Many people who suffer the death of a loved one cling to the
experience of grief long after the actual pain of loss goes away.
This is because grief itself is a complex issue, fraught with
misinformation and unrealistic expectations, often leading to
interpersonal isolation at the times people need connection the
most. Ironically, it is often by embracing the experience of grief
that people become most fully mindful of life. Grieving readers
will find, in this book, a new understanding of their own grief
process. They will learn about the spiral staircase, a metaphor
used to describe the ebb and flow of emotional pain that typically
follow loss. The book offers readers ways to cope with the events
and situations that trigger personal grief by using mindfulness
exercises and radical acceptance, a concept that encourages the
experience of grief rather than its denial. Ultimately, the book
presents strategies for making life more meaningful by
acknowledging death and working to embrace life.
People who worry focus on problems and potential disasters, while
people who ruminate focus on regrets and mistakes. Common topics
for worry and rumination include fears about interpersonal
relationships, guilt, decision-making, and unsatisfied life goals.
Worriers fear the future and ruminators dwell on the past, but they
have one thing in common - both are unable to focus their attention
to the present. What's more, excessive worry and rumination can
lead to depression and generalized anxiety disorder. "The Mindful
Path Through Worry and Rumination" helps readers end these
negative, passive mental habits and take up the new habit of
mindfulness. In this book, readers use a combination of Buddhist
spiritual practices and proven psychological strategies to learn to
let go of what they cannot control - the past and the future - and
focus instead on the present. Mindfulness, daily wellness routines
that can serve as healthy cognitive distractions and behavioural
goals will guide readers to more content lives free of the distress
of worry and rumination.
