Resources are abundantly available. These are some I have used or had recommended to me. As with all things, use them if they suit you, put them aside if they do not. Learning is an individual journey and we must start where we are at.

A video featuring the Dalai Lama discussing the nature of grief and its impact on individuals.
These are some resources that I have used or had recommended to me. As with all things, please consider them with your discretion, if they suit you, I hope they help. If not, put them aside. Life is an individual journey and there is no “one size fits all” model.
