Senses.

Grief is experienced through your senses–your hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch.

A familiar song.
Unexpected fluorescent lights.
The smell of Autumn.
Bites of cheesecake.
The texture of a blanket.

What you smell, see, taste, hear, and touch show up in your memory of what has been lost.


Use your senses to feel your way through grief.
