Life After Loss (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798201697679)

Make the gaping hole inside you a lot less painful

Your world has come crashing down. And the pain is excruciating. In this grief recovery handbook, Sheila walks you through the difficulties and shares tools to help you find peace and comfort.

One fine spring day, Sheila was informed that her sister passed on. Her sister couldn't fight her cancer anymore; it was over. What was life worth if it was without her beloved sister, her closest friend? The agonizing grief, guilt and anger that followed were normal and even healthy. Perhaps she could have done things differently and then her sister would still be alive? Why didn't she make the most of her time?

With time, Sheila realized life was meant for the living and it was time to heal. Then she took it a step further. Drawing on what she learned from her own experience, she went on to volunteer for families of cancer patients. This book on grief and loss is to continue her mission of helping people in pain.

Included in this book:

• Feeling the grief. You might feel numb and alone. In this book, Sheila will hold your hand and help you understand, feel and process the intense emotions within you.
• Tools to channel the grief. You'll explore different meditation and positivity exercises to take the edge off your sadness, anger and guilt. You'll get tools for the immediate aftermath of the death and for future grief attacks.
• Accepting help. Discomfort at accepting help puts a damper on the support you're getting. Overcome the discomfort and connect to others who are helping you.
• Supporting a grieving person. If you need to support a friend or relative or if you need to guide your children through your shared loss, this grief book includes a full chapter on how to be there for someone who's suffered a loss.
• The practicalities. Sorting through a deceased person's belongings, taking over their financial obligations and handling the reactions from others can trigger so much pain. This section will guide you through this to make your load lighter.

If you're looking for practical ways to move on, Life After Loss was written to help you.
