Virginia Beach, Va. – Tina Erwin, CDR USN, Ret., a lifelong student of metaphysics who served 20 years in the U.S. Navy, turned a family tragedy into the inspiration for The Lightworker’s Guide to Healing Grief, a comprehensive guidebook with insight into understanding grieving and tools to navigate the grieving process. She offers hope about the afterlife and the meaning of reincarnation as part of the Afterlife for All Life: Reconnecting with Beloved Family, Friends, and Pets conference, March 5-7, 2010 at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E.
