Based off Bush's seminal 'Transcending Loss' grief model, this book provides an inclusive spiritual light to illuminate the darkness and set you on a healthy course of navigating the lifelong journey of integrating loss into life. Grieving is a universal yet disorienting and devastating experience. But like the ancient Japanese artform of kintsugi which repairs broken pottery with golden lacquer, grief is healed by filling the cracks in your life with light. Embracing a higher perspective makes the journey more bearable, the experience more meaningful, and the future more expansive.
