Life can be very hard when you lose a loved one who was very special to you. This can be a family member, friend, or anyone who has taught you many lessons about your life. How do we comprehend the mental, emotional, and spiritual sides to our grieving period? What are the first actual moments we are trying to relate to when it comes to the loss of a loved one? How does the grieving process begin after a loved one crosses over to the "Other Side?"

It is very hard to accept the loss of a loved one while you are grieving their death. Sometimes we cannot recognize in our own reality that our loved one has just left us behind.

These are the quietest moments that our mind is relaxed and our heart is open to the existence of their loving spirit. Our loved ones always approach us in the midst of healing the deepest parts of our soul as we travel to their level to reach them once again. They will take whatever measures to express their deep love and concern for us until we finally come to terms with their departure.

Another way of communication with a deceased loved one is through the scents of their own presence, loving touches upon your physical body, or even hearing their voices shout out to us when we are in a space of peace and tranquility. These are the times when we are relaxed in our favorite
