“Emotions need motion” - Paul Denniston Grief is an emotion that many of us try to avoid. But what happens when we don't let it out? In this episode, we explore how hidden grief can get stuck in the body, causing tight shoulders, stomach pain, and nonstop anxiety. Paul Denniston, founder of Grief Yoga, joins Dr. Aimie to explain that grief doesn't simply disappear when ignored. Instead, it hides in our muscles and body, making them hurt or feel uncomfortable.This conversation sheds light on how movement and even laughter can let the feelings out of our bodies in a safe way. We'll talk more about: How grief physically manifests in the body Why movement is essential for trauma healing How to recognize if what you're feeling is grief (even if it looks like anxiety or anger) The power in creating dedicated time and space for grief expression Learning how to sit with grief safely so it doesn't feel too overwhelming How laughter can be used to access deeper grief How practitioners can hold space for others' grief without becoming overwhelmed themselves The physical and emotional benefits of moving grief through the body And more! Whether you're a practitioner working with grief, someone supporting a loved one through loss, or navigating your own healing journey, this episode shares insights into transforming pain through movement practices that incorporate breath, sound, and embodied awareness. Paul Denniston is the founder of Grief Yoga®, which uses yoga, movement, breath, and sound to release pain and suffering and connect to love. His intention with Grief Yoga is to combine many different forms of yoga in order to help heal grief.

Welcome to another enlightening episode of our podcast! Today, we're honored to introduce Tara Nash, a remarkable individual who has transformed her life journey from the fashion world in London to becoming a dedicated advocate for conscious grieving and spiritual healing. Tara's story is one of profound transformation and resilience. After years of running from her grief, she made a courageous decision to uproot her life and pursue a master's degree in Spiritual Psychology in Los Angeles. It was during this transformative period, thousands of miles away from her familiar surroundings, that Tara finally confronted the deep-seated pain of losing both her parents at a young age. Her father's sudden passing from a heart attack when she was just 9, followed by her mother's battle with breast cancer and subsequent passing when she was 21, left Tara navigating a journey of grief that went unrecognized by traditional therapy and coaching methods. Determined to uncover the truths and complexities of grief, Tara delved into a journey of self-discovery and healing. Today, Tara is on a mission to shed light on the often-misunderstood process of grief. Through her unique approach, which includes Grief Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, Breathwork, and the Conscious Grief Program, Tara helps individuals move through their grief with mindfulness and compassion. Join us as we delve into Tara's inspiring story and gain valuable insights into the transformative power of conscious grieving. Stay tuned for an insightful and empowering conversation!

Thinking back to the first hour after Andy died, I remember being in the emergency room and having such tremendous chest pain that I thought I must be having a heart attack. The ER staff actually put me through the CT scanner and obtained an EKG, but there was nothing physically wrong. Emotionally, however, everything was wrong. Andy was dead, and my whole world felt like it had been destroyed. All the turmoil in my mind manifested itself into physical pain. What might seem crazy to some people is in the days and weeks following Andy's death, I almost wanted to feel physical pain. For most of my life, I have suffered with having migraine headaches. I have tried many treatments over the years to help prevent them. After Andy died, however, I actually wanted to have a migraine. I wanted my physical pain to match my emotional pain. In today's episode with Gwen, we discuss how interconnected the body and mind can be. It is easy to fall into the trap that I was in and not want to take care of our physical bodies, but when we work on helping our physical bodies, our mental health often improves as well. I know that recently I have faced emotional struggles and going on a walk helps a lot more than curling up in bed. Erin (from Episode 134: Dakota's Mom) comes on today to talk about yoga and its impact on her healing. From Erin's website, yogawitherinb.com: ‘Yoga came into my life when I was so stressed out and carrying an injury and has aided in the transformation to the person I am now happy to be. I no longer just live in a black-and-white world. Colour has returned and I am able to live, love and celebrate.' I have personally done several yoga sessions with Erin and always find them healing. Now, Erin is putting together an amazing retreat that will take place in Mexico at the end of October. In the retreat, bereaved moms will be able to be together and work on things like yoga, breath work, and healthy eating as well as have time to connect and even have some fun. I'm sure it will be life-changing for all.

Quotes from this episode: "When we experience loss, we grieve." "All the things that we talk about in these programs can help for any type of grief because it's releasing the emotion from the body." "You can't fix something ... you want to just let that person know that you're there." "In general, I don't think any of us rest enough. In particular, if you're holding a lot of grief or stress, you're probably resting even less." "It is really important to let all of these emotions out and not hold anything in." "Everybody's grief is different. Their timeline is different."

Anxiety is a normal response to stress and can range from being helpful to debilitating. Make space for the mental stress to dissipate and follow the pathway to a more clear, more peaceful presence with renewed clarity and a calm and balanced nervous system. Yoga Nidra provides the tools for maintaining a sense of wellbeing and peacefulness, allowing the fluctuations of the mind to slow and return to a state of homeostasis allowing you to drift into a conscious, deep sleep state simply through the guidance through a systematic sequence of soothing and relaxing techniques that increase your awareness and deepens your relaxation.Throughout the practice, you're providing extra comfort and relaxation throughout the physical body allowing your brainwaves to regulate into a resting, calm, peaceful state that has been shown to help with insomnia, stress, grief, depression, anxiety, and symptoms from PTSD. Yoga Nidra allows you to tap into your very own awareness and experience and there is no wrong way to practice. No prior experience is necessary.It should be noted that some people can be distressed by meditation and mindfulness. Therefore, this might not be appropriate for everyone and is not a treatment for any disorder, and is not a substitute for professional care.

