Personal Grief Rituals: Creating Unique Expressions of Loss and Meaningful Acts of Mourning… Paul M Martin

A wonderful book showing the potential of ritual and how to honour the

memories and bond you have had with your lost oved one. Personal

Grief Rituals (PGR) emphasises how unique grief is and how our

grieving style can be inherently linked to our past. With this in mind, it

emphasises the importance of a professionally designed PGRs in

collaboration with the client to ensure the ability to facilitate something

both meaningful and healthy helping mourners to move forwards with

their lives without leaving their loved one behind. Done right, as this

book demonstrates in its case studies, this can be both incredibly

powerful and awe inspiring; whether incorporating nature or symbolism it

truly offers a life changing experience. I would certainly utilise my

learning from this book in my professional practice where appropriate

and useful.
