The Gift of Sorrow

No one wants to feel sorrow. It is the emotion we most avoid, for it makes us vulnerable to the onslaughts of deep emotional and psychic shifts. We live in a world in which the social pressures and rigid schedules of life forbid our sorrow. Yet sorrow changes us, allows us into the closets where we have hidden the authentic Self. Our guest today is going to talk to us about sorrow and how we might facilitate a deeper soulful journey through sorrow.
