A renowned grief expert and neuroscientist shares groundbreaking discoveries about what happens in our brain when we grieve, providing a new paradigm for understanding love, loss, and learning.

In The Grieving Brain, neuroscientist and psychologist Mary-Frances O’Connor, PhD, gives us a fascinating new window into one of the hallmark experiences of being human. O’Connor has devoted decades to researching the effects of grief on the brain, and in this book, she makes cutting-edge neuroscience accessible through her contagious enthusiasm, and guides us through how we encode love and grief. With love, our neurons help us form attachments to others; but, with loss, our brain must come to terms with where our loved ones went, or how to imagine a future without them.

The Grieving Brain addresses:

  • Why it’s so hard to understand that a loved one has died and is gone forever
  • Why grief causes so many emotions—sadness, anger, blame, guilt, and yearning
  • Why grieving takes so long
  • The distinction between grief and prolonged grief
  • Why we ruminate so much after we lose a loved one
  • How we go about restoring a meaningful life while grieving
Based on O’Connor’s own trailblazing neuroimaging work, research in the field, and her real-life stories, The Grieving Brain combines storytelling, accessible science, and practical knowledge that will help us better understand what happens when we grieve and how to navigate loss with more ease and grace.

I wish I'd found this book early on after the death of my partner instead of having to wade through all the useless mush and twaddle that is sadly so prolific ( avoid anything that mentions the 5 stages of grief !). It put things very much in perspective and made my grief suddenly a lot easier to bear. Can't recommend it enough. I did speed it up as the readers voice was too dreary otherwise.

Highly recommended

Very useful information which I will use in counselling work. However the narration is rather irritating. It sounds like book has been read by a robot. If Siri read a book, that’s what it would sound like. I only put up with it because of the valuable information.

Useful information, but irritating narration

The understanding will help so many who are grieving. I loved the analogy at the end, and how grieving can be like learning.

So useful

After loosing my grandmother who brought me up and was a mother to me I have ready many books on grief however this book made a lot of practical sense and easy to understand. I would highly recommend for those who want to understand their grief much better. All the best and hope you all find strength

Great books and lots of new learning
