New Book for Widowers Recently Released

The Widower’s Guide to a New Life shares the personal stories of ten bereaved men as they cope with the trauma of losing their spouse.
 
July 30, 2014 - PRLog -- Whether your loss is recent or you’ve been without your wife for several years, this book will help you handle some of the most common challenges facing widowers, including:

·         how to console yourself through friends, work and prayer;

·         how to start over in terms of new activities, dating, and social life; and

·         how to know when and if another love relationship is right for you.

Guidelines are provided at the end of each section to help the grieving widower begin a new and fulfilling life.

The book is divided into four parts. Part One deals with grieving. Part Two is concerned with consoling yourself. Part Three discusses starting over. Part Four focuses on the “new life.”

The author deals with the big issues, such as being alone on holidays, self-esteem, loneliness, aging, socialization, venturing out, and falling in love again. She also deals with the nitty-gritty, little issues, such as learning to cook, caring for children, and cleaning out the closet. The book also contains a helpful index.

The author is not only knowledgeable about the subject of her book, but also she has thoroughly researched, and more important, as a widow, has lived a parallel form of it.

A companioin volume, Widow: A Survival Guide for the First Year, was selected as a January 2013 feature by Small Press Bookwatch
