194: The top five regrets of the dying

194: The top five regrets of the dying

Today let's talk about how combining Aria’s Death and the top 5 regrets of dying has helped me live for today.

Before that, I want to let you know, that in January, I’m giving away a free grief healing gift for anyone that joins Grieving Moms Haven. This healing gift will include items that I’ve found helpful on my grief journey, including things for sleep, processing emotions, remembering your child, and some amazing things to continue to support you on your grief journey. You can join Grieving Moms Haven for a $1 trial for your first month, and you automatically get entered into the giveaway for the month of January! So go to www.grievingmomshaven.com and come join us!

In today’s episode, I wanted to go through these top 5 regrets of the dying, and share how they have shaped my life after Aria and some insights or thoughts about them.

  1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.

  2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.

  3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.

  4. I wish I'd stayed in touch with my friends.

  5. I wish I'd let myself be happier.

I hope that these 5 regrets of the dying help you to ponder for yourself in your life. Even though you might not feel like your life is a gift, it is, and you are here. 

Are you ready to stop cycling in the pain and anguish of grief? What if you could get a moment of calm and respite? After your child dies, everything feels hopeless and dark, and it’s hard to even think straight. Staying in survival mode keeps the cycle going.
