“This collection of beautiful photographs and reflections on grief is full of wisdom and understanding. It is a special gift for anyone who is grieving. This is a book that I will share with others” – Judy Tatelbaum, LCSW, author of The Courage to Grieve and You Don't Have to Suffer “Nourishing the Grieving Heart: Reflections and Paths for Healing provides those confronted with the challenges of grief a rich resource and companion. So many self-help books on this topic of grief are like academic lectures, this is worship!” - Rev. Catherine Crooks “As anyone who has ever grieved knows, healing is not a cerebral exercise. It is bigger, wider, deeper than that. While concepts and constructs can be very helpful in charting a roadmap for grief, this book goes beyond all that to embrace and guide the deeper healing experience of navigating the bumps and hardships along that road. It is on one hand practical and straightforward in its acknowledgement of common, private dilemmas in grief, while at the same time evocative of deeply personal emotional and spiritual healing practices that 'go beyond words.' Simple, honest, evocative, facilitative...and, somehow, touching, lovely, and loving.” – Sheryl Niebuhr, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
