SynopsisThe classic guide for dealing with grief and loss. Daily reflections to find solace in our own lives, and comfort in the connection of sharing these meditations with countless others. After the focus on planning and outpouring of love from family and friends in the immediate aftermath following the loss of a loved one, we are left to enter a new version of our lives where someone important is missing. For days, months, years, the pain of the loss can crash in all at once. It is tempting to push that wave of grief back and soldier on with our new lives, but the loss will never lose its controlling power if we don't find the courage and love to face it. Meditating on the loss, along with the rush of love that comes with it, gives us a chance to rejoice in the life that was shared, and to look forward in which memories of our loved ones continue to bless us. The short, poignant meditations given here follow the course of the year, but it is not a necessity to follow them chronologically. They will strengthen, inspire, and give comfort for as long as they are needed., *OVER 1 MILLION COPIES SOLD* The classic guide for dealing with grief and loss.

  • Indeed, help for healing after great loss of a loved one.

    I lost my husband in March. This book was given to me by a precious friend. I read it daily, not just one day, but usually two, because it is so wonderful. All are so inspiring and bring me such comfort and hope. I have bought one, and gave it to a friend who just lost a three year old grand daughter. but want to purchase several to give to others who lose a loved one. My friend loves the book, too. They begin with a meaningful quote, followed by a statement of hope and a sentence of encouragement. So helpful. This is especially good for people of faith, but would be good for others, as well. I think.

  • Just the words of comfort I needed.

    I lost my son to cancer a few weeks ago and found this book of daily meditations. When I read it, I felt the author's words so encouraging. She had walked the same path in her own life. I didn't want to read a whole book on grief but a daily dose of healing counsel was perfect.

  • This book is outstanding!

    I have given it to many friends and family members who have suffered the loss of a loved one. I truly believe the entries each day offer a unique insight. They are short and well written, offering the bereaved a focused perspective. It’s easy to want to read ahead because they are that good, but the book is intended to be read to allow contemplation of one day’s concept at a time. I buy this book in bulk to have on hand. I also like to give a picture frame with the book. It is truly a blessing to receive.

  • Help for grieving hearts l!

    This is easy to open at any page and it’s very thought provoking and comforting. Everyone has their own experience with grief, but I think this book can be a help to most people. It’s very simply stated as well as easy to read. Gives a heavy heart some peace and comfort in the depths of grief.

  • Great Grief Daily Meditations book

    A great book for grieving people. I was turned on to it by a Hospice grief counselor 8 years ago, and I purchase it for my clients when I can find it on ebay.

  • Great book

    I bought this for myself 2 years ago for loss in my life then when my sisters husband passed away recently I bought this for her. You don’t have to read it all at once and I found the material to be very comforting and uplifting.

  • Book of blessings that continue

    The book has blessed me in my time of grief. I have given it to many others who have also then passed it on. It speaks to what those of us who have lost loved ones go through during and after the loss. There is understanding and peace and enlightenment and acceptance on the pages.
