Grief is a sense of loss -- whether it's from losing a loved one, losing your health, losing your marriage, or about 40 other life experiences.
It is also a feeling that can last for a long time.
If you're having a hard time moving on from a loss, or know someone who's struggling to make their way back,
The Grief Recovery Handbook might be a good read for you or your friend.
Recently updated, this book is based on a proven grief program and describes specific things you can do to recover.
Tune in as author Russell Friedman joins Dr. Roizen to discuss the best ways to move beyond loss and find the happiness you deserve.
