If You're Grieving

"If You're Grieving" is Jacqueline Whitney's fourth book and her most focused — written specifically for the experience of loss, in all its forms. Whitney does not approach grief as a problem to be solved or a stage to be moved through. Her central understanding is that grief does not shrink or disappear over time. We grow around it. And in the meantime, we need to be seen, heard, and reminded that what we are feeling is not something to be managed away but something to be moved through with as much gentleness as we can give ourselves.
