Description
Grief is simply love in its most wild and painful form. It's a natural and sane response to loss. Yet, our culture often treats grief like a disease to be cured as quickly as possible. In "It's OK That You're Not OK", Megan Devine offers a new approach to both the experience of grief and the way we try to help others who have endured tragedy. As someone who has experienced grief from both sides - as a therapist and as a woman who witnessed a tragic loss - Megan writes with deep insight about the unspoken truths of loss, love, and healing. She debunks the idea that we should strive to return to a normal, "happy" life, and instead invites us to build a life alongside grief, rather than seeking to overcome it. This book provides a profound and compassionate perspective on navigating the complexities of grief, and finding a healthier middle path.
