Welcome to our second season looking at grief here at "MwT: Grief Busting with Dina Bell-Laroche." Grief Busting is a special on MwT and this time we’ll go through Dina’s book “Grief Unleashed: Moving from the hole in our heart to wholehearted,” chapter-by-chapter. These unscripted conversations are like a dance: we jump around the topic of grief and bereavement in service of deepening our understanding, and our connection to joy.
In this first episode in our book review, we’re exploring the information in the Prelude of Dina’s book, “Grief Unleased: Moving from the hole in our hearts to wholehearted.” The Prelude sets the table for the book, sharing her “why” in writing…. which is to dispel the myths around grief, to demystify it in service of living a more full life, so we can better embody our experience and grow as a result of it. At the core, Dina knows that grief is an internal response to a severed attachment. The process of grieving effectively provides nutrients that builds our capacity to handle change.
