Product Description Life is marked by a variety of losses, says certified trauma specialist H. Norman Wright. Some are life-changing, such as leaving home, the effects of natural disasters or war, the death of a loved one, or divorce. Others are subtle, such as changing jobs, moving, or a broken friendship. But whether readers encounter family, personal, or community disaster, there is always potential for change, growth, new insight, understanding, and refinement. Writing from his own experience, Wright covers such issues as the meaning of grief, blaming God, and learning how to express and share in times of loss. Now repackaged and updated with additional material, Recovering from Losses in Life will help readers find hope in difficult times. Study questions included.

  Excellent book! December 18, 2008 I found this book at the lowest point of a break up/not break up session with my ex boyfriend. Long story short, he was telling me he wanted me back, but not until he did some dating around. I was stuck in pain and depression, wanting him back, but not wanting to wait around for him to do his thing. Reading this book helped me to understand that it is a loss, even if there is some sort of hope for a future. It was Biblically based without cramming religion down your throat. I wrote down so many quotes in my journal from this book, I probably should have bought it instead of checking it out from the library! Anyway, this book helped me to make the decision to remove myself from my exboyfriend's life to let him make his choices without them affecting me.
  Recovering from Losses in Life by H. Norman Wright December 7, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
An absolute MUST for every person. When we think of loss, we can tend to limit it to the loss of a loved one. However we may have lost our lifestyle which we were so comfortable with, our home, lost our dreams, our passions, our motivation for life, our job, forcing us too accept realities that are painful, which paralyse us from moving forward, bringing out anger, frustration and depression. Unless these losses are effectively dealt with, it will be hard to move forward and embrace the new things that lie before us. This book is an excellent tool in equiping a person through the grieving process towards wholeness and new strength. A book for life!

This book makes you examine how you treat all losses in life, not just death. It helps you realize how even small events can shape your life. I think this book is beneficial to anyone grieving or depressed, and can be a great parenting tool for anyone with children.
