Mindfulness and the Grief Journey
Saturday at 10 am to 3 pm
Bayview High School, 5611 Bayview Road, Langley WA
$75
“Coming home to grief is sacred work, a powerful practice that contains what the indigenous soul knows and what the spiritual traditions teach: we are all connected to one another. Our fates are bound together in a mysterious but recognizable way. Grief registers the many ways this depth of kinship is assaulted daily. Grief work becomes a core element in our ability to sustain and maintain the well-being of our communities. It is a central means whereby our compassion is quickened and our mutual suffering acknowledged. It is also a form of soul protest, our wholehearted response to acts of violence and oppression.”
Francis Weller, The Wild Edge of Sorrow: Rituals of Renewal and the Sacred Work of Grief
The tendency in our culture is to move away from grief, to try to “get over it” or move on without giving full attention and presence to the feelings and experience of grief. Grief changes our lives, and ultimately — with awareness and soul tending — transforms us.
You are invited to spend the day journaling, wandering in nature, sharing feelings, and learning about grief and yourself. We will practice mindfulness tools that are particularly supportive for grief. You will have an opportunity to share your story and spend time in quiet reflection.
Fee: $75; 8—10 participants. A limited number will make this a more intimate and powerful experience.
