Allow Me to Live My Grief…: and Heal from the Inside Out by Mrs Ligia M. Houben
Validating the Bereaved and Raising Awareness in Our Society
Ligia M. Houben presents us Allow Me to Live My Grief… and Heal from the Inside Out as an offering of love. This book is a deep and transformative guide, inspired by her personal experience of losing her mother. It is not only a heartfelt tribute to her mother’s memory but also a compassionate companion for anyone navigating the painful journey of grief. Houben shares her personal story, offering her vulnerability to connect with readers, while also providing essential tools that help the bereaved feel validated and supported.
When we lose a loved one and find ourselves in the valley of sorrow, we can feel alone, as if no one understands our grief. For this reason, thanatologist Ligia M. Houben offers us Allow Me to Live My Grief… and Heal from the Inside Out, so that you feel understood and accompanied in those moments when it may seem like your world has fallen apart.
The author has dedicated her life, through seminars and workshops, to training others on grief and life transitions, and to supporting the bereaved in the most difficult times of their lives with care, compassion, and understanding. Her primary purpose has been to help others transform their loss and transform their lives.
This book is both a testimonial and a manual of experiences, through which readers will learn:
About the multiple manifestations of grief,
Tools and strategies to process it,
Clarifications of misunderstandings and common myths on the subject,
The difference between “mourning and living through grief.”
It also offers testimonials from people who have suffered the loss of a loved one, which the author refers to as “stories from the soul.”
Additionally, Ligia teaches us how to accompany someone in grief and how to heal from deep within your soul while continuing to honor your loved one, who, though no longer with you physically, as the author says, “continues to live in your heart… for love is eternal.”
Allow Me to Live My Grief… and Heal from the Inside Out is a profound book that not only provides readers with a sense of companionship during their darkest moments but also empowers them to transform their grief into growth. Through her personal story and professional expertise, Ligia M. Houben delivers a compassionate, supportive, and practical guide for anyone experiencing loss, offering them the tools they need to heal from within while honoring the memory of their loved ones.
This book is an invaluable resource for both individuals and professionals in the field of grief support, as it tenderly bridges personal experience with therapeutic insight. It is a must-read for anyone seeking solace and practical strategies for healing after loss.
