This book will help you learn:
- Grief is a process you need to undertake. Go through it and allow it to change you.
- Your life matters. Grief does not define you. Death does not define you. Life and connecting with your soul does.
- When you allow yourself to find the lesson in the pain, you allow yourself to feel, connect with your emotions, and develop an understanding that you are not alone. This is when you step into who you really are and walk into your greater purpose in life.
- Your grief is part of your new reality, and it can provide an opportunity for you to reconnect with your soul and that part of you that needs healing, love, and attention.
