Grief Matters is a powerfully written primer on understanding the body-mind-spirit construct of handling grief. It teaches the reader to define grief in its various forms, educates the reader on how grief moves through the body, teaches them coping skills to move through the process of grief and teaches the reader to be able to acknowledge and understand the symptoms of grief. Identifying what symptoms you are feeling is critical to the healing process. Clearly there exist different forms of grief: a divorce will be different than a death of a loved one; the loss of a job will be different than losing a pet; and children grieve differently than adults. Learning to make grief your friend and not your enemy is an important part of the healing process. Popular chapters on the Identifying Symptoms of Grief, Loss of Loved Ones, Children's Grief Processes, The Loss of Your Pet, Visitors from the Other Side are considered some of the best work written on the Grief Process!
