Five Week Book Club (All Losses)

After the sudden death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg felt certain that she and her children would never feel pure joy again. “I was in the void,” she writes, “a vast emptiness that fills your heart and lungs and restricts your ability to think or even breathe.”  Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences.  We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience.  It is a muscle that everyone can build.  Option B combines Sheryl’s personal insights with Adam’s eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity.  Even after the most devastating events, it is possible to grow by finding deeper meaning and gaining greater appreciation in our lives.  The book Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy by Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant will be required for this group and can be purchased online. All meetings are online with video conferencing with options for video or just phone (audio) instructions.  Instructions and on line link will be shared by facilitator upon registering for the groups/workshops. Open attendance but one time registration needed. Contact group facilitator Robin Murphy, BS, CT for registration. Email: rmurphy1@delawarehospice.org   Phone: (302) 678-4444
