Moving Beyond Loss
Real Answers to Real Questions from Real People
By Russell Friedman and John W. James
About This Book
Unlike the other books in the Grief Recovery library, Moving Beyond Loss isn’t a step-by-step action guide. It’s a collection of the most common questions asked by real grievers, accompanied by heartfelt answers based on over thirty years of face-to-face work with people in pain. Never once do the authors suggest that grievers just ‘get over’ their pain or discount its impact. They recognize that each griever is feeling their pain at 100% of their ability and are looking for direction on how to move through and beyond its overwhelming power. The book is organized in chapters of related questions, making it easy to find the answers you’re seeking. It speaks to the heart, not the head — because grievers suffer from broken hearts, not broken heads.
