Zeigt Titel in Trauer & Verlust

Death might seem to render pointless all our attempts to create a meaningful life. Doesn't meaning require transcending death through an afterlife or in some other way? On the contrary, Dean Rickles argues, life without death would be like playing tennis without a net. Only constraints—and death is the ultimate constraint—make our actions meaningful. In Life Is Short, Rickles explains why the finiteness and shortness of life is the essence of its meaning-and how this insight is the key to making the most of the time we do have.

If it weren’t for Emma Johnson, Caryn Johnson would have never become Whoopi Goldberg. Emma gave her children the loving care and wisdom they needed to succeed in life, always encouraging them to be true to themselves. When Whoopi lost her mother in 2010—and then her older brother, Clyde, five years later—she felt deeply alone; the only people who truly knew her were gone. Emma raised her children not just to survive, but to thrive. In this intimate and heartfelt memoir, Whoopi shares many of the deeply personal stories of their lives together for the first time.

Trauer verändert alles – aber sie muss dich nicht zerstören. Lerne, mit Mitgefühl zu atmen, zu fühlen und zu heilen. Bei Trauer geht es nicht darum, zu vergessen.

Geführte Meditationen zur Überwindung von Trauer bieten einen ruhigen, mitfühlenden Ort zum Ausruhen, wenn die Last des Verlusts überwältigend wird.

Wie können wir Hoffnung schöpfen und Kraft finden, wenn wir mit Krankheit, Kummer, Schmerz oder Tod konfrontiert sind? Diese Frage beschäftigt auch Julia Baird, als sie schwer an Krebs erkrankt. Im Phänomen der Phosphoreszenz findet sie schließlich die geeignete Metapher für das, was uns in dunklen Stunden Licht bringt: So, wie es die Phosphoreszenz Glühwürmchen, Quallen und sogar ganzen Ozeanen ermöglicht, aus sich selbst heraus zu leuchten, können auch wir Menschen unsere eigene Phosphoreszenz erschaffen.

One afternoon many years ago, James Rebanks met an old woman on a remote Norwegian island. She lived and worked alone on a tiny rocky outcrop, caring for wild Eider ducks and gathering their down. Hers was a centuries-old trade that had once made men and women rich, but had long been in decline. Still, somehow, she seemed to be hanging on. Back at home, Rebanks couldn’t stop thinking about the woman on the rocks. She was fierce and otherworldly – and yet strangely familiar. Years passed. Then, one day, he wrote her a letter, asking if he could return.

"Sei in einem guten Kontakt mit deinen Erinnerungen. Später, aus der Erinnerung." Erinnerungen sind oft tief in uns verschüttet und neu zusammengesetzt, auch die besonders traurigen, schmerzhaften Erinnerungen. Mit dieser Reise bekommen diese schwer erreichbaren Erinnerungen eine Gestalt. Ohne in die Details schmerzlicher Erinnerungen zu versinken, wird eine erzählerische Form gefunden, emotional aus der Distanz damit umzugehen. In Form eines schwarzen Schmetterlings ist die Berührung mit der inneren Trauer möglich. Ein Leben gemeinsam gelebt, ein Leben geteilt.

Stefan Weiller besucht Sterbende und spricht mit ihnen über die Musik, die sie in ihrem Leben und an dessen Ende bewegt hat. Die Geschichten, die Weiller aufschreibt, und die Lieder, die er mit seinen Gesprächspartnern hört, sind so vielfältig und unterschiedlich wie die Menschen, die von ihnen erzählen. Sie zeugen von Lebensfreude, aber auch von der Angst vorm Sterben - und offenbaren, dass die letzte Lebensphase nicht immer nur Trauer, Stille und Krankheit, sondern auch Zuversicht, Liebe und Menschlichkeit bedeutet.

On the first day of the new year, no one dies. This of course causes consternation among politicians, religious leaders, morticians, and doctors.
