The Grieving Brain: How to Navigate Emotions After Loss with Mary-Frances O'Connor

Why do you grieve and how can you overcome the intense emotions grief can often produce?

Grief is one of the most profound human experiences you’ll go through. It’s also inevitable. You can’t escape grief, no matter how hard you try. That’s what makes it so challenging. But you can learn how to cope with the natural ups and downs of the grieving process.

Dr. Mary Frances O’Connor is here today to help us understand what’s happening on a neurological level when you’re grieving. Dr. O’Connor is an associate professor of psychology at the University of Arizona and directs the Grief, Loss and Social Stress Lab studying the effects of grief on the body and brain. She’s also the author of the book, The Grieving Brain: The Surprising Science of How We Learn from Love and Loss.

Grief is always tied to pain, but part of the emotional response is your brain activating different areas as it tries to process your loss. Whether you’re experiencing profound grief yourself or know someone going through it, this episode will change how you think about love and loss while giving you tools to navigate this deeply emotional journey.
