The Good Grieve

The Good Grieve is a book rooted in expression-for communities and cultures who have long been taught to be strong and to be quiet. For many, this leads to some unhealthy ways of suppressing and diminishing the impact of their life events, and not recognizing trauma for what it is.With The Good Grieve and Marceia Cork's simple G.R.I.E.F. framework and exercises, the author provides a toolkit for exploring what life can look like after loss, trauma and hardship-and she does it in a way that cleanses, heals and releases the weight of what holds us from the joyful life that we still want and deserve.This book reminds those coping with grief that it is also okay to explore the positives that can run alongside their pain, and to courageously reset memories to create new impressions on the brain-new visuals and imagery-that hadn't existed before. Quite often we relive painful memories and flashbacks the same way over and over again. This book empowers the reader to reclaim the parts of their brain long occupied with negative thoughts and memories by seeing them in a different way.Marceia Cork brands herself as "The Change Coach" so when she approaches the topic of healing from grief she often asks alongside it, "As you heal, what do you want next?"Marceia has commented, "Not everyone seeks or prefers traditional therapy and clinical diagnosis. That said, I intend to make a path to mental health and healing that is non-clinical, self-paced and nurtures the sense of agency and want for being a better version of themselves. "This is 'the good grieve' and life after it."
