In Grieving with Mary, author Mary K. Doyle provides readers with a number of suggestions for finding comfort and healing in devotion to the Mother of God. When traditional prayer forms are challenging due to fatigue, sadness, and stress, Ms. Doyle offers alternative ways in which one might take faith-filled steps toward recovery. Suggestions include: words written, spoken, or sung; Icons, paintings, statues and other forms of sacred art; sacramentals including medals, rosaries, and scapulars; movements such as assisting the poor, elderly, and hungry and walking a labyrinth; and constructing or visiting holy sites.
The book also includes an appendix with a list of Marian Feast days, words to Marian hymns and prayers, a glossary, and bibliography.
