"Grief Is ..." a beautiful and gentle visual exploration of the very important issues of grief, mourning, and healing.

This twelve minute photomontage features dozens of images from Patrick Dean's years as an award-winning fine art photographer. Set to an original musical score by Eric Erickson created just for this video, peaceful pictures are overlaid with supportive text; an experience that has guided and supported countless people facing all types of loss and the people who seek to support family and friends as well. This is a gift that truly keeps on giving as viewers return to both the images, soundtrack, and messages as part of their ongoing healing process. You or your loved ones will feel supported with every viewing of this sensitive, hope-filled and healing companion through the difficult times of unasked-for change that "grief is ..."

This DVD is an excellent introduction to the journey through grief, no matter what loss a person is going through. This DVD makes a wonderful gift for someone you know who is experiencing grief, either recent or long ago. When words fail or you aren't sure what to do or say for someone experiencing loss, this visual journey is a wonderful way to really say "I'm thinking of you - and I'm with you in spirit."
