‘From a neuroscientific perspective, the act of writing with a pen offers a multi-sensory experience that engages the brain in profound ways, fostering creativity, cognition, and emotional well-being’
(Dr Alan Richards)

A vital action of The Grief Recovery Method is writing, by hand, important emotional communication.

In the digital age, where keyboards and touchscreens dominate our interactions with text, the act of writing with a fountain pen may seem like a relic of the past. However, delving into the neuroscience behind this seemingly archaic practice reveals a fascinating interplay between hand, brain, and c

ARE CHILDREN REALLY RESILIENT?

As a child I was never encouraged to express my feelings. I was never allowed to say I felt sad.
And I was sad a lot!
I was raised in a dysfunctional home which was physically & emotionally oppressive.
I was sexually abused (from outside the home)
But I learned very early on to keep how I felt a secret.
‘Boys shouldn’t cry’ or ‘go to your room’ were common commands…sometimes much worse happened.

So of course I lied alot to hide how I felt
If I did something wrong I lied & lied until the accusations went away.
Telling the truth was way too risky for my health.

That kind of grief affects you throughout life.
I’ve developed a very unhealthy ‘internal world’

Unhealthy for an adult that is.
As a child it made perfect sense, it meant I survived

So…I am so grateful for the Grief Recovery Method. Using it has allowed me to ‘complete’ the grief I’ve carried for years.

It has allowed me to communicate what I need to get free, being heard by a loving, safe person.

So I wasn’t resilient, I just learned how to hide, a survival mechanism.
You don’t need to live with childhood grief.

You're allowed to still be grieving.

You're allowed to not be "over it."

You're allowed to be angry that nobody taught you what to do with this.

You were told to be strong. You were told to stay busy. You were told it just takes time.

And none of it worked.

That's not because you failed at grief. It's because you were given bad information by good people who didn't know what else to say.

You're allowed to want more than "learning to live with it."

You're allowed to believe that recovery is possible.

Ok, Ok, I admit it…I feel things alot more deeply than I let on.
& because I don’t let on, my internal world can feel like a mass of spaghetti.
Take this Christmas. My family & I spent 3 days together. Great food, lots of presents, great tv, chocolate…fun times!
But by Boxing Day I was consumed with strong feelings. Shame, guilt, rage. I felt angry at everyone, I felt judgemental, I was desperately unhappy.
So what was happening to me?
In another part of my world my childhood friend is going through hell.
He lives 350 miles away so I don’t get to visit him often, but I’m in touch with those around him & know what he’s going through.
He has cancer in his throat & tongue.
He can no longer speak. He can no longer eat with his mouth, he has a tube directly into his stomach & 3 times a day a carer pumps goo directly into him.
He also has alcoholic dementia. He forgets close friends, he forgets from minute to minute. He is slipping away, not slowly, but he is gradually going.
So my inner turmoil is because deep down I’m desperately sad & angry that I’m losing my friend.
I need to communicate events & feelings around them that I experience in our relationship.
Our connection is forged through our friendship in early childhood, our scrapes as teenage pals, & the crazy times we spent together in our 20’s.
I need to apologise, I need to forgive, I need to issue important statements, & all while being heard.
This is the beginning of the path to my healing.
Walk with me in 2026 towards emotional freedom.
Regain strength to help & not just hurt.
