Grief shapes us but we can learn from it. Through honesty, vulnerability and ritual we can navigate the chaotic, messy journey of bereavement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWise explores traumatic grief - the sudden drowning of a close friend in his twenties; intergenerational trauma and the sorrow that can be passed down through families; the emotional aftermath of his sister's death from cancer; and anticipatory grief - the pain of infertility and failed IVF when cherished hopes are dashed and we grieve a loss before it is born.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGreg offers solace and understanding through his own moving stories. He advocates for a change in our modern suppressive culture of mourning. Instead, we should allow ourselves and others an open healthy processing of grief so we can become kinder, more connected and experience happiness again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhether you're struggling to articulate your feelings or supporting a loved one through loss\u003ci\u003e, Grief Talking\u003c\/i\u003e will show you that you are not alone.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wise, Greg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56951584686466,"sku":"9781035058297","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/6575\/5522\/files\/9781035058297.jpg?v=1790675866","url":"https:\/\/archwaybookshop.co.uk\/products\/9781035058297","provider":"Archway Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
