INTRODUCING

The Seasons of our Grief 

For years we have thought of grief as a series of stages through which people pass as they recover from the losses in their lives. This perspective has persisted for decades, and in spite of the lack of congruence with what a person experiences, our conclusions seem doggedly predicated on this linear, sequential way of thinking about grief.

Seasons of Grief proposes a unique and compelling way to consider the journey through grief.  Instead of a series of sequential steps, it is instead experienced as a cycle of seasons through which one passes.  Follow the journey of two young people and their struggles through the seasons of their grief - winter, spring, summer and fall.  Listen in to their struggles, their complaints, and their conclusions as they process their grief and loss in this unique way..
