Who knows what prompts a memory?\u00a0 Arm yourself.\u00a0 Know that these things are bound to happen. And if it is days, weeks, months or even years \u2013 take them as each wave comes. They do get less as time goes by.\u00a0 I am not sure what the letting go time is for anyone or anything in particular.\u00a0 We are all unique individuals.\u00a0 And so we were and are even when there are pets involved in our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping busy is another suggestion.\u00a0 And what do I mean by that?\u00a0 Simply breathing is one technique.\u00a0 I am a student of Tai Chi and breathing is a very important part of Tai Chi.\u00a0 If you want to restore your mind and body to a state of being calm quickly, then breathing deeply will soon help you to achieve your goal in a safe manner.\u00a0 Stress in one\u2019s life comes in all shapes and forms.\u00a0 Grief unfortunately is one of them.\u00a0 While our nervous systems are designed perfectly to look after us in a perfect way, our human emotions and reactions are something else to deal with entirely.\u00a0 Our need to relax is not always as easy as can be said \u2013 Getting through all the stages of what is the cause is definitely hard at times.<\/p>\n<p>There is the event to deal with and while that is happening we are running on adrenalin.<\/p>\n<p>Then there is the afterwards which is when our emotions and reactions take hold.<\/p>\n<p>Stress creeps in followed by intense exhaustion.<\/p>\n<p>Try to remember to take a couple of minutes during your day to breathe deeply; taking it in, holding it for say 10 seconds then letting it out through pursed lips. That oxygen is what you are lacking right now.\u00a0 We all breathe on automatic, but sometimes, just sometimes we need that little bit extra. Try it now and you will feel the benefits of it right away.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s face it, when we are not at our best, then everything around us collapses as well.\u00a0 I know that from personal experience.\u00a0 When I am not feeling well, that \u201ccan\u2019t be bothered\u201d attitude creeps up on me!<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading my blog.<br \/>\nPlease comment below and share my link.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Debbie Nicholson<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/howtodealwithgriefpt7.m4a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here for your Audio link to this blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=DG9G3A3M6HCPW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/images\/life-happens-volume-1-3d.png\" alt=\"Life Happens Volume 1\" width=\"165\" height=\"219\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Life Happens Volume 1 A Collection of Funny Emails and Facebook Messages Dating From The 1980s To 2012<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Favourite Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thewellgroomedpet.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cathy&#8217;s Well Groomed Site<br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/debbie-nicholson\/thefutureisscarypt8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Debbie&#8217;s Other Blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catster.com\/lifestyle\/grief-7-things-help-me-cope-with-losing-a-cat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coping With Losing A Cat<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catastrophescats.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Catastrophe Cats<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/catcatastrophes.com\/episodes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ongoing stories<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/catinthefridge.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cat In The Fridge<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/activecentreofenglishtraining.wordpress.com\/tag\/learn-english\/page\/5\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">English Proverb<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.robertgemmell-martialarts.co.nz\/pg\/courses\/events.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tai Chi<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.calebwilde.com\/category\/death\/funeral-directing\/funeral-merchandise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Funeral<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/reachoutwithniamh.com\/2016\/12\/09\/10-ways-to-remember-a-loved-one-during-christmas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Memories<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.helenekvale.com\/2014\/03\/24\/breathing-deeply\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Breathing Deeply<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/amisdechatbook2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amis de Chat Book 2<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=5QMBK9P5UQCEC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-174 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/506-694-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Amis de Chat\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Product Launch<\/a><\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-802-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/howtodealwithgriefpt1.m4a?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/howtodealwithgriefpt1.m4a\">http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/howtodealwithgriefpt1.m4a<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part 7 It might even be a piece of music, a song on the radio, a TV programme you watched together.
