Sadness: A Small Return to Life
$27
When the day feels heavy, begin with one good still possible.
Loss, disappointment, regret—or a sadness you cannot easily explain. This practical guide gives you room to understand what hurts, examine the conclusions you are drawing, and find a small action that still matters.
You do not have to force yourself to feel cheerful or pretend that what you lost was unimportant.
