To love and let go

Más información sobre el libro

Rachel beautifully illustrates that loving fiercely and grieving deeply are often two halves of the same whole. While on her way to teach a yoga retreat in March 2014, Rachel Brathen collapses at an airport, suffering from excruciating stomach pains. Rushed to a hospital in Bonaire, she undergoes surgery, only to awaken to her boyfriend’s tears. During her ordeal, her best friend Andrea has tragically died in a car accident. Their magical friendship, marked by their striking differences, led others to call them gemelas, or twins. In the years following Andrea’s death, Rachel appears to be in a happy phase of life—engaged and building a successful career—but she grapples with unresolved grief and childhood trauma. Each challenge forces her to confront a choice: succumb to grief or find a way to move through her loss. When she and her husband conceive a child, pregnancy becomes a healing journey and a chance for rebirth. As Rachel shares this transformative experience, she imparts her hard-won wisdom about life, love, motherhood, and the resilience required to navigate adversity while embracing the practice of loving deeply and letting go.
