Life Reentry after Invisible Loss.

This is a Life Reentry class I never imagined I would be teaching when I started this work in 2010. But something unexpected happened during the last ten years, as I taught Life Reentry to thousands of people who’ve suffered terrible and unspeakable tragedies. Unfortunately, I blindly assumed, like everyone else that the loss of a person was the only loss that was difficult to come back from. I spent this last decade passionately helping everyone with a tragedy, reenter life. But while doing just that, I started seeing a very thin and clear thread. When a bereaved was getting back to living life, something invisible and unspoken would pull them back to grief.

What is an invisible loss?
It took me a few years to uncover the invisibility part of what I coined the Waiting Room.
Their narrative and linguistic use was hinting at an undercover world of grief. What plagued my class participants and emotionally imprisoned them long term more than anything were these invisible, mistakenly perceived smaller experiences that are not traditionally considered significant. These types of losses society fails to recognize, mirror back, or validate. Instead, we are left confused, alone and ashamed of what we hide inside of us while at the same time living in a world that appears whole, standing in front of our brokenness. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”60274″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]When everything looks the same on the outside, yet everything has changed on the inside, we break. We break in half. This is the duality of loss. The invisible grief narrative is not just dismissed or overlooked. I wish It was that simple. It is rather unseen, almost like a ghost. These invisible LOSSES can often accompany cataclysmic events but sometimes they find us without any obvious reason.
The list of invisible losses is so long that it would fill not only this class registration page but many. The undetectable cataclysms we live with every day are so fatal to our lives that if we knew the truth we would halt the infinite loop of routine on its tracks so we could grasp the desperation millions of people live with.
This daily life shadows the scariest monsters of our inner world. Aging in an ageless world, being diagnosed with a disease that nobody can see. Losing one’s job. You unbecome.
But before we can unleash ourselves out of the waiting room, or even discover the caves in which we have been enclosed we must redefine grief— we will courageously discuss the tragic loss of identity, the loss of innocence, childhood experiences, relationships, aging, rejection, abandonment, loneliness and introduce you to a new life. A life that is understood, processed, validated and shared.

What is the waiting room?
The Life Reentry® Model begins with the individual stuck between two worlds. This is a place we call The Waiting Room—a psychological space one retreats to after great loss. It is a gap between lives—the life that has been forced into the past, and the new life that has yet to begin. The Waiting Room is not a physical place, but rather a mindset. It’s a holding pattern—safe, comfortable, but inhibitory. It keeps one out of danger, and out of life.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1601523946578{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-top-color: #f4f4f4 !important;}”]
Who is this class for?
If you feel stuck in a place between the life you left behind and the life you so wish you can have then I hope you will join me and hundreds of others in our next Life Reentry class. This is a Life Reentry class for the person who feels stuck in the Waiting Room but doesn’t quite know why. If you have gone through something difficult, invisible, untraditional, or a big loss and have struggled to find your way back, this is the class for you. I will be using the Life Reentry process and walking you through its five stages. [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Testimonials:
“The Life Reentry® Class gave “names” to all the emotions I feel in my grief and helps me sort them out and understand them. The class gave me the ability to look at what I was feeling, acknowledge and decide what to do with those feelings. Also, the validation from others in the class is so appreciated and needed as you try to navigate all the emotions of your grief.”
– Carol Roth
“The biggest takeaway from life re-entry was to find out that I was not alone. I thought my grief was unique. In the first lesson Christina mentioned that grief was competitive and that caught my undivided attention. My grief was no worse than anyone else’s. I actually found out some people were experiencing my exact situation. And others were experiencing situations I couldn’t even imagine. That sentence alone changed my perspective so much.”
– Amy Eschbacher
“If all this class gave me was the hope that there was a way out of being stuck in grief, it would have been enough. But over the six weeks, I watched myself and my classmates learn and see the possibility of being whole again, in spite of the holes in their hearts. Forever grateful for Christina and her team, for their work, spirit, and endless support.”
– Jessica Kupferman
“This class provided me (and my brain) strategies,understanding and self awareness not only about how to navigate grief but how to live and love again in a purposeful and joyful life.”
– Colleen Mulder
