Grieving During COVID-19

As always, welcome back to the front porch! In the weeks to come, we will release episodes that are all focused on neighboring in the time of coronavirus, so stay tuned! To kick off this series, hosts Adam and Matt sit down on their respective front porches to talk about one specific element of life in the midst of COVID-19: grief.

In this episode, Adam and Matt first talk about the practice of grieving and describe some of the ways they are experiencing grief in the midst of this pandemic. They then move into sharing some of the practices that have been helping them, and others, grieve, and finish by discussing how we can journey with our neighbors in the midst of their grief. 

As they share in the episode itself, the topic of grief is very relevant to both Adam's work and Matt's work outside of the Neighboring Movement. Adam does work around social and emotional intelligence, and Matt does spiritual direction, so while neither of them are licensed therapists or counselors, they do have some thoughts to share around the practice of grieving. We hope these thoughts sow some seeds for you and that you enjoy this episode!
