Summary
From Grief to Gratitude: Back to You is a self-help book by Marion Turner. It contains guides and meditation instructions that she has learned from Dr. Ian Gawler and Paul Bedson, as well as quotes or words of wisdom from famous philosophers like Buddha and Henry David Thoreau. Marion shares her own experiences with grief and the steps she took to overcome it through self-discovery, finding the root of her issues, and finding herself.
Review
I must admit, this book isn’t for me because I find it tedious to follow instructions or read experiences that I couldn’t relate to. But I recognize the effort and good intention of the author to share what she has learned, and I did learn some things that are interesting, like her views on bereavement leave, as well as symptoms that indicate the presence of unresolved grief.
I’m giving this book 3 out of 5 stars. This book could be best presented as an audiobook since it mostly consists of reflections and meditation instructions. I’m sure this book will be very beneficial to people who are experiencing grief. It can be grief from the loss of a loved one, career, or anything that affects a person’s daily life for losing something that is very important.
