This book explores the many forms of loss that can happen in times of crisis. These losses can range from loss of business, financial security, routine, or structure, to the deeper losses of meaning, purpose or identity. The author draws on her background in transpersonal psychology, integrating spiritual insights and mindfulness practices to take the reader on a journey in which to help them navigate the stages of uncertainty that follow loss. The book provides several practical activities, guided visualization and meditations to cultivate greater resilience, courage and strength and also explores the potential to find greater meaning and purpose through times of crisis. The "Resilience Series" is the result of an intensive, collaborative effort of our authors in response to the 2020 coronavirus epidemic. Each volume offers expert advice for developing the practical, emotional and spiritual skills that you can master to become more resilient in a time of crisis.

I really like this book. It rings true, compassionate, kind, and insightful. I especially like her personal sharing – of her departure after six years in Shanghai to come home to London and then, suddenly, the coronavirus lockdown, and the lessons of transition, loss and grief she learned along the way; I like the story she tells about her Italian grandfather’s POW experience and how he and fellow prisoners transcended their physical limitations to find creativity and friendship, even with the guards; and her use of those powerful “big” dreams that come along to provide us with meaning and revelation in hard times. Inviting others into her transpersonal orientation, Jules sensitively teaches mindfulness meditation, gratitude practices, and ways to cultivate the resilient self for the tremendous growth possibilities available in times of crisis. Finally, she reminds us that we are not our stories or our beliefs, but so much more. This book for personal growth in a time of crisis, and well worth reading.

Loss is a big topic, and during the pandemic, it will surely touch us all - whether loss of a job or a regular routine, or the loss of a friend or family member to the virus. Even more, as our world up-ends, there is this sense of loss of the future...it might just be my regular summer vacation to the place where I restore my soul, a teen's loss of their high-school graduation, or a college student's loss of a year abroad - and I know people who are dealing with each one of these kinds of loss. By and large, we are not good at it. So, this is the book. We can't escape loss...but se can learn to navigate our emotions and make creative, life-affirming choices even in the midst of it. The soulful and authentic depths of the author makes her an ideal companion on this uneasy voyage.

I love this book. Similar to how Brene Brown reframes vulnerability as a necessary part of connection and intimacy, Jules De Vitto shows us how uncertainty and loss can actually lead to greater resilience, spiritual connection, and growth. I cannot think of a more timely book to be released during a global pandemic, as we all suffer a large collective transition. Because of this book, I now see how this "crisis" is actually an opportunity for something beautiful to emerge. I highly recommend this book!

Losing your business, your health, your safety, your connections to others, your hobbies and entertainment activities... your future. The pandemic has resulted in all that for so many people. I've been struggling with these issues, and processing them occasionally. This book helped me improve the way I process loss and cope with it in a more healthy manner. Build your resilience against loss in the pandemic by reading this book!

Jules De Vitto is a sure and gentle guide who helps us cope with the many types of losses we are facing now. After reading her beautifully written book, I feel comforted and strengthened with new coping skills. This is a book for our times—and any time.

I absolutely loved this guide to navigating loss in a time of crisis. 2020 is certainly a time of crisis for many and so the timing of publishing is of course divine - but I am sure I will come back to lots of the practices and insights included in this book through many difficult times in my life.

I'm not usually the biggest fan of written practices but the way Jules describes them in this book makes them so simple to comprehend and easy to do. I especially enjoyed the mindfulness practice and the activity of drawing from the angle of an emotion! Very innovative and I hadn't tried anything like that previously!

I will certainly continue to follow Jules and her incredible work in the transpersonal psychology & coaching fields! Overall - I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to work with difficult emotions in their life - business, personal, or spiritual!

In a world where everyone is uncertain and many are dealing with their own grief, it can be hard to find someone to be present with us in our experience of loss. Jules De Vitto makes readers feel not only that she is speaking to them, but that she is listening. Many will find these practices both helpful and hopeful.
Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2020
Jules DeVitto's, "Navigating Loss in a Time of Crisis" is an owner's manual for the soul. It provides a complete set of directions, exercises that, step-by-step, take us into ourselves. During a time when we have lost so much, this book reconnects us with who we are at our core. She draws on many sources for these exercises; yogic breath work, zen meditation, and Jungian psychology, to name a few. But this is not a showy academic treatise. The COVID-19 pandemic has so disrupted our lives and expectations; it has been heart breaking. Ms. DeVitto reminds us that when we are most broken, we are also most open to new possibilities. Her book is a practical guide that anyone can apply to hearten and strengthen themselves when they need it most. [Carlos Valdes-Dapena]

5.0 out of 5 stars Rich, passionate and authentic exploration into the liminal space that we are in.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 19, 2020
Resilience: Navigating Loss in a Time of Crisis is an excellent exploration, into both the nature of the current crisis that we are in, alongside ways of making sense and dealing with the uncertainty of the transitional space.

The book manages to balance grounded advice alongside deep spiritual insights, which has a nice flow to it. It contains rich and colourful explorative descriptions of what is currently taking place, using a good balance of stories, metaphors, reflective meditations and personal narratives that makes it feel very authentic and embodied by the author. There are also a variety of simple, direct and grounded exercises that invites the reader to be involved as an active participant in this explorative phase that we are in.

You get a sense that the author has been aware of, and has been likely writing about, the kind of liminal space that we are in, long before Covid 19 took place. This gives the writing a sense of confidence and maturity, which has been nicely adapted to the current crisis.
Regardless of one’s professional or spiritual background, there is a lot of great insight and practical wisdom from to gain from this piece.

I enjoyed reading this book as it most certainly comes from the place of the heart. It is written with the intention of being of purpose and value to the reader when the world seems to have gone through significant change with COVID-19. I found this self-help book contains valuable tips, powerful exercises, guided meditation scripts and offers a whole lot more to readers. Worth a read and worth keeping on your shelf!
