Try to get plenty of rest and exercise regularly. Restlessness is natural especially for a person who is sad or grieving. Try your best effort to take a rest; this is the only way to keep your strength. Make sure that you exercise regularly too. This can help in keeping you fit even if you're suffering from extreme loss.

Do things that you usually do like hanging out with friends, going to parties, doing chores at home, and other stuff that you used to enjoy prior to the grieving experience. Take time to enjoy; this way you can forget about the loss occasionally.

Even if you lost something, you still have your life to live. Don’t focus on what you've lost because there are still more things to come. Always keep these things in your mind, and you will gradually accept the reality of life.

The most effective way to deal with grief is through daily meditation, and this is according to many grieving individuals. Prayer in some form, and yoga, can really make a big difference. If you often do these things, you can get plenty of rest, which now is what you need badly.
