"The Last Adventure of Life: Sacred Resources for Living and Dying from a Hospice Counsellor", is a tool for healing and prayer. This book will assist anyone who is grieving, preparing to die, caring for loved ones who are ill, or interested in exploring new ways to view spirituality and death. It is an "introduction to hospice," honoring that hospice care is an experience grounded in spirituality. Because Maria's work in spiritual and bereavement care with hospice honors the inter-relatedness of all things, this book has a universal perspective and appeal. Anyone could pick it up and appreciate it; it is also likely to assist those desiring to go deeper spiritually.This book includes inspirational stories, poetry, scripture, prayers, and guided meditations. It also has chapters on grief and relaxation/healing tools, and a wealth of reference material. It is a "treasure house of hope and healing," reframing the experience of death as a new and exciting chapter in life. Through her work, Maria hopes that death, grief, and transformation of all kinds might be looked at in new ways.
We can see these experiences as adventures and "gifts" in our lives, rather than experiences to be avoided. Item Details
