This process of anticipatory grief is normal, but it can also be confusing and painful. Life is change, and change is hard. This book will help see you through.

Mindfulness and Grief
Author: Heather Stang
Publisher: Ryland Peters & Small
ISBN: 178249782X
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Without proper support, navigating the icy waters of grief may feel impossible. The grieving person may feel spiritually bankrupt and often the loss is so painful that the bereaved may lose faith in what they once held dear. Mindfulness meditation can restore hope by offering a compassionate safe haven for healing and self-reflection. While nobody can predict the path of someone else's grief, this book will guide the reader forward through the grieving process with simple mindfulness-based exercises to restore mind, body and spirit. These easy-to-follow meditations will help the reader to cope with the pain of loss, and embark on a healing journey. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of grief, and the guided meditations will calm the mind and increase clarity and focus. Mindfulness and Grief will help readers to begin the process of reconstructing the shattered self that is left in the wake of any major loss.

Grief Without Guilt
Author: Rhiannon Spurgeon
Publisher: Silverwood Books
ISBN: 9781800420779
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Widowed with a 10-day-old baby at the age of 34, Rhiannon didn't relate to the stereotypical definitions of widowhood. Not only was she younger than the average widow, but she also hadn't been married to Oliver, her baby's father. In fact, when he died, they weren't even speaking. Grieving a complicated relationship is hard enough. When you add in a death with blurry explanation, it can make characterising your situation too tricky to contemplate. Themes of addiction, infidelity, dysfunctional family dynamics and suicide all feature in this story. This is the book Rhiannon needed - a similar story that she could relate to so she knew she would get through it. This is the book she wrote to tell you that you will get through it too.

Welcome to the Grief Club
Author: Janine Kwoh
Publisher: Workman Publishing
ISBN: 1523511710
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
Welcome to the Grief Club - a place where one human who experienced a terrible loss, Janine Kwoh, is at the door to welcome other humans who are grieving. It is not an instruction manual, or a step-by-step playbook, or a memoir. It is, rather, a fresh, empathetic approach to all of the surprising, confusing, brutal, funny, and downright bizarre parts of grief. Combining her own experiences with grief - the author's partner died when both were in their late 20s - with what she learned from others in her 'grief club', Kwoh uses brief writings and observations, hand-drawn illustrations, and diagrams to explore all the different ways grief happens. Plus, wisdom and understanding in every line - there is no right or wrong way to grieve - and permission to grieve in whichever ways you need, for however long you need to. What to do when the world is your grief trigger. Signs you have grief brain. And gentle assurances: Grief isn't linear, but it does change and will soften over time. It is a book to put into the hands of anyone who is grieving, because from its very first page, that person will know they are no longer alone.
