Local Author Seminar: Grief Workshop
Have you experienced a recent life change, such as a health issue, move, job shift, or loss? Harriet Vogel, a seasoned grief counselor with years of experience in hospice and private practice and author of Sad Is Not Bad, will facilitate a workshop designed to validate your feelings and reactions, while offering you additional coping skills to help you navigate your journey.
Sad is Not Bad
Life is a process of letting go: letting go of conditions we cannot control, letting go of times, places, and experiences, and letting go of people as they move out of our lives. The pain of leaving those you grow to love is only the prelude to understanding yourself and others.
Sad Is Not Bad is a memoir based on "Dear Jerry" letters written to the author's husband after his death. While there are many ways to process grief, as a professional grief counselor, she had always recommended writing as a therapeutic tool. Experiencing sadness, one of a myriad of normal feelings, is part of the healing process; thus the title. You will also learn the ways in which private, personal ritual can bring comfort during the grieving process.
Sad Is Not Bad - It's How We Grieve After We've Loved will help you embrace your grief journey with the hope for healing.
