The end of summer often carries a mix of emotions. Grief, change, and transition may feel heavier this time of year.

But there is a way forward. By walking lightly—pausing in nature, allowing emotions to surface, and collecting moments of lightness—we can find balance even in hard seasons.

That’s the heart of my latest Growth from Grief episode. I invite you to listen and join me in setting gentle intentions for this season.

As the seasons shift, grief may feel heavier. In my newest episode of Growth from Grief, I explore how we can move through this time by walking lightly.

🌿 Embrace the end of summer with intention
🌿 Let nature lift your spirit
🌿 Give yourself permission to move at your own rhythm

These small practices can help us carry both grief and lightness.

Why unresolved grief can hold us back

How reframing memories helps healing

The power of vulnerability (and even laughter) after loss

If you or someone you love is walking through grief, this conversation is filled with hope and practical tools.

New episode alert 🔥

Grief doesn’t always feel like sadness.
Sometimes, it feels like heat—irritability, restlessness, anxiety, even rage.

In this episode of Growth from Grief, I share a different way to think about grief—not in stages, but in seasons. Drawing on the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, we explore how the energy of summer and the fire element relate to our emotional states… and how to find balance.

You’ll also receive gentle practices for releasing emotional heat and reconnecting with the heart.

In this episode of Growth from Grief, host Susan Andersen reviews key insights from the book 'The Grieving Brain' by Mary Frances O'Connor.

In the book Dr O'Connor explores the neuroscience behind grief, highlighting the importance of understanding how our brains process loss and the practical applications of these insights in supporting those who are grieving.

A quiet reminder:

Your back body is the unseen part of you that’s been holding you up.

It deserves to let go too.

💫 In Yin Yoga, we target the back body—the fascia along your spine, your hamstrings, your low back—with stillness and breath.
No effort. No rush. Just space.

🧘 Join me Sunday, June 8th at 5 pm ET for a gentle class focused on your back body’s release and recovery.

Did you know that the back of your body holds more than posture—it holds emotional memory?

In Yin Yoga, we slow down and spend time in poses that nourish the spine, soften the hips, and stretch the hamstrings.

These areas are often where our bodies carry unspoken burdens.

Practicing Yin can help us move through grief, stress, and stagnation—without pushing, only softening.

✨ Next class: Sunday, June 8th @ 5 pm EST

Let’s create more space in body and breath, together.

✨ Tension lives in the back body.

We carry so much—stress, grief, and long hours of sitting—right behind us.

Yin Yoga gently targets the fascia and connective tissue along the spine, hips, and hamstrings, offering deep release and space to just be.

🧘‍♀️ Lie down, let go, and feel your back body soften.

Join me in class and give your whole self the gift of stillness.

💔 Why am I crying about something that happened 20 years ago?

If you've ever asked yourself this during a time of fresh grief… you're not alone.

In my newest episode of Growth from Grief, I talk about how new losses often awaken old wounds. Grief doesn’t live in a tidy timeline—it lives in our bodies, our memories, and sometimes, in silence… until it’s ready to be heard.

This episode includes:
🌿 A story from my first Yoga for Grief class
🎙️ Insights from Dr. Peter Levine and Anderson Cooper
🧘‍♀️ Encouragement for anyone facing layered grief

🎧 Listen to “Old Wounds, New Grief” wherever you get your podcasts.
