Grief changes everything.
It changes how you move through the world, how you see yourself, how you connect with others, and how you carry the people and experiences you’ve lost. It can feel disorienting, lonely, exhausting, and impossible to explain to anyone who hasn’t lived it.
But grief is not something to “fix.”
It is something to learn to carry with intention.
After the unexpected loss of her significant other, alongside the challenges of supporting her daughters through their own struggles, author Karen Eichner began searching for a different way to navigate grief—not by trying to “move on,” but by learning how to move forward while still honoring love, memories, pain, and hope.
Grieving with InTENtion is not a clinical guide or a step-by-step formula for healing. It is a compassionate companion for anyone experiencing loss and trying to find their footing again.
Through honest reflection, practical exercises, journaling prompts, and gentle encouragement, this workbook helps readers explore ten essential areas of grief and growth, including:
- Understanding the reality of grief
- Releasing pressure, guilt, and expectations
- Reconnecting with yourself after loss
- Navigating relationships and loneliness
- Honoring memories while continuing to live fully
- Creating routines and stability during difficult seasons
- Caring for your mind and body through grief
- Finding moments of meaning, joy, and hope again
- Carrying grief while still building a life you love
- Learning how to move forward without leaving love behind
