Attend a dinner put on by The Dinner Party.
"I go to these dinners put on by The Dinner Party. (Check them out! They're opening tables in tons of major cities.) When that's not an option, I find it best just to roll with the emotions. Feeling them through and experiencing rather than running from them helps. Most recently that has been talking to my best friend and having a good cry." —kylem48d466ed6
Set aside about 15 minutes each day to be by yourself in a quiet place to give yourself space to grieve.
"I am a therapist who works with many people who are grieving. One idea that I learned that works for some people is to set aside a time every day — say, 15 minutes — and be by yourself in a quiet place. Decide to concentrate on thinking of the person who died, or let yourself cry or just give yourself permission to give yourself over to the grief. This does not mean that all of your grieving takes place during that short time every day; however, it does help to create a time and sacred place to be alone with your grief." —maudebasset
