In The Magic in the Tragic, grief counselor and mental health expert John Tsilimparis, MFT, helps you reframe loss, tragedy, and unexpected change in an authentic, radically new way---by drawing on history, the arts, music, nature, and practical therapy exercises---so you can walk forward into the future with hope and emotional resilience.
Discover a new way to think about your grief and loss. Esteemed psychotherapist and bereavement counselor John Tsilimparis, MFT, shows you the ways grief and loss intertwine with beauty, tenderness, and human connection to empower you to build emotional resilience in a difficult world.

What if you could flip the script on the pain in your life and learn how to cultivate purpose and joy—not after grief but during it, not despite hardship but because of it? What if you could find a type of magic in your tragedy? A way to understand your emotions and reframe your grief that opens you up rather than shuts you down?

Drawing on his own story, scientific and philosophical evidence, the soothing effects of the arts and nature, and three decades of experience as a psychotherapist and grief counselor, John Tsilimparis offers a new take on adversity in The Magic in the Tragic. In these uncertain times, you'll be equipped to:



Approach grief in an empowering way
Acquire the tools needed to develop emotional resiliency
Address fear and uncertainty head-on rather than avoid it
Embrace difficult times without sugarcoating them
Access the unseen beauty of your deepest emotions
Discover the healing power and belonging of music, art, and nature

 

The Magic in the Tragic powerfully explores how the hardest things in life intersect purpose and meaning, splendor and connectedness. When you embrace the magic in your tragic seasons, you can step into the future with hope, knowing that even when grief comes, it comes with an invitation to new life.
