Grief Workshop

"BEING WITH SORROW"


ZOOM Online Grief Workshop with Christine Nachmann

"Life is a growth in the art of loss" - John O'Donahue

You are warmly invited to a 3-part online zoom course to reflect on loss, grief and the manifestations of sorrow in our lives. 

Grief is a natural part of every human life. However, in addition to our own individual losses, we are faced with the enormous pressures of a global pandemic, war in Europe, economic pressures, and ecological decline. It is, therefore, more important than ever to engage with loss and grief, to attend to our own holistic needs and to develop strategies to support ourselves in these demanding times.  


When, Where & Cost?


WHEN: 19, 20, 21 July
TIME: 18h30 - 20h30
WHERE: Online at ZOOM
COST: Pay what you can/donation


What this workshop offers


We will gather in a small group to pause and take time to be with what longs to be attended to in our hearts, bodies and minds. Time will be given for individual reflections through writing, sharing in small break-away groups and in group discussions.

The sessions are offered in a spirit of reflective inquiry and the group size is kept small to allow for individual sharing and mutual support.
