"I did not come to the class because of a major loss. But once in the class, I realized that we have a cumulative of losses that lead to grief. This class has truly helped me to deal with my cumulative grief and how to heal with the pain in a healthy manner."
~ Diana Cantu, Former Women's Ministry Leader
"Entender el dolor que llevamos dentro es algo difícil de entender. Muchas veces ni siquiera sabemos el porqué estamos lastimados, o el porque sentimos o reaccionamos con dolor a ciertas situaciones. Entendí que la palabra "duelo", o la palabra "luto", son pérdidas que no sólo tienen que ver con la trágica muerte de un ser querido, pero también pueden ser experiencias del pasado que nos causaron dolor, el perder a una amistad, el perder un sueño, el perder una ilusión. A través de este programa pude finalmente entender sobre las heridas que me estaban haciendo mucho daño, y me dio la oportunidad no solo de confrontarlas, sino también de sanarlas.
La especialista Higinia Paszkowski fue una excelente persona para caminar conmigo durante este proceso, me ofreció un espacio donde pude hacerlo de una forma confidencial y totalmente segura. Yo recomiendo ampliamente el Método Grief Recovery a cualquier persona que busque sanar y cerrar algún capítulo difícil de esos que enfrentamos en la vida."

"Grief Recovery (GR) was such a profound experience. Not only was I able to gain healing from my own grief, but I was also able to gain wisdom for whatever else life may have in store. I was able to unlearn lies about grief and mourning, and how to properly mourn and cope with my losses in life. The community made it such a welcoming experience and I could feel the warm support of everyone also going through their recovery process. Higinia was a great instructor/guide through this journey. She truly cares about your experiences, is such a great listener, and shows compassion every step of the way. Grief recovery is not an easy decision to make, but I only wish I had had this opportunity earlier in life. GR made it less burdensome for me to begin this journey. If you are reading this then I would strongly encourage you to begin your healing journey!"

"The program helped me navigate through feelings I was experiencing and helped me uncover feelings I was not considering or recognizing. Could not have processed so much in 8 weeks without the program facilitator's guidance. Helped me see that the cloud of sadness would not be a forever thing if I worked through my thoughts and pain in the way the program guided me. Thankful that such a program is available."~

"I absolutely hated facing my feelings and fears. It was the best decision I made. I discovered so much about myself that I wouldn't have otherwise. This class has helped me in the process of grieving my the loss of my father and has taught me lessons that I will treasure for the rest of my life." ~

"I was afraid to start the class because I had lost hope that I could be healed from the past. To finally let go of the childhood I wished I had. I feel a new sense of hope for my life and my family and the kind of woman, wife, mother I can be."

"What I got from my class was my freedom. It was great to be encouraged to think about my true feelings, learn to feel comfortable to voice them out clearly. It impacted me! I learned that my feelings deserve the truth! I feel the tools I have learned in this class will make and have made an impact on my children and other relationships."

"I really appreciated making the person who I did the relationship graph over, a full human-being. I did not enshrine or bedevil, but got the whole picture of the person! I really loved though that I was able to acknowledge my pain, hurt and suffering of the past, and realize its okay, and normal to grief. It's okay to feel hurt and cry and what's only needed is silence or an "I'm sorry". I am excited to realize I can complete my grief."
