Download or read book It s OK That You re Not OK written by Megan Devine and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2017-10-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging conventional wisdom on grief, a pioneering therapist offers a new resource for those experiencing loss When a painful loss or life-shattering event upends your world, here is the first thing to know: there is nothing wrong with grief. “Grief is simply love in its most wild and painful form,” says Megan Devine. “It is a natural and sane response to loss.” So, why does our culture treat grief like a disease to be cured as quickly as possible? In It’s OK That You’re Not OK, Megan Devine offers a profound new approach to both the experience of grief and the way we try to help others who have endured tragedy. Having experienced grief from both sides—as both a therapist and as a woman who witnessed the accidental drowning of her beloved partner—Megan writes with deep insight about the unspoken truths of loss, love, and healing. She debunks the culturally prescribed goal of returning to a normal, “happy” life, replacing it with a far healthier middle path, one that invites us to build a life alongside grief rather than seeking to overcome it. In this compelling and heartful book, you’ll learn: • Why well-meaning advice, therapy, and spiritual wisdom so often end up making it harder for people in grief • How challenging the myths of grief—doing away with stages, timetables, and unrealistic ideals about how grief should unfold—allows us to accept grief as a mystery to be honored instead of a problem to solve • Practical guidance for managing stress, improving sleep, and decreasing anxiety without trying to “fix” your pain • How to help the people you love—with essays to teach us the best skills, checklists, and suggestions for supporting and comforting others through the grieving process Many people who have suffered a loss feel judged, dismissed, and misunderstood by a culture that wants to “solve” grief. Megan writes, “Grief no more needs a solution than love needs a solution.” Through stories, research, life tips, and creative and mindfulness-based practices, she offers a unique guide through an experience we all must face—in our personal lives, in the lives of those we love, and in the wider world. It’s OK That You’re Not OK is a book for grieving people, those who love them, and all those seeking to love themselves—and each other—better.
Download or read book Lies Deceit Adultery and My Husband s Boyfriend written by Anne Maree Spencer and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2014 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lies, Deceit, Adultery and my Husband's Boyfriend is the moving autobiography of Anne Maree Spencer, as she encounters the heartbreaking news that the love of her life has not only been cheating on her and lying for over two years, but his new partner is a man. Her once loving heterosexual partner and the father of her two children has " changed his sexual preference" after 30 years of marriage. Anne Maree's pursuit of getting her life back on track with the support of her children and friends is a touching book about the power and determination of one woman's fight against feeling unloved and worthless to that of re-inventing herself. This autobiography tells it like it is, with no apologies for its descriptive language. You will be inspired by the author's rise in self-esteem and self-worth as she divorces her cheating husband, who left her for "Boo Boo," a man 30-plus years his junior. This book not only opens "a can of worms" of lies, deceit and adultery but puts into perspective what quite a few women are experiencing in their daily lives. Anne Maree opens her soul to give other women the courage and strength to grow beyond these harsh realities to become a better, stronger empowered woman. About the Author Anne Maree Spencer grew up in Melbourne, Australia. "I have been through hell and back in my discovery of my unfaithful husband. I have dragged myself up from the depths of depression. My friends encouraged me to write about it as not only therapy, but also as a way to help other women who find themselves in a similar situation."
