My Brain Felt Broken After He Died… Here’s What Helped

After my husband Lew died, I thought something was wrong with me. I couldn’t think straight. I’d walk into rooms and forget why. Simple decisions felt heavy. My brain felt foggy… slow… tired. No one tells you this part of widowhood. Grief doesn’t just break your heart ... it overwhelms your nervous system and your brain, too. But here’s what I’m learning (and what neuroscience now confirms): Your brain isn’t broken. It’s grieving. AND it can heal. In this video, I’m sharing gentle ways we as widows can stay sharp, present, and mentally strong... not by pushing harder, but by caring for ourselves with kindness. Because we don’t have to lose ourselves while we miss them. You can carry love and still keep growing. You can grieve and still strengthen your mind. And you’re not alone in this. 💛 If you’re walking through widowhood and want support: 🌿 Join my community: Grief and Me it's free! 🌿 1:1 Coaching with me 3 month containers 🌿 My course: A New Way to Stand... a gentle 5-module journey to help widows find their footing again Everything is here @ginasevey.com I’m Gina.... widow, coach, and someone walking this road with you.
