About The 4 Facets of Grief: Heal Your Heart, Rebuild Your World, and Find New Pathways to Joy by Ruth E. Field, LCSW

Are you wondering how to go on after someone you love has died?

Do you wish you felt confident about grieving and knew healthy options for coping?

Are you longing for healing, peace, and a new sense of order in your world?

This practical guide provides training in grief resilience, which is actually a skill set that can be learned, practiced, and incorporated into your life. Written by a licensed clinical social worker who is also a bereaved mother, the book presents a unique system that combines insights from both her professional background and personal experience. This approach builds grief resilience and transforms the reader from heartache to healing, wellness, and growth.

Losing someone you love can be a devastating experience. It is often excruciatingly painful and hard to wrap your mind around. Trying to take in this new reality and then figuring out how to move forward can leave you overwhelmed, shattered, heartbroken, and frightened. And because it feels impossible to accept the unacceptable, we learn by osmosis to put misery on the back burner and pretend we’re mostly okay.

But we’re not okay; this is not business as usual. We’re left with that burning question: “How do I go on?”

The 4 Facets of Grief is a fresh approach to navigating loss, incorporating the most current thinking on resilience and growth. You will learn:
-Techniques for accepting the unacceptable
-Ways of rebuilding your world and reclaiming hope
-How to create meaning in difficult times
-Self-care routines to increase your energy, focus, and ability to relax

Each section includes descriptive stories that illustrate the concept and skill-building suggestions for the reader to practice.

By following the guidance in this book, you will feel more resilient, utilize better coping strategies, and create greater serenity than you even thought possible. You will notice your relationships improving as you move through sorrow and reintegrate peace and even joy. And you’ll increase your self-confidence, realizing that you now have the tools to face adversity and create your own new reality.

This is one guidebook that really helps.

Author Bio:
Ruth E. Field has always wanted to help people. Inspired by her well-respected and beloved physician father, she grew up valuing service to others.

Through the years, Ruth experienced the untimely deaths of many close family members and dear friends. She accompanied them through illnesses that ravaged body and mind, and she shared the trauma of sudden devastating accidents. All the while she pondered why such painful loss seemed to swirl around her.

In 1999 Ruth joined with other parents to co-found the Child & Adolescent Bipolar Foundation (now part of the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance). It was the first internet-based not-for-profit organization, and reflected her passion to help families fight the stigma and isolation of mental health diagnoses. As the founding CABF board president, she spoke at area conferences and workshops on the family impact of early-onset mood disorders. One of her most memorable presentations was Witness to Grief: Experiencing Loss in Parenting Children and Adolescents with Bipolar Disorder.

Ruth’s calling to teach resilience crystallized after the accidental death of her young adult son. Having transformed her own sorrow into a personal mission to foster post traumatic growth, she is dedicated to helping others navigate all types of adversity. Honoring her son’s legacy of hope, she blends her personal and professional wisdom to guide others from heartbreak to healing.

Ruth holds a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. She also is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois. At her private psychotherapy practice in Northfield, IL, she is honored to work with adolescents, adults, and families.

In addition to writing, Ruth enjoys nature hikes, movies, and laughing with her husband Alan. She also loves sharing meals with friends and family. Her greatest joy is spending time with her grandchildren and delighting in their growth.

About The Tenth Nail

Nate Burns, a seasoned detective, knelt beside the dead girl. This wasn’t Nate’s first homicide; it wasn’t even the first murder of a prostitute that he’d investigated. But, this one bothered him. Maybe it was her youth; she appeared to be in her early twenties. Maybe it was her looks, as death had yet to rob her of her beauty. Maybe she reminded him of his daughter, Lizzie, who was only a few years younger. Maybe it was something else entirely.

About Another One

Detective Evan Parker is being haunted by the past. After two tours in the Afghanistan War, he thought the horrors that he witnessed there were behind him. But the death of his partner has now opened a dark hole of memories that are threatening to swallow Parker alive. Desperate to maintain his grip, he focuses on the last unsolved case his partner left behind: the brutal murder of Hymie Villarosa.

Father Bernardino Soltera is being destroyed by the present. After ministering to the gang ridden streets of East L.A. for over twenty years, he’s unable to see past the pain and suffering that drugs and violence have wreaked on his neighborhood; he’s ready to give up. But when a young girl confesses that she’s pregnant and her boyfriend will hurt her if she doesn’t get an abortion? Father Soltera decides to make one more stand.

Hector Villarosa is being mocked by the future. After being released from jail he discovers the love of his life is with another man. As the leader of his gang, losing face could mean losing his life, and the fact that detectives are now asking questions about the death of Hector’s cousin, Hymie, isn’t helping. But Hector’s bigger problem is the demon that has followed him out of jail and on to the mean streets of East L.A.

Three men, one neighborhood. All about to discover that the veil between this world and the next is razor thin.

About Forevermore

As a recovered alcoholic, I wanted to play devil’s advocate and try to show how Edgar Allan Poe may have been sober (and murdered) when he died in 1849 at Baltimore, Maryland. The result was Forevermore, the first mystery in the popular Detective Pat O’Malley Historical and Steampunk Mystery Series. To my delight, this first mystery has garnered much praise. It was awarded the First Place Award in the Historical Mystery category in Chanticleer’s Clue Mystery competition, and it was a Finalist in the Best Digital Fiction Category of the Next Generation Book Awards. It was also selected by readers as the Book Club Choice at the international Noveltunity web site, and as a “book of the week” choice at Publishers Weekly’s BookWorks.com.
