THE ART OF HEALING IBD

Sinopse

Life is full of suffering, the challenges are inevitable, but there are big differences in how we deal with them and how we grieve. We have to be grieving the right way.We must understand that we are not insane and that grieving is 'normal.' Grieving is loving. It?s OK that we?re not OK. And we must also realize that we?re required to recover from it. We have the power to overcome our suffering.Life-changing crises can produce a transformation of similar depth. When we accept death, transform our attitude towards life, and discover the fundamental connection between life and death, a dramatic possibility for healing can occur. The pain reshapes our world. But all we have to do is try to survive.Learning that others have had similar reactions can help to normalize the reader?s sense of hopelessness and helplessness. This can encourage them to see that, with time and support, they too may become hopeful again. It may give a bit of hope to the bereaved that if others have gotten through the dark times and regained meaning and purpose in their lives, it is also possible for them.If we?re having a bad day, we might be wondering what we did to deserve it. Why do even good people suffer? Once we find meaning in our suffering, it almost ceases to be suffering. There are universal reasons for the tragedies in our lives. It?s painful to live without knowing why we lost the love of our lives. In its broadest sense, spirituality is a search for meaning, purpose, and connection. This subject is covered extensively in this book, citing quotes from the realized masters.We don?t have to accept the unfortunate situations we may be in as part of our destiny. We should rather make efforts to come out of them. And yes, we can, when we understand the larger picture behind all happenings and that there is indeed a reason behind everything. We will see how in this book.It is necessary to engage with questions as they arise. After all, our world has been rocked, and when that happens, the foundation on which it is built needs to be investigated and cracks filled.Where is God in grief? is one of the most disquieting symptoms. Why did He create such an imperfect world and an imperfect body for man? This helplessness during death is mistakenly supposed by some to be a punishment from God.If we?ve lost someone close to us, believing in a pain-free existence after death may ease the burden of grief. This book?s selected questions and answers will help the readers in that regard.We will surely miss them badly, and at times the emotions will be very intense. Working with grief takes time. Far longer than anybody would like it to be. It will be like bearing the unbearable. You aren?t ready to say goodbye.But we need to realize that our loved ones who have gone want us to be happy too, even though they are no longer with us. Life does not end with death.If we are sad and grieving for a person who is dead, we may keep him earthbound. That attitude is selfish. When our loved ones are reborn on earth, if our love for them is strong, they will be brought back to us. We will see how in this book. Instead of weeping and feeling a sense of loss after the death of those who are dear to us, always send them our love. By doing so, we can help the progress of their souls, and they can help us. Just say to them, 'I love you.' Dare to let go. Know that there is a life beyond this world and that all of our loved ones do, indeed, continue to live on, though they have shed their physical bodies.This book will be a spiritual healing journey.
