Product Description |
|
Here is a book designed to help readers recognize, ritualize, reflect on and re-orient themselves in the face of loss--to help heal the hurts caused by goodbyes and the anxieties encountered by change, whether caused by death, loss of a job, crisis, or whatever. |

Praying Our Goodbyes |
|
A great book for dealing with all types of loss in a non-judgemental way. The author has a way of connecting feelings and emotions to loss of a loved one as well as job, health to mention a few. |

Very helpful for people who are grieving any loss |
|
I give this book rather than a card at many funerals, and even for many other types of losses people experience. They report back to me they keep it on their night stand (or any other place convenient for frequent use) and tell me it is so very helpful as they grieve their losses. |

Life changing |
|
This is an amazing book for anyone suffering from a major loss or life change. Although the prayers reference the bible, the book is suitable for any denomination, in my opinion. I cherish this book and have given copies as gifts to my cousin who lost her mother and a friend who is experiencing a difficult divorce. |

Support Group |
We used this work as a resources in a support for group for separated and divorced adults in our Catholic parish. The blend of poetry, prose and useful spiritual advice was exceptionally helpful to our group.

Some Closure |
|
Joyce Rupp gives techniques to overcome many of the "goodbyes" a person faces in a life time. I found the chapter on Praying our Goodbyes particularly helpful. It does not take away the loss but helps one deal with it. |
