Podcasts about anxiety the missing stage

Grief is a complex journey, and often, one crucial stage is overlooked: anxiety. On this episode of Raising Joy, Dr. Pyrc and Wini interview Claire Bidwell Smith, author of "Anxiety:The Missing Stage of Grief," about this often-unspoken aspect of loss.   Claire shares her personal journey with grief and how it inspired her insightful book. They discuss why anxiety is frequently missed in the grieving process, how it can manifest in various ways, and the impact of societal pressures to "move on."   Claire also offers practical strategies for managing grief-related anxiety and shares the most important lessons she's learned about grief. Join us for a powerful and illuminating conversation about navigating loss and finding healing.  Remember to connect with Raising Joy on Instagram @raisingjoypodcast and TikTok @Raising.joy to see video content from episodes.    

This episode was originally released on August 18th, 2018. The Sugars have been thinking about what it means to say goodbye and let go. In this first episode of our two-part series on moving on, the Sugars and Claire Bidwell Smith answer two letters from people struggling to move past their grief after the death of their loved ones. The first letter comes from a woman who recently discovered that her best childhood friend died by suicide. In the wake of the news, she spent hours pouring over letters from her friend, and realized that there were signs of trouble early in life. Now she's haunted by the fact that she failed to intervene years ago. “I keep ruminating on how Alejandra might have killed herself and where she was when she did it,” she writes. “I feel so much guilt from my complacency.” A second letter writer, who calls herself “Wracked by Guilt,” feels similarly about the death of her mother. “How do I get over the sickening feeling that I played a role in my mom's death?” she asks. “How is it possible for me to stop trying to place blame and simply accept the situation?” Claire Bidwell Smith is a licensed therapist specializing in grief, and the author of several books, including “The Rules of Inheritance.” She writes and speaks about grief regularly, and offers online grief support in addition to her private practice. Her new book, “Anxiety: The Missing Stage of Grief,” will be released on Sept. 25th.

Grief, in its myriad of forms, touches us all at some point in our lives. And when it comes, it can often bring along an uninvited guest: anxiety. In this Language of Love Conversation, I talk with author and grief therapist Claire Bidwell Smith. When Claire was in her early twenties, she lost her parents, which deeply impacted her life. After her she began having panic attacks, Claire decided to learn more about grief-related anxiety. In fact, we now know that the kind of anxiety experienced with grief is a very unique sort.    In this conversation, Claire and I unpack:  Grief-related anxiety, its unique manifestations, and how it differs from typical anxiety  The different ways different cultures create space for grief  Why it is important to allow oneself to fully experience and release emotions in the grieving process The transformative nature of grief and the ways it can impact on every aspect of a person's being Different kinds of losses and their ability to change us and lead to a pared-down version of ourselves The importance of being present for someone in their pain without needing to have all the right words or solutions How to maintain a strong connection to loved ones who have passed away and find ways to honor their memory If you or someone you love is going through grief right now, or you've been there before, you're going to find this conversation really eye-opening. So, let's dive in! Remember to check out Claire Bidwell Smith's website to learn more about her work, especially her online support group retreats and podcast.

The one and only, Barri Leiner Grant is here. Barri is the Chief Grief Officer and a Certified Grief Coach with The Memory Circle, a space and place to be with your grief. When Barri's own beautiful mother died in 1993, there were no resources available to help her family through the pain. Nobody said grief or grieving. She knew motherless daughters deserved better. So, she created and opened a door where there wasn't one before and eventually started the memory circle.  Barri said “I want grief to be normalized. It needs a better place to live in modern day society. Let's work on becoming more grief literate in our daily lives.” In this episode, we chat about her mother's final days in a beach chair eating plums, writing to the dead, how to reframe big milestones in our lives, and menopause.

