The Importance of Continuing Bonds
The Continuing Bonds Theory tells us that staying connected with a loved one after death can be a healthy way to grieve. The most common experiences reflecting continuing bonds include: (1) dreams about our loved one; (2) feeling the presence of tour loved one; (3) experiencing profound coincidences; and (4) talking about or to our loved one. There are a number of ways we can connect with our loved ones including rituals and memorials, engaging in spiritual or religious beliefs, and through the use of physical objects that remind us of our loved.
