Cedar Rapids: Grieving Process: You have to feel to heal (NOT ONLINE)
Date & Time: Saturday, August 15, 2026, 1pm-4pm
Location: Four Oaks: 1924 D St. SW, Cedar Rapids, IA 52404
Trainer(s): Matthew Hiveley, PhD Tech: Tonya Watters
Description: Throughout our lives we have all experienced pain and injury. We accept this as part of life. When we’ve experienced these injuries, we also accept there is a healing process involved that is normal and necessary in order for us to be able to effectively return to our everyday responsibilities. What many of us forget, however, is this same healing process is necessary any time we have experienced a loss. Not grieving is equivalent to not allowing your body to heal after a major physical trauma or injury. Similar to other emotional difficulties in life, however, we tend to minimize the importance of the grieving process. This can result in anger, bitterness, resentment, depression and anxiety. The purpose of this workshop is to help participants understand the grieving process and how to help children, adolescents & adults heal emotionally from a loss in a healthy manner
