How To Survive Grief - Free Audio Download for Anyone Grieving the Death of a Loved One
Online, March 27, 2011 (Newswire.com) - "Grief is the most painful emotion known to mankind," says Sandra Champlain, creator of the How To Survive Grief audio. "No one teaches us what grief is and then, all of a sudden it hits your life. There is no worse feeling I've ever experienced. My hope is to educate people about grief, have people understand it, be able to move through it as fast as possible and have relationships strengthen, as opposed to fall apart when someone dies."
Sandra got her first adult taste of grief in August 2008 when her grandmother died one week short of her 91st birthday. There were no words that could have done justice to the pain that Sandra felt. She remembers writing in her journal "Grief is a love-o-meter...the more pain felt during grief is in direct proportion to the amount we loved. Love is a good thing, without love there would be no grief."
Sixteen months later Sandra's father was hospitalized due to cancer damaging his spine. Instinctively, Sandra relocated to Florida to move in with her father and his girlfriend to "help out" in any way she could. During the months her father's health failed and he was in and out of the home, the hospital, nursing home and hospice. She witnessed strange emotions and behavior from herself, her father, her siblings and her father's girlfriend. Little did Sandra know she was about to uncover facts that would uncover the world of grief for millions of people across the globe.
Shortly before her father's death in May 2010, Sandra began documenting the actions and behaviors amongst herself and her family members. Fear, worry, anger, strange actions and miscommunications happened on a daily basis. Even on the day of her father's death, anger and fighting ran rampant with family members. Sandra would describe her family as "reasonably close" prior to her father's illness, and would never have believed how his death would have severed ties with her siblings.
Sandra soon learned that not only was she mourning the death of her father, but she was also mourning the loss of her siblings and their children, whom she was not allowed to see.
Grief can shut some people down, but the anger of the situation drove Sandra to research grief: what it is and what happens in the brain that causes so many problems, fighting, and miscommunications between people. Ten months after her father's death she found the answers.
March 8, 2011 Sandra released the FREE, sixty seven minute audio titled "How to Survive Grief" on the internet. In a matter of two weeks over 2,000 people were aware of it and have been responding to Sandra with amazing results. In fact, the message is so great that the many websites are now including the link to her download and website.

In addition, Sandra questions the conversation of "life after death" and gives information about current science trying to prove that our souls survive death. More information on grief and the question of life after death can be found at www.wedontdie.com
Sandra believes "How to Survive Grief" is something we should all listen to and that our children should be taught this information before they experience grief. The older we get the more grief we will feel.
Sandra states "Too often, when someone we love dies, a part of us dies as well. Very often we do not go on living our lives. I know of people who grieve 30 or 40 years. With this audio, people will understand grief, move through the grieving process as quickly as possible, and be able to get on with their lives, most often with new faith and inspiring new ideas.
A tangible version of "How to Survive Grief" will be made available in April 2011. The FREE version will remain available at www.survivegrief.com permanently. Sandra feels certain that all people need to freely have this information so their relationships and lives strengthen when a loved one dies, not have them crumble which we've all witnessed too many times.
