To watch a child grieve and not know what to do is a profoundly difficult experience for parents, teachers, and caregivers. Yet, there are guidelines for helping children develop a lifelong, healthy response to loss. In When Children Grieve, the authors offer a cutting-edge volume to free children from the false idea of "not feeling bad" and to empower them with positive, effective methods of dealing with loss. There are many life experiences that can produce feelings of grief in a child, from the death of a relative or a divorce in the family to more everyday experiences such as moving to a new neighborhood or losing a prized possession. No matter the reason or degree of severity, if a child you love is grieving, the guidelines examined in this thoughtful book can make a difference.
Updated to commemorate its 20th anniversary, this classic resource
further explores the effects of grief and sheds new light on how to
begin to take effective actions to complete the grieving process
and work towards recovery and happiness. Incomplete recovery from
grief can have a lifelong negative effect on the capacity for
happiness. Drawing from their own histories as well as from
others', the authors illustrate how it is possible to recover from
grief and regain energy and spontaneity. Based on a proven program,
The Grief Recovery Handbook offers grievers the specific actions
needed to move beyond loss. New material in this edition includes
guidance for dealing with: * Loss of faith * Loss of career and
financial issues * Loss of health * Growing up in an alcoholic or
dysfunctional home The Grief Recovery Handbook is a groundbreaking,
classic handbook that everyone should have in their library. "This
book is required for all my classes. The more I use this book, the
more I believe that unresolved grief is the major underlying issue
in most people's lives. It is the only work of its kind that I know
of that outlines the problem and provides the solution."-Bernard
McGrane, Ph.D., Professor of Sociology, Chapman University

If you've found yourself almost inconsolable after your pet died,
please know that you're normal. If you've found that your family
and friends don't seem to understand the level of your grief,
please know that, too, is normal. Without comparing our
relationships with our pets to those with people, we know that,
because of the unique emotional relationships we have with our
pets, their deaths produce a level of pain that is difficult to
describe. If you relate to any or all of these sentences, this book
is for you. We have been there and most probably will be there
again. We will be with you on this journey to help your heart deal
with the absence of your cherished companion. -Russell, Cole, and
John Your relationship with your pet is special-it's a bond that is
very different than those that human beings share with each other.
When a beloved pet passes away, people often resort to incorrect
mechanisms to deal with the grief, such as trying to move too
quickly past the loss (dismissing the real impact), or even
attempting to replace the pet immediately. However, these are
merely two myths out of six that the authors discuss and dismantle
in The Grief Recovery Handbook for Pet Loss. Based on the authors'
Grief Recovery Method (R), this book addresses how losing a pet is
different from losing a human loved one, and ultimately, how to
move on with life.
In October 2010 the authors became exclusive providers of grief-
and grief-recovery-related content on a memorial website called
Tributes.com, a site that receives approximately three million
unique hits per month, and to which readers submit very personal
and unique grief-related questions. Collected in this book are not
only a bounty of personal and often moving questions but also the
authors' equally compelling responses and tips for using the Grief
Recovery Method to deal with broken hearts. The book not only deals
with grief from loss of a loved one, but also the grieving that
occurs following a divorce, a sudden downturn in health, the loss
of a job, and even the loss of faith.
In this groundbreaking book, authors Russell Friedman and John W.
James show readers how to move on from their unsuccessful past
relationships and finally find the love of their lives.
Demonstrating revolutionary ideas that have worked for thousands of
their clients at the Grief Recovery Institute, Friedman and James
give readers the strategies they need to effectively mourn the loss
of the relationship, while opening themselves up to love in the
future. With compassionate guidance, Friedman and James help
readers to close a chapter of their romantic past so that they can
be ready to begin again.
