While working through the grieving process, there are many creative avenues that can be used to help ease and begin to heal the pain you feel. If you have hobbies like running, drawing, listening to music, writing poetry they can be used as healing mechanisms as well. Think about the things that you enjoy or that comfort you and are healthy and use them to help you work through the healing process.
Maybe you like crocheting or walking along the beach, take someone with you that you are close to and talk things out while you are strolling along the beach. It can have an incredible healing power as you appreciate the beauty and serenity that appreciating natures beauty can be bring.
Drawing, painting, coloring or any art form can be soothing and comforting as well. Work on things that are soothing to you and that you find comforting. When I was working through the grief of suddenly losing my step-father, I found coloring Mandelas in very bright and soothing colors calmed me for some reason.
Collecting angels is also one of my hobbies that can be soothing. Each person needs to figure out how to work through this process in a way that will comfort them. It is human nature to want to isolate yourself when you are feeling bad, however, the opposite is probably the best and quickest way to heal. Visit with others that are going through the same process, exercise, find a support group in your area if you need it. There are different healthy ways that you can work through each stage of this process, but try not to isolate yourself while you are.
Exercise can be a very good way to help you remain healthy while working through the anger part of the process. Kickboxing and running were very helpful to me at working out the anger. My hope is that some of these suggestions and the Healing Visions video below will get you thinking of and using ways that help you get through the grieving process a little easier and find the comfort that you need and deserve.

Healing grief is a really hard thing to do. I would normally walk the beach for a beautiful view to makes myself a little happier.
