The Model of Heart-Centered Grief

June 8, 2015 by Mandy Bird

The Model of Heart-Centered Grief

Are you ready to be EMPOWERED in your grief and start living again?

Does this sound familiar?

  • You feel stuck in the process of your grief – you feel isolated, depressed, and in a black hole.
  • You know deep inside that what has happened was not in vain – you want to find the meaning in the loss.
  • You know you want your life to be different… but you just aren’t sure what to do next.

We have good news! You are in the right place.

The Model of Heart-Centered Grief, co-created by Mandy Bird and Chris Saade, will provide you with 7 steps to empower your journey of grief and hope. Mandy and Chris will guide you through each step with compassion, expertise and caring understanding.

The Model of Heart-Centered Grief is:

  • A step-by-step journey that will teach you how to let grief inspire your spirit
  • Your guide to finding the special gifts of your grief… and these gifts are how you will make a difference in the world
  • A process that will move you forward in life with hope and greater meaning
  • Uniquely designed as a series of personal coaching sessions
  • Designed for any form of loss – the death of a loved one, the loss of a significant relationship, a job loss or life transition

What are the 7 Steps?

  1. Affirm Your Grief: This step teaches you about the importance of honoring and affirming the sacred nature of your grief.
  2. Open Your Heart: When your heart has been broken, it may seem like you will never be able to love others or the world again. This step speaks about letting grief open your heart and how by doing this, healing can begin.
  3. Initiation: This step shows you how grief is a most important experience of sacred initiation. It initiates you into your calling, your purpose in life.
  4. Paradox: The saying “there are two sides to every coin” is a good example of paradox. This step teaches you that life’s journey is constituted of both grief and joy, that grief as well as joy are noble and necessary to expand our heart. We can learn to experience both aspects of our emotions fully and with time do so simultaneously, thus experiencing the full paradox of life.
  5. Spiritual Fortitude: With respect for all religions and philosophical beliefs, this step speaks about letting your “heart spirituality” be the sturdy and supportive container of your grief.
  6. Service: Within grief and loss there are gifts that can lead you to find your unique way of serving peace and justice in the world and making a difference. This step encourages you to look for those gifts and then take action in the world.
  7. Celebration of Life: It is so important to celebrate your WHOLE life – both the grief and the joy. This step is about honoring and celebrating the depth of your grief journey.

Transformation is possible. Now is the time to become EMPOWERED like never before! And you won’t be alone… Mandy and Chris will be with you every step of the way. They understand what you are going through, because they have been there, too.

INDIVIDUAL AND RELATIONSHIP COUNSELING

June 7, 2015 by Mandy Bird

My approach to counseling is very individualistic. It’s based upon where you are on your journey and what your needs are. People enter counseling for a variety of reasons and life events. My approach with each client varies by what you bring into our session.

My Philosophy

You are the expert on you.

Part of my role is to guide and be a sounding board, or to mirror what is happening internally for you. My job is to support you while you come to fully know yourself and learn the patterns that have taught you toxic messages. It’s also my goal to help you find your authenticity in order to become a fuller, authentic, real and genuine you.

I use a variety of techniques, skills and interventions to help you achieve your goals. Sometimes, my role is to assist you in sorting through great confusion or grief to identify those goals, and then help you craft a plan to put them into practice… all the while, teaching you practical tools to do so.
