Help for the Hurting Heart - NEW GROUP - with Brenda
This workbook-based group (Help for the Hurting Heart Workbook, by David Kessler) guides you through the grieving process in a way that leaves you feeling at peace and free to create a life of meaning after your loss. While you can grieve more than the loss of a loved one (breakup, job loss, ending a friendship, betrayal, and anticipating loss while caring for a sick loved one), it’s important to learn how to honour and attend to your grief in a way that heals what hurts while letting go of guilt anger, and what-ifs. Please join us as David leads us down a path towards remembering with more love than pain. You can live a happy and fulfilled life, even after life’s most painful experiences. Grief is a journey. An electronic copy of the workbook will be provided to you.
