I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
As to counselling, it depends on the individual. I didn't need anyone to tell me that I'd need grief counseling and decided myself the day after the funeral. But when I was offered one-on-one or group, I chose groups first (also at the suggestion of a physician relative who knew me best). That decision has to be up to you and your needs. I may still seek individual counselling but on a separate issue.
Regarding groups - I have found that you need to "shop around" - go to various ones until you find what "fits" or helps. Alot depends on the participants. Some are more philosophical - some will blatantly cry during a meeting. For me, that's where the emotions are real, shared, and we feel less alone or odd in our grief. But unless you're pleased with your first couple of encounters, don't settle.
God Bless and good luck.
You pay a donation to go. A few people have had dead relatives come through and say there is no way that the medium would know the things about the relative that they say. One medium even stood like my friends mum. I just wanted to know what peoples experiences or views where
for me, it is always difficult to go and be so completely vulnerable to a stranger.
my advice is to take your time in choosing your therapist and listen to your gut feeling on whether you feel this person can help you. just because they are professionals doesn't mean every one is right for you.
best wishes.
