Grief: Loving, Living, Thriving - Workshop & Retreat

Hosted by Grief Circles, Center for Mindfulness, Compassion and Community for Grief

Grief: Loving, Living, Thriving - Workshop & Retreat
Grief is part of Living, Loving and offers us the possibility of Thriving. Turn towards grief with loving presence, hope and connection. Dip your toes in the healing ocean of your grief, in community.

In this workshop and mini-retreat, we will invite and honor our grief, visit inner wisdom and refuge, share and refresh our sense of connection. We will bring in heart-body-mind practices to support the grief process, rooted in Yasemin’s MCCG program.

We will hold these dear and elemental:

• Acknowledging that grief is a normal reaction to the losses we experience;

• Respect for our grief and being with it;

• Tapping into our inner resources to support us through grief.

We will practice techniques for:

• relaxation and calm,

• working with difficult emotions,

• cultivating present moment awareness.