Grief yoga is a form of yoga but is also a little different. Grief yoga can help you lean into feelings that come along with events in your life that can feel painful and sad. It meets you where you're at to help you feel safe and secure, give you a sense of belonging, and help you learn to express your grief in a healthy way. Today's guest is Page Park. Her grief journey began with her divorce, followed by the death of both of her parents, and then the death of her brother, all within a relatively short time span. Understandably, she experienced a lot of grief, and had waves of emotions. During this time, she felt alone. She didn't resonate with support groups. But it was through yoga that she was able to integrate her grieving feelings into who she is, so that when feelings of grief would come, she knew what to do and how to be with them. If you have ever struggled with grief at any point in your life, this might be the thing the helps you move through it. Tune in to learn more!

Susan, your host, welcomes Page Park to today's episode. Page has her own grief story; she helps people navigate grief through yoga, meditation, breath, and connection within themselves. At Tulsi Rose Yoga, she creates a space where clients can get in touch with their inner voice and listen to their bodies to tune in to personal needs, and desires. Teaching for 24 years as a classroom teacher, Page explored ways to reach students and studied yoga completing her registered yoga teacher 500-hour program, 95-hour registered children's yoga teacher, and 100-hour yin training. In addition to teaching yoga and meditation, Page also writes poetry, about yoga, meditation, and how to connect with people. Key Takeaways: Page shares her grief story. Grief also includes a “business part” that can bring anger and sadness and even resentment and frustration for having to deal with so much. Practicing meditation is an incredible help, even one minute makes wonders. Find grief interrupters. Self-care is not being selfish. Susan shares her passion for yin yoga. Page talks about grief yoga and its special features. Yoga and self-care practices are so important when you are grieving because they have the power to take you out of your head and into your body. Where do you store your pain in your body? When you move your body, you are moving the flow of energy through it. Soaking sunshine can be a great help to boost your mood. Ask yourself: What is it that I need right now? Learn to listen to your body. If you keep searching for answers, they will come to you. You are not alone! There are people out there who will understand how you feel.

We all have to weather internal storms in life. This 35 minute Yoga Nidra meditation is for those dark times of deep sorrow and sadness. Yoga Nidra is backed by science as a way to become less emotionally reactive and to balance the nervous system. Yoga Nidra is not a yoga practice, it is translated to Yoga Sleep, and is usually done by lying down or finding rest in a comfortable and supported seated position. Prior experience is not necessary.It should be noted that some people can be distressed by meditation and mindfulness and therefore this might not be appropriate for everyone and is not a treatment for any disorder and is not a substitute for professional care.

On this episode of the Sacred Stream Radio Podcast, Laura Chandler talks with author, yoga instructor, and the creator of Grief Yoga, Paul Denniston. In his new book, Healing Through Yoga: Transform Loss into Empowerment, Paul teaches the groundbreaking process of Grief Yoga in an accessible way. In their talk, Paul explains the concepts behind Grief Yoga, a process that uses yoga, movement, breath, and sound to help people move through and release pain and reconnect to life and love. As serious as the subject of grief is, Paul's very presence demonstrates the joy that comes from the processes he teaches. He has trained thousands of therapists, counselors, and health care professionals in these unique methods. Genuine, sincere, and full of heart, it's easy to see how his work helps soften the edges of uncomfortable emotions to help people access their own deeper healing.

On this very special episode of “The Language of Love,” Dr. Laura Berman sits down with her friend and yoga expert, Paul Denniston. Author of the groundbreaking book “Healing through Yoga,” Denniston has personally helped Dr. Berman through the grief of her son's death and showed her ways that yoga can help us to channel, heal, and process our deepest wounds. Denniston is the founder of Grief Yoga and has built his practice around the five fundamental keys of healing: Awareness, Expression, Connection, Surrender, and Evolution. With each of these stages, yoga positions and meditations can help you to further your spiritual practice and unblock energy channels so that you can live your most fulfilling, love-filled existence. In this episode, Denniston and Dr. Berman also talk about how anger can actually be one of our greatest teachers, and how tapping into our anger in a healthy way can help to free us from unwanted experiences and negative thought patterns. While we often run away from anger or try to deny its existence, Denniston and Dr. Berman both share how the expression of anger can be revolutionary for both personal and collective healing. “We all need to share our stories. Being heard is one of the most fundamental needs of human beings,” says Dr. Berman. “And that includes anger. Grief can bring up so much anger, and I have times where I just need to beat a cushion with a bat, or scream into a pillow, and paint angrily until I can move that emotion through me. We need to honor our anger and give it freedom to move and be expressed.” In his book, Denniston shares over 75 meditations and yoga positions that can help even beginner yogis tap into the connection between the body and the spirit. With yoga, we can train our bodies to be more resilient, more present, and more able to withstand the ebbs and flows of life.

He teaches Grief Yoga to bereavement groups; cancer support centers; groups whose loved ones died by suicide; Alzheimer's groups; healing after a breakup, divorce, or betrayal; and addiction groups.
