Learning to Tend Grief Fall 2026 Series (In-person)

We humbly invite you to join us for Learning to Tend Grief - a six session series offering education, micro-rituals and a tool kit to befriend your grief individually and in community. 

Because we have forgotten how to grieve together, our society is unwell. It is undeniable that grief finds us in a variety of ways, from the small ache we can’t shake to the intense sorrow that consumes us. And everything in between. 

We have lost our way in navigating the challenges that life inevitably brings us. So many of us were taught to go cry and grieve in our rooms alone, sending the message that our sorrow and grief should be shoved down and suppressed. That it should be tended to privately.

We are offering a different way - tools to reclaim and relearn being more fully human together.  

In Learning to Tend Grief, we practice being with what has been locked away - slowly and lovingly. We offer a well held container that includes education, community connection, a variety of ways to connect with your grief and a tool kit you can take with you to continue to tend your grief.  

This stirs the inquiry:

How do we tend to our grief? 

What does tending grief even mean or look like?

How is it helpful to me?

This 12-week container (meeting for 6 sessions within the 12 weeks) was intentionally designed for those who are unfamiliar with turning toward their own grief in more creative ways and/or in community. There are ancient, more connected ways to be with our grief than what we were taught. In this series we will gather to discuss and explore simple and gentle ways to be with our personal and collective grief.

In our culture it’s common to think this may not apply to you if you haven’t experienced a close death or had a major life transition (divorce, move, job loss, etc) but we will expand on honoring the places grief regularly arises . . .

• Grief related to relational dynamics (recent or past)

• Grief related to loss of loved ones

• Grief around climate collapse

• Grief around aging or declining health

• Disenfranchised grief - grief not openly acknowledged or validated

• Collective grief 

• Ancestral grief

If you’re noticing curiosity arise or a stirring inside that you recognize as resonance, we invite you to join us.

When we gather and share our unfiltered life stories, we start to create new ways to be in community. Often we realize how similar our stories are and recognize that we aren’t as alone in this world as we thought or felt. This is a place to see each other and be seen, to be heard and held in your truth.