IS YOUR ANXIETY REALLY GRIEF? with CLAIRE BIDWELL SMITH     “Grief and joy often walk hand in hand.” – Dr. Amy Robbins       Episode Summary:   We have all experienced loss. Therefore, we have all experienced grief, in one form or another.   In this episode, we talk with renowned grief expert Claire Bidwell Smith, a therapist and the author of three critically acclaimed books, already published in 19 countries:   The Rules of Inheritance After This: When Life is Over Where Do We Go? Anxiety: The Missing Stage of Grief   Claire strives to provide support for all kinds of people experiencing all kinds of grief.  Claire offers online programs for grief in addition to working with people one-on-one.   The Rules of Inheritance is currently optioned for television rights. In addition to having given dozens of talks on grief, Claire has written for The New York Times, Scientific American, The Washington Post, Goop, The Huffington Post, Salon.com, Slate, Chicago Public Radio, The Guardian, Psychology Today, Yoga Journal, and BlackBook Magazine.   Her insights have been featured on MSNBC, Good Day LA, Today.com, The Atlantic, the Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, NPR, Forbes, Conde Nast Traveler, the San Francisco Chronicle, the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Oprah Magazine, Self Magazine, Shape Magazine, and dozens of radio shows and podcasts.   People want to hear from Claire!   We grieve throughout our lifetimes, not for a person we have lost. Listen in to understand how grief impacts us all, and how unprocessed grief can actually show up as anxiety.       Topics We Discuss: [4:00]  Claire's experiences with the very early loss of both of her parents, and a series of secret conversations with a close college friend as she approached death. Asking herself, “What is the meaning of all this?” Seeing mediums, priests and rabbis, shamans, doing past life regressions, exploring alternative therapies…   [10:00] Grief in the context of the two COVID years.  How we grieve more than just the death of a loved one. COVID brought so much change. Grief is about loss, but loss is always about change. Since the COVID years brought about an unprecedented amount of change, we are all grieving.   [12:40]  The interconnection of anxiety and grief. Claire found anxiety as a missing element of the grief conversation. Unprocessed grief can manifest as anxiety.   [20:44] What people can expect as they move through grief. Sadness, fear, anger, overwhelm, guilt, regret, betrayal. We grieve in whatever way we live, and our grief will be different depending on the nature of the loss.  Processing grief: sitting with grief, opening up to the feelings that arise, retraining your brain, being in the present moment.   [27:33]  What sort of counselor to look for to process anxiety and grief.   [29:10] Claire's upcoming grief and loss course for mental health professionals: coaches, therapists, teachers, counselors, nurses, doctors.   [34:18] After years of research, what Claire believes happens when we die.   [36:08] Claire answers Amy's speed round questions:   Spirituality means… What is something most people don't know about you? What are you looking forward to right now? What is one thing you are deeply grateful for? What book is on your nightstand? What is your favorite spiritual or healing practice? What is the most transformative experience of your life?       FOLLOW CLAIRE BIDWELL SMITH   Find Claire's books wherever books are sold.

