Peace can be the smallest or the largest of things.
Living in peace is something many of us want more than anything in this world.
Finding peace can sometimes be difficult, especially when one is dealing with the loss of a spouse. The grief journey goes on and on and feels like it’s never going to stop!
Grief has a way of opening doors for denial, depression, stress & anger, often times leading right up to acceptance and even death.
There have case studies done where a spouse has passed away leaving their husband and/or wife to mourn and grieve their death.
Scientists have proven that intense grief weakens the body’s immune system leaving it more vulnerable to infections.
This is called “Broken Heart Syndrome.”
Broken heart syndrome is a temporary heart condition that’s often brought on by stressful situations, such as the death of a loved one.
