  • Summary

  • In this episode we delve into the world of “positivity” as it relates to the experience of living with a life-threatening illness or the experience of being bereaved. Often, well meaning friends and family espouse the power of positive thinking. Thinking positive can be supportive and helpful, however if it becomes the only emotional expression accepted or tolerated by others it can put undue pressure on the person who is trying to cope during a time of enormous change and challenging emotional upheaval. The demand for this type of thinking does not make space for the full emotional range of the human experience and is sometimes referred to as toxic positivity. This is a discussion that is relevant to anyone going through a time of struggle or for those supporting others through hardship.
