Hello, everyone. I'm thrilled to be here today with our guest, Paul Martin, a highly respected psychologist renowned for his clinical expertise in working with bereaved clients.

Today, we will be discussing rituals and how they can support us during this time of grief.

Paul has authored a compelling book on the profound impact of that topic which explores how unique expressions of loss and meaningful acts of mourning can guide individuals through the grieving process.

With his wealth of knowledge and compassionate approach, I'm certain he'll share his invaluable insights into the intricate journey of grief and healing and how rituals can help!

Here's what we talk about:

Personal grief rituals and their purpose.
In what ways do rituals offer comfort and solace to a person experiencing grief?
The rapid societal changes have caused ancient customs and rituals to fade away.
Cultural expectations and personal expressions may conflict, contributing to the complexity of the grieving process.
And much more!
