No one understands grief until they have experienced it themselves. Suddenly, you find yourself in a state where everything you once relied on fails. What remains are the memories. Recognizing your own treasure trove of memories, sorting them, and engaging with them creatively helps to find a personal and healing path through grief – this is what grief companions Anemone Zeim and Madita van Hülsen experience daily in their work. In this book, they write about what this process can look like and why memories are so important. In this way, grief can eventually transform into a friendly monster and a companion from whom we can learn a great deal and positively apply to other life situations.
