As a certified Grief Recovery Specialist, one of the loss events which often seems to be almost shunted to the side if the death of a beloved animal companion. When our pet dies, indeed, often our relationship with our animal companions are often ones of unconditional love. There was all the time, affection, love, licks and cuddles. And we miss them. Pet Bereavement for a griever is another loss event. In the Grief Recovery Process (from the Grief Recovery Institute), we do not compare losses. Each relationship and loss is unique.
Indeed, grievers want the loss acknowledged. However, often the bereaved are looking for is a compassionate and knowledgeable person to help them practically with the emotions surrounding the loss event. The Grief Recovery Program provides a compassionately supportive environment and sequence of practical action steps in a seminar workshop format (typically 7 sessions for One on One, and 12 two hour sessions for a group workshop)
Grievers who are grappling with Pet Bereavement and who find that they really can't talk about it elsewhere are welcomed compassionately and with open arms at the Grief Recovery Seminar. Pet Loss Grievers approach me both via the internet as well as in person. They are almost dismayed to find how much the loss of their beloved pet affected them. Grieving over a loss event is natural and normal.
This summer 2009, is made available in Orange County, including serving the cities of Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Fountain Valley, Costa Mesa, Irvine, Long Beach and the surrounding areas.

Now that I am in Orange County in the Huntington Beach/Newport Beach/Costa Mesa area, as a certified Grief Recovery Specialist, I am being asked if I am offering the Grief Recover Process here locally. Yes I am. Many grievers are searching the internet under such topics as bereavement, grief support, and bereavement support groups. And I am always find widow support groups.
Below please find The Grief Recovery Institute's co-founder, John James, talk about how the Grief Recovery Seminar (he refers to it as the Grief Recovery Outreach Program) differs from "Support" groups whose focus is solely to talk about the loss and the grief.

I've been talking with local small-medium size business owners here in the Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, and Huntington Beach areas of Orange County. Turns out the statistic that 34% of businesses still don't have a website up is quite accurate.
What is even more true is how many of them have websites up which are dreadful from any kind of an internet marketing perspective. No SEO, no Search Engine Optimization, no Social Media Marketing, no dominating Google page one, no long tail words. No nada nothing.
Now the thing is, some business owners were sold a bill of goods by some web design company and they have a website. And they know it's not doing anything for their business. But they're embarrassed to talk about their perceived failure when after all their great skill set and specialty is their business, not the marketing of it.
While PromoteYouOnline, Inc. predominately serves Orange County based business owners, because of the joys of webinar technologies, we do have clients in other regions of the United States. Typically customers are able to reduce their ad and marketing costs by 50% in the first 30 days and increase their revenues by 23%.
Not bad for saving some money, eh?
Happy Selling!
