BACK TO SERVICESGrief can profoundly impact a person’s physical health. The emotional toll of grief triggers stress hormones, such as cortisol, which, when consistently elevated, can weaken the immune system, disrupt sleep patterns, and increase the risk of heart problems. The deep sense of loss and emotional upheaval often leads to feelings of helplessness, overwhelming sadness, and a profound sense of being lost. Such emotional distress can manifest physically, resulting in fatigue, headaches, muscle aches, and a compromised ability to fight off illnesses. Grief can disrupt regular eating patterns, leading to weight fluctuations, and often affects the body’s ability to rest and rejuvenate during sleep.
Dr. Teel has seen prolonged grief contribute to mental health conditions like depression and anxiety, which further impact physical well-being and has created a free guided meditation to help you navigate the most difficult of times.
