In this groundbreaking new work, David Kessler - an expert on grief and the coauthor with Elisabeth Kübler-Ross of the iconic On Grief and Grieving - journeys beyond the classic five stages to discover a sixth stage: meaning.

On Death and Dying began as a theoretical book, an interdisciplinary study of our fear of death and our inevitable acceptance of it. It introduced the world to the now-famous five stages: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. On Grief and Grieving applies these stages to the process of grieving and weaves together theory, inspiration, and practical advice, all based on Kübler-Ross' and Kessler's professional and personal experiences.

In You Can Heal Your Heart, self-empowerment luminary Louise Hay and renowned grief and loss expert David Kessler have come together to start a conversation on healing after loss. Louise and David discuss the emotions and thoughts that occur when a relationship leaves you brokenhearted, a marriage ends in divorce, or a loved one dies.

David Kessler, one of the most renowned experts on death and grief, takes on three uniquely shared experiences that challenge our ability to explain and fully understand the mystery of our final days. In the tapestry of life and death, we may begin to see connections to the past that we missed in life. While death may look like a loss to the living, the last hours of a dying person may be filled not with emptiness, but rather with fullness.

Many years of working with the dying showed the authors that certain lessons come up over and over again. Some of these lessons are enormously difficult to master but even the attempts to understand them can be deeply rewarding. Here, in 14 accessible chapters, from the "Lesson of Love" to the "Lesson of Happiness", the authors reveal the truth about our fears, our hopes, our relationships, and above all, about the grandness of who we really are.

So often, we think that grief lives only in our hearts and minds. But what about the emotions that weigh us down and the grief that gets stuck in our body? Our emotions need motion, and Healing Through Yoga is a unique, simple, and powerful way of healing. Grief Yoga founder Paul Denniston takes you through the stages of Awareness, Expression, Connection, Surrender, and Evolution with clear and compassionate instruction, poses, exercises with easy-to-follow photos, and meditations specifically designed to move you through that particular step.

Alaine de Winter stand besorgt in einem Krankenzimmer neben der ohne Bewusstsein im Bett liegenden Melissa Shadow, die sich in einer Art Koma befand. Die Ärzte waren ratlos. Sie hatte hohes Fieber und alle Maßnahmen es zu senken waren vergeblich. Lange würde sie diesen Zustand nicht mehr überleben... Im Nebenzimmer der Intensivstation lag der leblose Körper von Faith van Helsing. Raven und Angel standen schockiert an ihrem Bett... Eine Krankenschwester hatte sämtliche Geräte und Infusionen abgebaut. Die Ärzte hatten versucht den toten Körper zu reanimieren... es war ihnen nicht gelungen.

Dies sollte unsere letzte Schlacht sein... die letzte Schlacht um das Überleben der Menschheit... Der Kreis hatte sich geschlossen... Damals, vor vielen Jahren, hatte alles begonnen, mit Direktor Arowic, alias Aleister Crowley, alias MEGA THERION... einer der Großen Alten... und heute kämpften wir gegen Nekron und Cthulhu... seine Brüder... die letzten Großen Alten, wir mussten sie vernichten... und wir mussten auch Lilith und Graven aufhalten... und das Urböse... Asmodis! Konnten wir das überhaupt schaffen? Eine Handvoll Menschen gegen Götter?
