Surviving Loss in Tragedies like the LA Wildfires
Presented by Dr. Ken Druck
Wednesday, February 5th - 7:00pm EST
There seems to be an increase in the frequency of our exposure to tragic events. Most recently, the wildfires in LA, and plane crashes in Washington, DC and Philadelphia highlight the loss, vulnerability and anxiety felt by so many. Whether you or someone you know has lost a loved one, been displaced or responded to a tragic event, these disasters underscore the importance of learning to cope with loss.
During this webinar presented by Dr. Ken Druck, participants will learn to give themselves the permission, support, compassionate self-care and patience necessary to process their losses, honor their loved ones, cultivate a resilient spirit, and summon the courage to go on living. We will discuss life losses where a loved one has died, and living losses where there have been heartbreaking, life-altering, traumatic losses of treasured homes, property, and memories.
Learning Objectives
Participants will learn the following:
- The differences between superficial, transient resilience/recovery and the kind of reconciliation/healing that is deep and lasting.
- The role that self-compassion, kindness, patience and self-care play in coming to terms with a significant loss.
- The differences between a living and life loss and in healing from one or the other.
- Concrete steps for summoning the strength, faith, courage, self-care/compassion and support to go on after a loss.
