0:00.0	Hello everybody and welcome to the mindful kind.
0:07.5	I'm your host, Rachel Cable, and I'm here to share insights into my mindfulness journey
0:12.3	and inspire you to create your own.
0:14.9	Each week, this podcast will bring fresh and exciting news about mindfulness,
0:19.7	from my personal experiences to useful tools and different
0:23.6	mindful techniques.
0:31.7	Hello and welcome to episode 44 of the Mindful Kind podcast.
0:37.1	Recently, I received an email from one of my listeners who

1:32.5	lose the relationship and the future you imagined. Your memories change and you might lose your
1:38.8	identity for a while. I know that might be hard to hear but I had to say it to show you what a big deal this actually is and why it's okay for you to feel the way that you do.
1:49.9	Try not to rush the grief process with thoughts like I just need to get over it or I shouldn't be feeling this way.
1:58.1	Instead, even though it's going to be really hard, be open to feeling what you need to feel
