Growing Through Grief: A Compassionate Guide to Finding Meaning and Purpose After Life-Altering Loss

If you’ve experienced profound loss you may feel numb, disoriented, or despondent. The last thing you want to hear is that “time heals all wounds.” It sounds like an empty promise—one that negates the importance of what has passed. The truth is that you may never fully heal from loss—and that is okay. You can still go on to live a rich, meaningful, and vibrant life. This gentle guide will help you transform the overwhelming sadness of grief into validation, hope, and personal growth.

In this book, psychotherapist Alex Mammadyarov presents a step—by—step, comprehensive, and transformative process to help you cultivate present moment awareness, resilience, and self—compassion after the life—altering shock of a significant loss. You’ll learn to ride the ebbs and flows of grief that rear up in the midst of painful anniversaries and events—so you can navigate your new reality, relieve suffering, and grow. You’ll also find comfort and clarity as you face the challenges of our insensitive, “get over it” culture that prevents you from being fully seen during this difficult time.

It's time for a new way of looking at grief—one that is honest and vulnerable, and honors what’s been lost. With this guide, you’ll learn to grow through your grief—instead of moving past it—to create more meaning, purpose, and connection in your life.
