means to ‘be human’ then we must celebrate the WHOLE of who we are – loving the Self is at the hub of loving ALL of the diverse slices of life.

Beyond that, when we can’t BE with these unwanted parts of the Self, we’re limiting access to our natural born talents, our unique expression in the world and ultimately, our sense of peace and personal fulfillment.

This week we’re going to blow this idea of unbearable inner feelings and experiences wide open by pinpointing how they came to be placed on the ‘blacklist’ of the Self to begin with. Sam will help you peel the layers back, one by one, in the hopes that you’ll uncover a previously unseen connection with one of these insufferable aspects of the Self.

This is a sweet opportunity to take a closer look at your how you learn to value YOU and stop depriving yourself of the abundance that can come from empowering more of these unwelcome feelings.

It’ll be a thought-provoking, inspiring hour for sure. And Sam invites you to CALL IN and CHAT LIVE and share your thoughts on the ‘STUFF you WISH you DIDN’T FEEL’, to further the conversation.

Go to samparrotto.com to submit your questions for this week’s conversation.

You won’t want to miss being an ‘ON AIR’ participant of Expedition Self. Sam will provide real insight, understanding and offer an opportunity to connect a new way of thinking to YOUR way of thinking.

Each week Sam discusses a different and highly accessible slice of building a stronger, deeper relationship with the inner Self so that YOU have the tools to become more and more whole.

Lower Ego Flexibility and Difficulty Coping with Stressors and Stress

Aired Wednesday, May 5, 2021 at 8:00 AM PST / 11:00 AM EST

This week on It’s Your Ego—Stupid!, Dr. Nick will be looking intensely into the mirror of our ability to cope with stressors and stress, that are a part of each of our lives. These include the work, health, financial, marital, and familial stressors that contribute to the build-up of stress in us over time, and which we are called upon to manage so that they don’t get the better of us. Stressors that can manage us rather than our managing them when we are failing to manage them. Leading to chronic stress that can precipitate major health problems, including heart disease and cancer, the top two causes of premature death. During the show I’ll be looking at symptoms, reflections of ego stupidity, and the impact on spiritual wellness which occurs when a person is being affected by lower ego flexibility energy in their encounters with stressors and stress. I’ll also be looking at specific ego insights needed to transform lower ego flexibility into a healthier and more balanced place.

Unfortunately, for those with lower ego flexibility they often cope with stressors and stress by approaching them with rigid and narrow thinking. This leads to their being stubborn and “pig-headed” in working with stressors and stress by thinking about them only in ways they want to think about them, rather than more openly and flexibly—ways they need to think about them. Consequently, they can often get caught up in using old, outdated, or failed strategies in dealing with health, financial, and familial stressors, rather than moving on to newer, better, and different approaches that are more effective. For them, doing that is an admission to their having been wrong. Which is something they can only do as a last resort, if at all. Roles they may find their way into living, until they awaken to their ego energy, include the Authoritarian, the Ethnocentrist, and the Paranoid Person.

Please join me Wednesdays at 11:00 am (ET) when I will be sharing what you’ve taught me about what ego’s doing within your life, humanly and spiritually.
