Testimonials For Idang Basa
It helped me understand that conflicted feelings are normal and that I’m not a bad person for having negative feelings toward someone I love when they hurt me. I also never recognized some of my habits are STERBS so the program has increased my awareness in this area.

This program has really helped me learn how to better express my emotions towards grief and loss and also how to move forward in healthier ways to cope with grief. I have also learned how to be there for others who express their own grief and loss with me. It is an excellent program that I would recommend to others.

I believe that this is a really great program to begin to identify the depth of my grief as well as how to say “good-bye” to the things that I was still holding onto. It has helped me to forgive a person for things that they’ve done, that hurt me in order to help me see them in a more sober mindset and improve our relationship.

I am surprised how completing this program has helped me to forgive and move on. The process really works and its true that the more you put in, the more you get out. I am very grateful to have gone through this healing process and not have that pain inside hurting me daily. I have learned how to forgive and let go.

So many wonderful tools learned but one that really stood out to me is when the authors say we shouldn’t inflict further pain in us by feeling regret. I learned to complete those feelings when my facilitator helped me replaced the word regret to apology instead. It was like a huge boulder lifted off my back. I suddenly felt free. This grief recovery program has healed my heart. Thank you John and Russell for writing this book. It is impacting and healing hearts of many!

This program has taken the painful weight of my loss off my shoulders! I have learned how to better express my feelings and face my grief head on in healthy ways. This space with my facilitator made me feel so safe to finally be able to process and talk about my losses. I will continue to use the tools I learned from the program for the rest of my life and I am grateful for my experience!

Where do I even begin. Words fail to suffice just how much the program's helped me. Right from the beginning, the book was able to correctly educate me on grief and grievers. I felt so much more empowered and equipped to not only tackle my own grief but be a better friend and a more sensitive observer to another griever. Working through my own grief was not easy but at the end of reading my letter I felt like it was, as cliche as it sounds, life changing. I feel different, lighter, softer, more vulnerable, less tightly wound. What an amazing experience and how freeing. I wish I knew about this sooner and did this sooner. I had thought it was going to be a taxing process but it really was not. I put it off for so long because I didn't want to deal with it head on, didn't want to get worse before it gets better since I already felt like I was at the end of my emotional rope. I truly regret not doing the program years ago. I would've been free so much earlier. Thank you.
