Titoli in Lutto e perdita

Grief is all-consuming. Shattering. After the death of a loved one, we ask questions about the meaning of life, the whys of death, and how to carry our sorrow. The Spirituality of Grief honors the complex nature of grief and offers simple comfort: we are not alone, and there is no one right way to grieve.

The Wound Makes the Medicine is Lighthorse’s deepest and most personal work yet.

Después de sobrevivir a los campos de concentración en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Auschwitz entre ellos, la finitud y el sufrimiento fueron un constante asunto de preocupación existencial y filosófica para Viktor Frankl.

Christine Hemp's debut work of nonfiction, Wild Ride Home, is a brilliant memoir, looping themes of finding love and losing love, of going away and coming home, of the wretched course of Alzheimer's, of cancer, of lost pregnancies, of fly fishing and horsemanship, of second chances, and, ultimately, of the triumph of love and family—all told within the framework of the training of a little white horse named Buddy. Wild Ride Home invites the listener into the close Hemp family, which believes beauty and humor outshine the most devastating circumstances.

Comment aborder le processus de deuil ? Il s’agit d’une traversée qui nous mène de la vallée des larmes à l’autre côté, dans la lumière de l’acceptation et de la vie.

Death might seem to render pointless all our attempts to create a meaningful life. Doesn't meaning require transcending death through an afterlife or in some other way? On the contrary, Dean Rickles argues, life without death would be like playing tennis without a net. Only constraints—and death is the ultimate constraint—make our actions meaningful. In Life Is Short, Rickles explains why the finiteness and shortness of life is the essence of its meaning-and how this insight is the key to making the most of the time we do have.

We often struggle to let some people go, especially when they made that decision. We question the universe, we question ourselves, and we question everyone around us but we never truly get our answers. Letting someone go takes time, patience, and commitment to actively stop ourselves from relapsing and thinking about that person again. The Art of Letting Go helps you understand why, how, and when you should let someone go so you can move on and never look back.

"Några tankar på att ödet eller döden skulle slå till fanns inte överhuvudtaget för vi hade ju fullt upp med själva livet. Det är ju sådant som bara händer på film eller möjligtvis någon annan. Absolut inte OSS." Men döden kan komma när man minst anar det. För Maritas make kom döden på en flygplats, efter en resa hem från England. För Christinas make kom den i sovrummet, på midsommardagen samtidigt som hans fru var på väg hem från landet med deras treåriga dotter och fyra månader gamla son.

The modern healthcare system has become proficient at staving off death with aggressive interventions. And yet, eventually everyone dies - and although most Americans say they would prefer to die peacefully at home, more than half of all deaths take place in hospitals or health care facilities. At the End of Life tackles this conundrum head on. Featuring 22 compelling personal-medical narratives, the collection explores death, dying, and palliative care, and highlights current features, flaws, and advances in the healthcare system.

Att få missfall är någonting som är väldigt vanligt samtidigt som det är någonting som det inte talas om i samhället. I "Missfall: Med rätt att sörja" blandas sakliga beskrivningar av vad som händer när man får missfall och hur det påverkar kropp, psyke och hälsa, med personliga skildringar av hur det är att själv gå igenom det en blivande förälder hoppas aldrig ska ske.

Don't waste your pain. None of us escapes the heartache and disappointments of life. To live is to hurt, and we all have the wounds to prove it. Regardless of how we've been hurt, we all face a common question: What should we do with our pain? Should we stoically ignore it? Should we just "get over it"? Should we optimistically hope that everything will work out in the end? If we fail to respond appropriately to the wounds that life and relationships inflict, our pain will be wasted; it will numb us or destroy us.
