Hope Edelman Knihy

Tato odvážná a silná kniha plná zkušeností a vhledu je pro všechny ženy, které ztratily matku a které hledají útěchu a porozumění. Každá žena, která ztratila matku, vám řekne, že tato ztráta její život nenávratně proměnila: že změnila to, jaká je teď a jaká bude. Odešla ta, která o ni pečovala, odešla její učitelka, rádkyně, její vzor. Doby změn v životě ženy - odchod z domu, vstup do manželství, děti - vyvolávají touhu po vedení a sdílení, a často se již není ke komu obrátit. Kniha Dcery bez matek zkoumá hluboké následky ztráty, které se dotýkají identity ženy, jejich osobních a životních voleb. Hope Edelmanová, která ztratila svou matku v sedmnácti letech, hledala knihu jako je tato, aby ji vedla, a když žádnou nemohla najít, rozhodla se, že ji napíše sama.

"A validating new approach to the long-term grieving process that explains why we feel "stuck," why that's normal, and how shifting a perception of grief can help us grow--from the New York Times bestselling author of Motherless Daughters Shouldn't I be over this by now? Why do I still feel the pain? Because of the common assumption that grief should be time-limited, too many of us believe we've done it "wrong" when sadness reemerges months or even years after a major loss. In The AfterGrief, Hope Edelman offers a new and reality-affirming paradigm: grief is not an emotion to pass through on the way to "feeling better," but a state that we repeatedly return to as we experience important life transitions and new crises. Drawing from her own encounters with the ripple effects of early loss, as well as interviews with more than seventy-five people, Edelman offers profound advice for reassessing loss and adjusting the stories we tell ourselves about its impact on our identities. With guidance for reframing a story of loss, finding equilibrium within it, and experiencing renewed growth and purpose, The AfterGrief shows that though grief may be a lifelong process, it doesn't have to be a lifelong struggle"-- Provided by publisher
