Safe Passage: Words to Help the Grieving Hold Fast and Let Go (Healing Meditations, Meditations for Grief, and Healing After Loss)

by Molly Fumia

Overview

Guiding you through the grieving process. The losses we face impact us in different ways, but there are certain steps that naturally take us through the grieving process and ultimately lead to healing. In this grief recovery handbook by Molly Fumia, we are gently guided through these steps by words of profound wisdom and insight. Her writing speaks both to those who don’t know how to begin processing a loss and to those who have long been suffering under the weight of grief.

Contemplative meditations. The grieving process is a slow one, but it is only by going through each of the steps that recovery is achieved. With this in mind, Fumia provides meditative reflections for readers to sit with and focus on. By encouraging us to take the necessary time to contemplate our feelings, Fumia opens a space for us to face our grief and equips us to handle what comes with that challenge.

Find healing and hope. Healing after loss can seem impossible, but Fumia assures us that there is hope to be found. As an expert on grief, as well as one who has personally experienced devastating loss, Fumia provides a deeply thoughtful roadmap for the difficult journey we face after profound losses in our lives. In leading us through the stages of grief, from near disbelief and denial to acceptance and growth, this meditation book provides a helping hand to all those lost in grief.
