OPENING TO GRIEF is a companion to the tender time of loss. With the demeanor and tone of a loving friend, the authors offer an invitation to grieve fully, to turn toward your emotions and experiences however they arise, and to follow your own path toward healing.   "A succinct, comforting reference for those dealing with the loss of a loved one . . . The authors weave clinical observations, consolations, and practices (such as blessings to repeat and guided journaling prompts) into short chapters that explain the process of 'opening to grief.' Anyone suffering loss will find wisdom and helpful practices here." -- Publishers Weekly "Opening to Grief is a wise and gentle companion, a refuge as we move through the pain of loss. We learn to honor and cherish what has passed and to embrace our living moments ever more deeply." -- Tara Brach, author of Radical Acceptance and Radical Compassion "What's special about this book is it offers a way to engage with grief that doesn't seek to remove or erase it at all. The book helps you meet loss on its own terms, not as a problem to be solved but as a sign of deep love." -- Megan Devine, author of It's OK That You're Not OK "Grief can hit us as quickly as a bolt of lightning or silently creep up on us before we even know we're in its grip. Opening to Grief is a comforting and elegant collection of healing wisdom that offers differing paths to healing, through poetry, prose, mindfulness practices, art, and professional counseling experience. The perfect book for our times!"-- Sharon Salzberg, author of Lovingkindness and Real Happiness
