Elisabeth Kübler-Ross - Five stages of Grief :
Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance

William J worden's Task-Based Theory (four tasks of mourning) :
1) accept the reality of the loss
2) work through the pain of grief
3) adjusting to an environment in which the deceased is missing
4) finding a new form of connection to the deceased and moving on with life.

Emotional impermanence

My reading of recent chapters are intriguing and thought provoking.

• Irvin Yalom's Existential Psychotherapy & 4 ultimate concerns
• Social Atrophy
• James Prochaska's 5 stages of TTM (Transtheoretical model of behavior change)
• Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy - People's drive is toward finding meaning in their lives.
• Romantic Transference
• Maternal Jealousy
• Erik Erikson's 8 stages of psychosocial development

simply superb.. lot of insights and learning about how therapy works
