There’s no right way or wrong way to mourn.
Dear friend,
Welcoming you to this space with a tender heart. So sorry for your loss. May you have ease and peace.

Retreats can also be offered for your group privately.
courses for grief
Learning in group and structured setting
Learn and practice strategies for holding, being present to, and moving through, your grief. You will be introduced to mindfulness and compassion based techniques. The practices you will learn may be supportive during times of both coping with grief and adjusting to the new life situations.
The curriculum is specifically designed for those who are grieving. They are held with sensitivity to the needs of the bereaved. Program content is created with the foundations of bereavement research, wisdom of contemplative traditions and personal experiences in mind. Let’s honor ourselves, our loved ones, our grief, death and life.
Children’s Grief
Supporting Children’s Grief with Mindfulness
Children grieve, too. Perhaps they are sensitive and hold back on sharing with you because they don’t want to overburden you. This happens quite often. Whether your child’s grief is due to death of a loved one, their own illness, major life transitions, or you are wondering about how to parent while grieving, please reach out. We can have a one time consultation to understand your needs, provide immediate support, direction and referrals as needed, too. Depending on the age of your child, some mindfulness practices or techniques may be supportive for them, which we can also review together.
