Publisher's summary

The grief remains, but you expand around it....

Prepare to embark on an intimate exploration of grief and transformation within Kintsugi Your Heart: The Art of Living with Grief. In this heartfelt collection of poems, Carol Banens, a certified grief to gratitude coach and certified grief educator, offers a deeply personal account of her own grief journey, following the loss of her beloved husband, Brian.

Drawing inspiration from the art of Kintsugi, the Japanese technique of mending broken pottery with gold, Carol beautifully weaves together the shattered fragments of her heart, transforming them into a life worth living. Divided into three sections, "Shattered", "In Pieces", and "Making Broken Beautiful", this book of poems chronicles the full spectrum of the grieving experience. With raw honesty, Carol illuminates the pain and loneliness that accompany loss, the disorienting struggle to adapt to a changed world, and the gentle steps toward self-discovery. Her collection of poems offers solace and inspiration, encouraging listeners to not only allow themselves to grieve but also to embrace the possibility of a renewed life.

Kintsugi Your Heart: The Art of Living with Grief serves as a compassionate companion, guiding listeners through the labyrinth of grief while providing hope for healing and self-discovery. Allow Carol's words to resonate with your own journey, offering solace, hope, and the gentle reminder that from shattered pieces, beautiful transformations can emerge.

The love in her heart for Brian is sacred …

I could hear it as I listened to her speak with such loving kindness & gratitude for him. And the grace she has been able to extend to herself in the healing & restoration process is such a beautiful blessing.
As a Trauma-Informed Life Coach, preparing to speak to a group of widowed women, this was far more powerful than I even anticipated. So beautifully spoken and written. What a gift this book IS & will be for so many hearts going through the grieving process.
Thank you for sharing your poems and healing journey with us.
