Blue Hour—Haiku and Photographs - By Amory Hayden Tarr
​(Edited By Kathy Allen)

"Blue Hour—Haiku and Photographs by Amory Hayden Tarr is a tribute to my son Amory who died by suicide on April 24, 2020. It is a small collection of his haiku poems written by Amory while he was living in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The photographs are taken by Amory and are a mere representation of the photos he took while traveling around the world working on organic farms. He left home at age eighteen to work on an organic farm in the Northern Territory of Australia. The blue hour refers to the darker stages of twilight when the sun is quite far below the horizon and the sky turns deep blue. As you go through this book you will discover the magic that Amory captured in his words and images. May this remind us all of the beauty of nature as well as the beauty of Amory’s spirit."

​Hurt 2 Hope: Heal the Pain of Loss, Grief, and Adversity - By Betsy Guerra, PhD

​Hurt 2 Hope: Heal the Pain of Loss, Grief, and Adversity - By Betsy Guerra, PhD

I'm so proud of my beautiful friend Dr. Betsy Guerra at Better With Betsy on the publication of her
terrific new book, "Hurt 2 Hope: Heal the Pain of Loss, Grief, and Adversity." 


Whether you’ve lost a loved one, been through a divorce, encountered financial or health hardships,
or you’re enduring major change, you know grief. If you are hurting, feeling stuck, or looking for a
light at the end of the tunnel, this book is for you. 


After suddenly losing her 3 year old daughter in 2013, Dr. Betsy Guerra met excruciating pain and
hopelessness face-to-face. Her grief journey taught her lessons that superseded the knowledge afforded
by her doctorate degree and decades of clinical practice. Ultimately, Betsy found her way to joy,
while continuing to love and honor her daughter. 


Combining her background in clinical psychology with her personal experience and unwavering faith,
Betsy developed the most powerful approach to converting hurt into hope. If you want to learn more
about her amazing Hurt 2 Hope program, visit www.hurt2hope.com for more info.


Dr. Betsy's new book "Hurt 2 Hope" would be a terrific gift option for the grievers
in your life, which might include you.
