Re-arranged, Never the Same

Although we all know that we will inevitably experience the loss of those we love, our reaction to death is usually one of shock, horror, devastating sorrow, and resistance. Re-arranged, Never the Same: The Nature of Grief serves as a companion to help readers through the grieving process. This book offers a thorough inventory of the feelings and thoughts that arise for us all around grief; tools for navigating through a terrain of bereavement; ways to integrate grief into our lives as we move forward; and, eventually, to give ourselves permission to enjoy life again while simultaneously cultivating the possibility--and perhaps the experience-of staying in an ongoing "current relationship" with the spirit of the departed.
