Book excerpt: Written in poetic form, this book presents a fresh idea to devotionals. Pain and trials do not discriminate and everyone is tied to that reality. However, many are unable to smell, hear, see, taste and feel beyond the pain. Often the blessings are bountiful when we push through the pain and discover what lies on the other side. This book reminds readers that they are not alone or forgotten in their trials and/or pain and offers opportunity for reflection and introspection.

Book Synopsis The Long Grief Journey by : Pamela D Blair PhD

Download or read book The Long Grief Journey written by Pamela D Blair PhD. This book was released on 2023-02-14. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential grief guide and recovery workbook for those who have said, "I thought I'd feel better by now." Grief does not follow a timeline or a set path. It is nonlinear and messy, doubling back on itself just when you thought you were out of the woods. Those who have experienced the loss of a loved one know this unequivocally, but Western society still seems to think that grief should only last six months to a year—tops—when in fact, grief can last throughout a person's entire life and manifest as serious mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, anger, and despair. The Long Grief Journey, co-written by a psychotherapist and a clinical psychologist who have both worked with grieving individuals for decades, is for the people who are past the acute pain and effects of a sudden loss and are now learning to live beyond that. It is for those who by all appearances seem to have "moved on." They're working, carrying out their responsibilities, showing up for important life events, yet they quietly bear the weight of their sadness and longing for their loved one. There's a name for this type of long-term, unresolved grief. In fact, there are several: complicated grief, traumatic grief, complex bereavement, prolonged grief, extended grief, abnormal grief, exaggerated grief, and pervasive grief disorder. If you feel "stuck" after experiencing the death of a loved one, even if much time has passed, this book is for you. With exercises, journal prompts, and rituals that will further help readers along their grief path, The Long Grief Journey, co-written by one of the authors of the classic grief book, I Wasn't Ready to Say Goodbye, is designed to educate, support, and coach you to rekindle a desire to live life fully, all while still cherishing and embracing the memories of your loved one. Named one of Choosing Therapy's "14 Best Books on Losing a Parent for 2022."

Book Synopsis Sea Glass Promises by : Annie Mac

Download or read book Sea Glass Promises written by Annie Mac. This book was released on 2023-09-27. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everybody has a story. We are inspired by people who are able to dodge adversity and trials. However, the most inspirational are those who are knocked off their feet and have the audacity and courage to stand, rise or walk again. The reassurances of God, the promises that we can stand on and build upon, enable us to better cope with life's challenges. Like washed up sea glass on a beach, the process of "broken to beautiful" requires tumbling and friction but our stories do not have to end at broken. Beloved, broken is half the story. Written with poetic flair, this book shares the insight gleaned from what we can learn from sea glass. Relying on the promises of God, in the process of refinement and beautification, gives us strength to endure. Every wound can be a scar, every scar can be a trophy, every trophy can be a testimony on the path to beautiful and inspiring. This 40-day devotional with promise scriptures, original poems and questions for reflection will inspire and encourage you in your own journeys. Annie Mac, author of Look Beyond.. Ocean of Pain to Horizon of Purpose, is a God lover, wife, mother, and educator. She is inspired by the reading of God's Word and being in tuned with His downloads, her personal experiences, observation of others and nature. Her mission is to help others discover that there could be beauty after the rain, after the fire, after the storm, after brokenness. God's promises are foolproof.

Download or read book The Rock Balancer's Guide written by Travis Ruskus. This book was released on 2019-07-09. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first mainstream book about meditative practice rock balancing—with practical guidance on letting go of limiting beliefs and finding happiness in the present moment Rock balancing is the practice of piling up stones in natural settings, creating everything from simple towers to amazingly elaborate and apparently gravity-defying edifices. People balance rocks for fun, to challenge themselves, and to connect to nature and focus on the present moment. This is the first mainstream book about the meditative art of rock balancing, combining technical advice with spectacular color photographs of the author’s own balances, as well as guidance on approaching rock balancing as a mindfulness meditation practice. As the book guides you through the practical techniques of rock balancing, it also explains how to breathe properly, how to approach the rocks with self-belief, and how to face fear and go beyond what you had previously thought to be your limits. Finally, it discusses how to let go and destroy the balances you have created, leaving nature in a pristine state. The book includes inspirational quotes, tips and step-by-step instructions for beginner and more advanced rock balancers, meditative exercises to do while balancing, and fun challenges. A rock balance is a metaphor for whatever you are trying to achieve in life—and this practice allows you to train yourself to do more than you ever thought possible.
