The holiday season can be an especially challenging time for those navigating grief and loss. In the words of poet Danna Faulds, grief "rips off the doors of the heart," exposing raw emotions we often leave unexplored until we experience loss. Whether it's the passing of a loved one, the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, or even the departure of a child from home, grief can leave us feeling isolated, adrift, and detached from our sense of wholeness.
 

To offer support during this tender time, we invite you to join our upcoming session on November 3rd, from 2:00-3:15 PM, for a 75-minute mindfulness-based, trauma-informed gathering. This session will provide a safe, nurturing space to process your grief using the timeless practices of yoga and mindfulness meditation, complemented by the expertise of a licensed grief counselor. Our goal is to help you regain balance, resilience, and peace as you move through loss, while fostering community and connection in a compassionate environment.
 

The gathering includes:

 

Trauma Informed Grief Yoga Class:

Trauma informed, all levels, gentle grief yoga class tailored to address the physical and emotional toll of grief. You will be guided through nurturing postures and movements to alleviate tension, release emotional blockages, and cultivate self-compassion. This class offers a safe space for you to reconnect with your body and honor your grief.
 

Mindfulness Meditation:

Guided mindfulness meditation allowing you to be present with your feelings and develop resilience for managing your grief and loss. This meditation session offers a sanctuary where you can process your grief with clarity and compassion.
