Walking in Grace with Grief

Temple (Tame Your Inner Critic), a blogger, certified Reiki master, and psychic healer, finds her life irrevocably altered when her adult son dies in a car accident. She begins a journey on which she teeters between grief and grace, finally finding one in the other. Temple documents her healing process while making sure readers understand that she is in no way telling them how to grieve. Instead, she provides a series of guided healing meditations that offer peace, relief, release, and self-care. With a firm belief in life after death, Temple finds consolation in knowing that her son is watching over her and that he has entered into a spiritual existence where he lives on. Explaining this belief, she writes, “My understanding of Spirit, God, Heaven, or whatever name you attach to Source is that we are truly spiritual beings having a physical experience.” Temple’s walk though grief is both heartbreaking and enlightening. To fully appreciate the comfort and healing she offers through her metaphysical approach to grieving, readers must maintain an open mind about the possibility that relationships can transcend death. Those who do will find important tools for maintaining perspective in grief and finding peace amid loss. (BookLife)
