In every life, some loss or adversity is inevitable.
Do you know how to transform adversity into resilience and growth?
This practical guide provides training in grief resilience, which is actually a skill set that can be learned, practiced, and incorporated into your life.
Written by a licensed clinical social worker who is also a bereaved mother, here is a unique system of coping with loss that combines insights from both her professional background and personal experience. This approach builds resilience and transforms the reader from heartache to healing, wellness, and growth.
Losing someone you love can be a devastating experience -- painful and hard to wrap your mind around. Taking in the reality of death and then figuring out how to move forward can leave you overwhelmed, shattered, heartbroken, and frightened. And because it feels impossible to accept the unacceptable, we learn by osmosis to put misery on the back burner and pretend we're mostly okay.
But we're not okay; this is not business as usual. We're left with that burning question: "How do I go on?".
