Healing Grief: Reclaiming Life After Any Loss Book

World renowned medium James Van Praagh (Talking to Heaven, Reaching to Heaven) says he has listened intensely for thousands of hours to "the subtle whispers between our earthly world and the finer etheric world of spirit." In writing this book on grieving, Van Praagh hopes to offer comfort and reassurance of eternal life, "so that you do not have to go through the rest of your days groping blindly in sorrow and pain," he explains. Yet Van Praagh also offers doses of his own hard-earned wisdom, keeping this guidebook firmly grounded in an earth-smart kind of reality. Healing Grief is divided into four sections: the first part addresses "The Process," meaning how humans cope with grief, including personal ruminations on the classic four stages. In Part Two Van Praagh speaks to "When Someone You Love Dies," offering specific essays on losing parents, grandparents, siblings, lovers, best friends. In Part Three he recognises the numerous other losses that we grieve: divorce, mid-life crisis, losing a home or a job. In the final section Van Praagh speaks about reclaiming our lives, calling upon all that he believes of the after-life as well as listing specific rituals and activities that promote healing. Fans will appreciate the characteristically smooth writing and numerous fascinating anecdotes from his clients. --Gail HudsonRead More
