Grief Notes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578970776)

Someone you love just passed away.

You feel lost, not sure how to move forward with life without this person's presence.

You're overwhelmed, in disbelief and thinking, "How do I support myself through this?"

Your frantic Google searches include versions of:

How do I cope with grief?

How do I get rid of grief?

What to do when someone you love dies.

Or maybe someone you love has experienced the death of someone they love.

You want to help and be supportive, but you feel as lost as they do. You're not sure how to help or what to say, but know that you don't want to be silent and opt for saying nothing.

The underlying question is: how do we support ourselves and others when grieving?

Grief Notes is an invitation to honor your grieving process. This book is a compilation of the author's personal thoughts on grief-based on her own experiences with grief and her work as a trauma psychotherapist.

The intention for these words is to support you in your journey as you learn how to honor and navigate your own grief.

The hope is that the words on these pages will be a companion throughout your healing journey-an energetic presence as you learn how to be present with your grief.

Use these words as a guide-a tool to illuminate parts of the grieving process you may be unable to see in this moment.

Your grief is sacred-it deserves to be seen, compassionately held and witnessed.