She has written for The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and a variety of other publications.  She received her Master’s Degree in clinical psychology from Antioch University, and has recently transitioned her therapeutic practice to the East Coast of the United States while working with clients around the globe. Our discussion with Claire focused on how a crisis is unique in its ability to generate grief, as well as anger and pain and anxiety. We talk about common problems that surface from not being able to grieve during the crisis in the same ways we would have traditionally. Claire shares some tips on how to manage grief during the pandemic and, interestingly, her list begins with “cut down on your screen time.” In our grooving session, Kurt and Tim discuss anticipatory grief and how difficult this experience is with no reasonable end date.  We hope you enjoy our conversation with Claire as much as we did.  © 2020 Behavioral Grooves   Links Connect with Kurt and Tim:  Kurt Nelson, PhD: @WhatMotivates  e-mail: kurt@lanterngroup.com  Tim Houlihan: @THoulihan  e-mail: tim@behavioralchemy.com  Lantern Group: http://lanterngroup.com/ BehaviorAlchemy: https://www.behavioralchemy.com/ Behavioral Grooves: https://behavioralgrooves.com/ Weekly Grooves: https://weeklygrooves.podbean.com/ Common Biases & Heuristics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XHpBr0VFcaT8wIUpr-9zMIb79dFMgOVFRxIZRybiftI/edit# Patreon Site for Behavioral Grooves: https://www.patreon.com/behavioralgrooves   General Coronavirus Info:  Daily Newsletter Summarizing data from Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security: http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/newsroom/newsletters/e-newsletter-sign-up.html CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Great videos on the science behind this by Dr. Peter Attia – this is the first in a series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNVhLyAlfA4 What is herd immunity?: https://www.technologyreview.com/s/615375/what-is-herd-immunity-and-can-it-stop-the-coronavirus/ A list curated by Liam.Delaney@UCD.ie  https://docs.google.com/document/d/11GLhX7hLf64Bxkdpv5hvYHqOjS1imlcMQFjJBJ-9oUM/edit   Coronavirus & Behavioral Science:  Selected Links: The Behavioral Sice of Coronavirus: https://behavioralscientist.org/selected-links-the-behavioral-science-of-the-coronavirus-covid-19/ Why no one is reading your coronavirus email: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/13/opinions/coronavirus-emails-effective-messaging-rogers/index.html Handwashing can stop a virus, so why don’t we do it?: https://behavioralscientist.org/handwashing-can-stop-a-virus-so-why-dont-we-do-it-coronavirus-covid-19/ The behavioral science of handwashing: https://think.ing.com/articles/the-behavioural-science-of-hand-washing/  Ideas 42: The Behavioral Side of COVID-19 here: https://ideas42.org/covid19/  Greater Good: https://twitter.com/GreaterGoodSC   How We Can Cope During This Crisis:  Tip Sheet from HUMU: https://humu.com/remote-nudges/ Resources for learning at home: https://fordhaminstitute.org/national/commentary/resources-learning-home-during-covid-19-school-closures?utm_source=join1440&utm_medium=email&utm_placement=etcetera   General Behavioral Science Links:  Common Biases and Heuristics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XHpBr0VFcaT8wIUpr-9zMIb79dFMgOVFRxIZRybiftI/edit# Jonathan Haidt – 5 Moral Foundations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_foundations_theory Annie Duke’s “How To Decide”: https://www.amazon.com/How-Decide-Simple-Making-Choices/dp/0593084608 “16 Ways To Promote Hand Washing With Behavioral Science” article by Aline Holzwarth: https://www.forbes.com/sites/alineholzwarth/2020/03/25/handwashing-with-behavioral-science/#261b4b9f768d Aline Holzwarth’s Playlist on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0H5fsQRrqslGdBhhx8d4Aw?si=0jra0rU1Qu2vQNtqjbRvZA Deontological and Consequential Moralities: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/ethics-deontological/#DeoTheKan Difference between descriptive and injunctive norms: https://psychology.stackexchange.com/questions/6193/whats-the-difference-between-injunctive-norms-and-descriptive-norms Emotion Research from FinalMile: http://finalmile.in/research/ Pandemic Playbook from FinalMile: https://www.playbookforpandemic.com/ Irrational Labs Bootcamp: https://irrationallabs.com/learn/ Claire Bidwell Smith “Anxiety: The Missing Stage of Grief”: https://clairebidwellsmith.com/

Months into California’s Shelter In Place orders, it is clear that the pandemic is taking a toll on the mental health of so many of us. Many are dealing with the loss of a job and with it their income and sense of purpose. Others are working from home, with the added strain and impossible balancing act of caring for children or loved ones. Both are recipes for depression, anger and anxiety, with the potential for stress to boil over and manifest itself into abuse and violence in the home. Today, District Attorney Nancy O’Malley is in conversation with Author and Grief Therapist Claire Bidwell Smith. Her new book, Anxiety: The Missing Stage of Grief is particularly poignant during this era of the pandemic.

ENCORE EPISODE - originally published December 18, 2019 I had such a great discussion with Claire Bidwell Smith for this episode.

Some topics Claire and I discuss include: How she started having anxiety and panic attacks around the time her mom died, and no one connected it to her grief; What anxiety is, and what are some symptoms; Why it's important to work through your grief in order to tackle your anxiety; If you're stifling your grief, it's likely to manifest in anxiety; Grief-related anxiety can be present right away or many years out from loss; Kids who lost a parent often have fear of additional loss; How guilt and regret contribute to anxiety after loss, and ways to process these feelings; Sometimes people hold onto the guilt as a way of holding onto the person; Finding other ways to hold onto the person's memory so you can let go of the guilt; Why writing is an important tool for processing grief, and tips for doing this; and Why telling our story of loss is important. I hope you enjoy my discussion with Claire Bidwell Smith.
