Grief Brain

In the aftermath of loss, the ability to offer true support hinges on knowing how grief affects the mind, heart, and spirit.

Grief Brain is an essential emergency guide for anyone who wants to support a grieving loved one-but doesn't know how. Written by Darren Sugiyama, a respected business leader and bereaved father, this resource offers clear, compassionate direction on what to say (and what not to say), what to do (and what not to do), and how to truly be there for someone in the throes of devastating loss.

Blending personal insight with powerful research, Grief Brain explores the neuroscience of grief, the emotional landscape of the grieving brain, and the deep inner conflict between spiritual beliefs and raw human pain. People will learn the do’s and don’ts of grief etiquette, gain a clearer understanding of the stages of traumatic grief, and discover how to walk alongside the grieving—without making things worse.

For anyone searching for the right words, Grief Brain is an essential road map.
