Whitewater: The Positive Power of Grief DVD

I used to be a whitewater canoeist, was damn good at it, even got a couple of trophies. I'm not going to get this because I'll just be critiquing the whitewater references for their stupidity.

Showing diversity in age and ethnicity, this video uses the metaphor of the rough waters of a fast moving river to describe critical periods of grief.  This twelve minute excursion encourages the viewer to hold to the course and to flow with their emotions through the river as they learn navigation skills to ensure their safe journey through their grief into eventual calm waters.  During the free flowing experience where triumphs and losses rule the waves and where recovery is the true measure of success the viewer will learn how to fill the voids of grief.  Through new growth the image of self can be recreated, an image that is different than before but complete and whole as one taps into in to the natural resilient self that lies within each of us.

The following will be some pictures of me on the Dog River in Ontario. Someplace on here I dissected my carotid artery. This is where I had the best time of my life and it led me  to here(MI) where I'm having a hell of a lot of fun.
