We all have hopes about what our life will have meant in the end. But only in looking backwards, once the dust of life has settled, can we see what it actually meant. What really happened, rather than what we hoped would have happened.

Despite this, we can only live Forward.

For Kierkegaard, a "leap of faith" was to move Forward based on a Foundation of purpose and meaning that faith provides. That there is a point to your life. That you have value. That even the mistakes and tragedies can be redeemed for the good, in this life or the next.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is an approach I love to use in my work with my clients. Understanding and living out the principles in this theory allow you to LET GO....even learning to accept...some of the things in life that you do not have control over, while still taking meaningful steps and committed action towards the person you want to be, and the life you want to lead (because THAT, you DO have control over!).
Click this link (https://forwardcce.com/staff/hayley-hengst) to visit my profile and set up a consultation...or even your very first appointment...with me! I'm looking forward to connecting soon!

Grief and Rumination is a normal experience, which eventually gives way to new understandings about loss. But sometimes, we get stuck in looping thoughts, which leads to a prolonged feeling of distress.
