Ep 33- Mary-Frances O'Connor, PhD, author of the book "The Grieving Brain"

Join our host, Herb Knoll, as he visits with Dr. Mary-Frances O’Connor, Ph.D., and author of the breakout book, The Grieving Brain – The Surprising Science of How We Learn from Love and Loss.

The Grieving Brain brings together accessible science and practical knowledge that provides an understanding of what happens when we grieve and how to navigate loss with more ease and grace.  Dr. O’Connor debunks Kubler-Ross’ enduring idea of the “Five Stages of Grief” and sets a new paradigm for understanding grief on a neurological level.  This understanding can lead to timely recoveries from sorrow initiated by loss.
