“Attendees repeatedly commend the facilitators for their heart, sensitivity, expertise, and compassionate holding, which enables deep, transformative experiences. Whether online or in-person, participants describe feeling deeply supported, seen, heard, and connected, leading to profound personal releases, a sense of community, and renewed strength and aliveness. The ritualistic and trauma-informed approaches are frequently praised for their effectiveness in allowing individuals to engage with their grief authentically and profoundly, with many noting a desire to participate regularly and an appreciation for the "life-giving" and "healing" nature of the work.”

In these sessions we provide a space to be witnessed in our grief, and bear witness to the grief of others, and feel the depth of the support and union that often accompanies this shared expression. We do not set out to ‘fix’ our grief or its roots. Instead, we use recognised approaches to tend to and honour our grief exactly as it is, drawing on the practices, rituals and teachings of elders including Sophy Banks, Jeremy Thres, Sobonfu Somé, Malidoma Somé, Joanna Macy, Francis Weller, Martin Prechtel, and others. 

Facilitators: Bilal Nasim, Sarah Pletts, Tony Pletts, Aama Sade  and others.
