Ugly - The raw, intense emotions that may feel overwhelming.

Raw - The vulnerability and openness to experiencing pain.

Numb - A period of emotional detachment or disbelief.

Searching - The quest for meaning and understanding in the midst of loss.

Redefining Values - Reevaluating what truly matters to you.

Rebuilding Self - The process of reconstructing your identity.

Reintegrating - Gradually returning to daily life with new perspectives.

Restoring Purpose - Finding new meaning and direction as you move forward.

Open to HOPE - Embracing the possibility of healing and renewal.

The Rest of Your Life - Learning to live with your loss while continuing your journey.

Each stage is a crucial part of the healing process, guiding you through the pain and toward restoration.
