Grieving a Spritiual Process for Catholics

Author Paula Kosin has come to know the rocky landscape of grievance very well—through her own losses, by formal training, and by accompanying many bereaved people in the grievance support groups. In Grieving: A Spiritual Process for Catholics, Kosin has combined deep wisdom from the Christian tradition with current insights from the social sciences to create a book that can be an effective companion for grievers—Catholic and non-Catholic alike. With a deeply compassionate, calm, and steady approach, Kosin joins readers to help them bear the unbearable and encourage them as they grasp for ways to weather the storm of their grievance. Her book provides helpful insights and information about human patterns of grieving and recommends concrete practices to support their process such as journaling, mindfulness meditation, prayer, and nature therapy. It also provides activities to meet the challenges of shifting relationships, such as handling the holidays and other special days, and offers many additional resources for coping and healing.

This book may be read independently by any grieving person. It is also designed to serve as the participant's book in a grievance support group. For anyone going through a period of grieving and for anyone who accompanies them, Grieving: A Spiritual Process for Catholics offers insights, useful information, and hope.
