The Understanding Your Grief Journal: Exploring the Ten Essential Touchstones

My mother passed away not long ago. If you need something to really help you work through your grief I highly recommend this journal and the companion book. Grief can be so heavy. I’m not entirely through the book and journal yet but so far it’s been indispensable in providing a safe place to discover what I’m going through when I can’t figure out my own feelings; and a sense also of what most other people might also be experiencing as well. It’s really helped me to cope.

It was a used book; but still in great condition.

Easy to use journal is great with the book Understanding Your Grief. Dr. Wolfelt is a great writer and truly understands the grieving process.

Im still working on this for my greif. It really digs deep

After reading the chapters from Wolfelt's book, "Understanding Your Grief", the questions in this accompanying journal put you face-to-face with all the issues you need to consider and work through. It is often tough to deal with them, but there is no easy way to get to the other side of our 'grief wilderness'. It has also helped me learn how to effectively communicate with those people who want to support me in my grief...but more importantly, how to deal with those who can't or don't know how to support me in my grief.Overall, a good duo of reading material on grief and the mourning process.

This is an excellent book. As a Minister and Grief Counselor, I have found it a very helpful tool. It is an easy read therefore making it a good gift for grieving individuals. Because each chapter is in many ways self sustaining, it makes an excellent resource for an ongoing grief group. Individuals can begin attending at any time, and not feel as if they are entering in the middle of something. It can be used with or without its companion journaling guide. The only wish is that I would like to see the two books bundled in a less expensive package. Increased sales would more than compensate for the reduced cost.

One of the best books I've found yet on grief. Lost my best friend and husband of 41 years of marriage on January 19. Toughest thing I've ever been through as I knew we'd live to be in our 90's together. This book really is a huge help. Better than the therapist that came highly recommended!

When I lost my father a few years ago, Mercy Hospice gave me a copy of the book that this Journal is intended to accompany, "Understanding Your Grief". The book is not intended as a fast read, but rather a contemplative read - one that this journal certainly helps you to get through. I read the book one chapter at a time - and it certainly helped me through the grieving process. While I didn't have this journal/ workbook when I read the book, I recommend that this journal be purchased along with "Understanding Your Grief" and used in conjunction with it

Perfect.

The best and most book on processing your grief experience

Great help!

Really helpful!
