Living Through Loss (Paperback)  | Released: 01 Mar 1997

This practical manual trains people to counsel and aid others who are suffering loss and bereavement. It confronts the fear of mortality, promoting self-awareness and self-nurturing in carers to prepare them for the pain, fear, anxiety and anger of those who are, or have been, grieving. The manual is based on seven years experience running training courses in Scotland and later nationwide. Features include: an explanation of the learning method and ethical issues; role-play exercises to allow trainees to experience common situations; easy-to-use material for the facilitator and the participants; and further resources if extra training should be desired.
