In this easy to read little book Dr Wolfelt, an incredibly empathic thanantologist, gives us down to earth ideas on how to survive the grieving process. Through these practical suggestions we are helped to move beyond silent grief to mourning - an essential element if we are to transcend our grief and become whole again. Open to any page and begin the self compassionate process of surviving and taking tiny steps toward living and loving again with our loved one in a secure and special but different place in our lives.

This book is very good for dealing with grief. I lost my wife at 54 after a 15 month battle with cancer about 4 months ago. I had heard the author as as a speaker previously. I bought this book for my adult children (29 & 26) after the loss of their mother. I bought the companion book (for Spouses)for myself. When I lost my bother (at 61)a little over a month ago I bought this book for his adult child (who was really struggling as they had not had a good relationship for a long while) and the companion book for his spouse. They have all said it was very helpful.
His various books on 100 ways to Heal Your Grieving Heart are really thought provoking and helpful. They are short and easy to work to read and put to practice. I plan to buy more as time goes on to help others in need. Losing a love one is very difficult and this book helps to work through the challenging process of morning and grief, male or female.

I am using this book for a Loss Support Group for senior citizens in an Adult Day Care. I've adapted some of the ideas to meet our needs. It is EXCELLENT!
