Journeys Through Grief Newsletter ~ July/August 2011 Issue

   Welcome to the third issue of the Journeys Through Grief newsletter!! Coping with any loss (death of a loved one, divorce, job-loss, long-term illness, debilitating health, etc.) is physically draining and emotionally stressful. There are days that you may feel as though you cannot stay mentally alert, or worse, you think you are going crazy. To give you insight and resources to handle these and many other emotional, physical, and spiritual struggles, I've invited some professionals as well as lay people to share their expertise and their personal stories to give you HOPE as you journey through your grief. No one should walk this journey alone.

   What began as a simple, four-page news and information publication two issues ago, the July/August newsletter is packed with twenty pages!! of articles, a book review, a booklist and websites some of our authors find worth mentioning, all of which are devoted to our theme for this issue, Healthy Grieving. I've also included information about support groups in the Kerrville, TX area. If you believe that the Journeys Through Grief newsletter is helpful and informative, I ask two favors. First, that you will subscribe to the Journeys Through Grief blog. Secondly, that you will forward this blog to a friend or friends.

   Sending comforting hugs,
