Sacred Grief: Exploring A New Dimension to Grief by Leslee Tessmann

Sacred Grief offers an intriguing exploration of the far-reaching ripple effect of our present-day opinions about surviving grief's emotional roller-coaster and the unnecessary suffering our judgments unconsciously promote. You’ll find comfort in discovering that there's another dimension to this universal experience—a dimension that fosters trust, kindness and compassion, peacefully heals, and steadfastly moves you towards your soul's deepest desires and dreams.

About the Author

Leslee’s move from Seattle to Houston in 2003 and her father’s death in 2004 were the catalyst for surrendering to her unfolding grief with curiosity and compassion, and the telling of Sacred Grief. It is her first and perhaps most memorable achievement at writing and publishing a book about that which she is so passionate. To accomplish this out of a desire to help shift the Western world’s relationship to grief and contribute to the natural unfolding of the planet is to have one of her most closely-held dreams come true.

Leslee currently lives in Houston, Texas, with her two brown tabby cats, Kayla and Max. She travels to Seattle as often as possible to visit her daughter, son-in-law, and three grandchildren. Leslee is currently facilitating workshops, lecturing, and developing a book of straight-from-the heart prayers for times of grief and a book that explores the complexities and dimensions of guilt.
