Your Loved One Lives on Within You: A Beautiful and Inspiring Approach to Handling Unresolved Grief

I would recommend this to anyone going through the mourning process of a loved one.

I do believe my loved one (Dad) lives on within me in that I am the person I am today because of the love and guidance he gave me. I miss him.This book certainly had some ideas I wasn't familiar with such as shamanic journeying. I am in the grieving process and have bought quite a few books.I am currently using the grief workbook, Write from Your Heart, A Healing Grief Journal and I bought After the Tears, A Gentle Guide to Help Children Understand Death (video) for the children in our family.My heart goes out to anyone who is grieving. May God bless you all.

With the experience of death, I found my inner strength at times insufficient to carry me, peacefully, through the reality of loosing a loved one. This book has provided additional substance to my own beliefs.

This book helped me move out of the crippling grief I was experiencing over a series of deaths in a very shot period of time. Alexandra Kennedy includes many suggestions and guided meditations that helped me to see that just because someone was dead and not physically present did not meanmy realtionship with them was necessairly over. If one of these ideas did not work or was not appropriate, there were others to explore. What helped me the most was that I began to realize that a new relationship can be formed with the deceased, if only I would allow it. This book is a must for those who are dealing with grief and/or those who are working with people in grief.
