    The Heart of Grief with Thomas Attig, Distinguished and Award-Winning Author, Philosopher

    “When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure.” – Unknown Grief is a topic that we need more and more insight and understanding, and my guest, Thomas Attig, will bring depth to this conversation. He comes to us today highly credentialed and has been honored with several distinguished awards for his contributions to the study of grief, bereavement, and applied philosophy. The wake of our loved one’s last breath washes over our world. We can easily lose our bearings in swirling winds of change and in a fog of suffering, separation, and aloneness. The color and vitality go out of things, places, events, activities, and experiences.  Those closest to us can seem distant. It can feel as if chaos has broken out, even as we resent the larger world going on as if nothing has happened. Thomas Attig is the author of The Heart of Grief: Death and the Search for Lasting Love and How We Grieve: Relearning the World.  His new collection, SEEKING WISDOM IN DEATH’S SHADOWS: Collected Writings on How We Grieve, distills a lifetime of listening, reflection, and teaching into understanding and guidance for mourners, caregivers, and counselors.
