Rituals and Cultural Practices for Mourning

In this episode of the Healing Trauma Podcast, Guest Host, Trauma therapist Dr. Mark McNear interviews JS Park, a hospital chaplain and author about the complexities of grief and trauma. They discuss the role of a chaplain as a 'grief catcher,' the importance of allowing space for grief, and the impact of personal trauma on resilience. JS shares insights on the significance of rituals in the grieving process and emphasizes the body's role in experiencing and processing grief. The conversation highlights the need for compassion and understanding in the face of loss, as well as the importance of redefining societal narratives around grief.
