About this listen

 A modern classic text on the crucial role of grieving in dealing with loss, by the author who first explored the now famous five stages of grief—On Grief and Grieving is an invaluable blend of Kubler-Ross’s practical wisdom, case studies, and her own experiences and spiritual insight.

Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’s On Death and Dying changed the way we talk about the end of life. Before her own death in 2004, she and David Kessler completed On Grief and Grieving, which looks at the way we experience the process of grief.

Just as On Death and Dying taught us the five stages of death—denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance—On Grief and Grieving applies these stages to the grieving process and weaves together theory, inspiration, and practical advice, including sections on sadness, hauntings, dreams, isolation, and healing. This is “a fitting finale and tribute to the acknowledged expert on end-of-life matters” (Good Housekeeping).

I put off reading this book, I thought that it would make me feel like I'm grieving wrong because I keep bouching back & forward through the stages of grief but now I realize that this should have been the first book I reached for! I feel like my experience and feelings have been validated.

The stages of grief were originally misinterpreted, this book is very comprehensive and clarifys that every grief is as unique as the individual.

Whether you're grieving or not, this is an important book to read, as a society we do not grieve well - this book can help us change that.
