The Grief Wheel

The Grief Wheel illustrates the natural, cyclical process of mourning—from the initial shock of loss, through the emotional turmoil of protest and disorganization, and into eventual reorganization and recovery. This visual explains each stage in clear, compassionate language, helping readers understand the physical, emotional, and behavioural responses that often accompany grief. By recognizing these patterns, individuals and families can better navigate their unique healing journeys and feel reassured that their experiences are normal and valid.
