Grief, Expoloration and a New Path to Joy
With
Michael Sudman
Music by Vibodha
Each of us experiences grief at certain points in our life. Grief is defined as “deep and poignant distress caused by loss."
Loss looks different for each of us. Missing a person or thing – a moment or period so profound, the grief changed your life and threw you into a new plan. In essence we have to learn a new way to live in the world. We need a new way to look at ourselves.
Asking, "Who did I come here to be? Where do I fit in the world as an individual in this new plan? When will the sadness stop?", Michael Sudman will tell his story of grief, exploration, and how his healing continues on his personal journey.
With the support of friends and family, an openness to learn “healing” tools, and the
guidance found in A Course of Miracles, he continues on a newly found path.
Transcending grief of a loss requires a personal realization, recognizing exactly who we are now, understanding we have the power to change our perspective in this moment, and searching for a feeling closer to joy.
After growing up in Hollywood, Michael and his family kept moving west. More than five years ago, Michael settled in to Puna, on Hawaiʻi Island, where he lives with his three cats on his farm, tending to tropical trees, plants and flowers. He is also the loving father of two adult children.
Raised in a reform Jewish family, Michael did not have a religious upbringing, although he always had a connection with a higher power.
Now, Michael’s connection to God grows each day, moment by moment. He has been a student of A Course in Miracles for many years.
He is also a practicing attorney, in family law and conflict resolution, with a focus on assisting families in child custody cases.
Michael is an explorer, student, and is always searching to grow spiritually.
