Honoring Your Not All Better Yet Days | Bonus Interactive Episode

Grief is a Sneaky Bitch

In this interactive bonus episode, host Lisa Keefauver invites listeners to reflect on the importance of honoring or creating ritual for the anniversaries of the day their lives changed - even when they're “not all better yet.” This episode emerged after the overwhelming feedback she received from an essay she recently shared called “Honoring the ‘Not All Better Yet’ Anniversaries” about the one-year anniversary of her Breast Cancer Diagnosis.

In this episode, listeners are:

• Guided through a compassion meditation,
• Invited to hold space for Lisa’s story of honoring the anniversary of her Breast Cancer diagnosis,
• Given a series of questions that will help them create their own ritual for honoring their "not all better yet" anniversaries,
• Read a short excerpt on the topic of starting close in from her forthcoming book, Grief is a Sneaky Bitch: An Uncensored Guide to Navigating Loss.

“But what struck me last month is the lack of acknowledgment or ritual for those before/after days where we’re not in the “after” yet. How do we honor the time that’s passed since our lives shifted when we’re still in the middle of that change? When there is still a force in motion, and we haven’t arrived at the other side. For me, that day was last month on the one-year anniversary of the day I got my Breast Cancer diagnosis. One year later and I’m not all better yet, I’m not on the other side.” - Lisa Keefauver
