On Grief and Grieving - by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler
“Grief is also the shattering of many conscious and unconscious beliefs about what our lives are supposed to look like.”
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, author of “On Death and Dying” has presented us with this new book, co-written with David Kessler, hoping it will become “a beacon of hope and light” for those who experience grief and loss in their life.
It is a moving and sincere journey of two friends who both are dealing with their own grief and losses driven by the inevitable death of one of them.
This beautiful and gentle book re-introduces as to the harsh stages of dealing with loss and grief, Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance in a soft sort of way. Through many stories of personal loss and grieving, included in the book, we acquaint ourselves with so many emotions that can accompany our intimate world of grief. It also emphasises that no two losses are the same. It is all so personal and experienced individually.
On Grief and Grieving is not just for people who have lost a loved one. As although it is mainly about death and grief, it also highlights all the other losses in our lives which are not necessary connected with losing someone. Life changes can bring loss into our lives without us realizing.
This book is for those of us that find this ever-changing world difficult to navigate at the moment.
