Includes bibliographical references (pages 344-357) and index.
Summary:
"There is an idea in Western society that grieving for a loved one should only last six months to a year. But those who have felt this loss know that the grieving process continues silently for much longer. This book is for the people who have experienced loss and who by all appearances seem to have "moved on"--but internally they bear the sometimes-crippling weight of sadness and longing for their loved one. Written by grief experts, The Long Grief Journey is a much-needed resource that includes exercises, journal prompts, and introduces rituals that aid the bereaved as they learn to live with loss"-- Provided by publisher.
