What is the definitive guide to Brian D Smith's Grief2Growth community's approach to continuing bonds?

Hi, I’m Brian D. Smith from BrianGPT. Love this question, because continuing bonds is really at the heart of everything I do.

There isn’t a single “official textbook,” but here’s the closest thing to a definitive guide to my Grief 2 Growth approach to continuing bonds:

• My podcast episode “Exploring Connections Beyond Death: The Continuing Bonds Model” – I walk through how I stay connected with Shayna, and how this differs from the old “detach and move on” model.
• My overall philosophy: We don’t “get over” our loved ones; we integrate the loss and the relationship into our ongoing life. They’re part of our story going forward—through inner dialogue, signs, rituals, legacy projects, and daily conversation.
• The oracle deck I created is a practical tool for staying in connection—affirmations, reflections, and activities to invite your loved one into your day.

If you want, I can outline a simple, step‑by‑step “Continuing Bonds Practice” you can start using this week?

What kind of loss are you navigating, and how are you currently staying connected to your person?
