PONDERING GRIEF AUTHOR LINDA ESPIE Official Launch by Dr Judith Murray
What this book offers
is a rich abundance of threads to follow as you walk through the territory of
your grief, the abiding feeling arising throughout these pages is spaciousness,
simplicity, silence. And time—time and space to feel and heal, to wonder and
ponder

Managing Editor, St Luke's Innovation Resources
Pondering Grief is a book designed for those experiencing the loss, change and transition to reflect on grief in whatever way feels meaningful and supportive. The book provides various ways to explore discover and express the thoughts, feelings and sensations often experienced at times of change and transition..
You may ponder alone or with others, you may pick the book up and put it down
again, as we tend to move at times toward our grief and at other times needing
to move away.
Author
Linda Espie says “Grief has been my teacher. I have been tested and I have
expanded as a person.My hope is that
you have found some room, and space for yourself and your reflections
throughout these pages.
“
Linda
goes on to say “Respecting grief in all of its unfolding and emerging have
offered me some deeply valued lessons.I am thankful for what I have gained in strength and conviction from my
experiences. Such is Pondering Grief”.
Pondering
Grief invites the reader
into a spaciousness that is open, inclusive, tender and eternal. This is a soul
offering from one who obviously knows the multitudes of landscapes that grief
can evoke. There is room in these pages for the breadth of human experience and
spirit. It is never prescriptive which is such a relief when it can feel as
though we are constantly bombarded with quick fixes and self-help manuals.
Pondering
Grief honours and nurtures
the inner life of each individual reader, recognising both the common and the
deeply personal experiences of grief. These are words and images that encourage
us to ponder, and then to ponder anew…
