Finding Meaning After Loss

Grief is extremely powerful, but even after a devastating loss it’s possible to find meaning and joy in life again.

When you’re grieving, it’s easy to get stuck in your pain and remain bitter, angry or depressed. But if you can find meaning in even the most senseless loss, you can find ways to live a good and someday even joyful life, enriched by the lessons and love of the person who died.

This webinar on finding meaning after loss will share insights on how to go about it:

  • Why the six stages of grief were never meant to be linear 
  • What “meaning making” is, and why it’s key to recovery from grief
  • How meaning making can help you remember the person who died with more love than pain
  • The keys to finding acceptance and moving into meaning making 
  • Why post-traumatic growth is an important part of meaning making

The presentation is based on “Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief,” by David Kessler, whose youngest son died suddenly at age 21. He co-authored “On Grief and Grieving” and “Life Lessons” with Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. Visit his website for more information on grief.
