Mourning and Mitzvah: A Guided Journal for Walking the Mourner's Path through Grief to Healing
This is the 25th edition of a very important work--that will help the reader work through their own grief work. It takes the journey of grief--both her own mourning her mother and her sister--and her patients as a rabbi and a therapist--and provides exercises that go with the deep feelings that sometimes we don't even want to acknowledge. I loved how she took common Hebrew shoreshim (roots) and explained how they are part of the cycle. She held her audience and spoke directly to each person from a place of knowing what grief can feel like. I began this book when she came to speak to the Chicago Board of Rabbis and I am glad I found it. So much in it. So rich. For professionals working with people in grief and for people in grief. One caution, I would never just hand this to someone who had just experienced a loss.
