Grief and the Body

Maeve Sutton

Grief moves through muscle and bone as much as through the heart, leaving people exhausted, forgetful, and unsure why their body feels so heavy. This is a gentle guide to caring for yourself while mourning: why sleep and appetite falter, how to eat and rest when nothing sounds appealing, gentle movement that helps without demanding energy you do not have, and honest guidance on when physical symptoms need outside care. Steady, kind, and grounded in the reality of loss.
