Surviving Grief - Victoria Mitchell

. .

Résumé :
Grief is a part of life. If we live life joyfully, if we love deeply . . . we open our hearts to the pain of loss. It's said that you can't have joy without sorrow. They are inextricably intertwined. In Surviving Grief, Victoria Mitchell takes us on a journey through this truth. She focuses on what we grieve, how we grieve, and, ultimately, what healing looks like. Victoria threads her own grief stories throughout as she illustrates the value of writing your own story and the importance of sharing it with others. Whether death of a loved one, loss of relationship, or sorrow surrounding other life changes - she addresses each with vulnerability and authenticity. In later chapters, Victoria offers valuable suggestions in helping others through loss, and looks at how we face our own mortality.
