A
Pilgrimage Through Grief
Healing the Soul's Hurt After Loss
While the word “grief”
is in the title, this book is about much more than grief.
It's about understanding the process of human transition in
terms of a universal spiritual discipline: the act of taking
a pilgrimage. Four experiences are visited in this beautiful
book: absence, aloneness, silence, and mystery. Rich photography
is featured on almost every page. The poetic text has made
this a very popular book. Read

By
the Waters of Babylon
A Spiritual Pilgrimage for Those Who Feel Dislocated
Transition can be disorienting
and even frightening. This artistic six-part video takes viewers
on a unique pilgrimage—not to places, but to experiences.
The introduction explains the idea of pilgrimage and sets
the stage for four “visits” to absence, aloneness,
silence, and mystery. The goal is to move more deeply into
each experience, to see what else awaits there. The final
section returns the viewer home, broadened and affirmed. Beautiful
photography from nature elicits natural feelings and confirms
one's life story. For individual use as well as group sessions.

Gaining
a Heart of Wisdom
Finding Meaning in the Autumn of Your Life
While growing older has its
drawbacks, it also has its advantages. Jim Miller draws upon
the wisdom of respected writers and sages as well as upon
his own training in gerontology to offer a balanced and affirming
look at elder adulthood. His ten paradoxical principles of
healthy aging include, “As you learn to let go, you
will gain,” “Your time of decline is a time of
ascent,” and “In the fading light you can see
better than ever.” Photography from nature encourages
the viewer to look inward as well as outward. View Windows
