Grief Group is for everyone

Regardless of where you are on earth, you are welcome in this space. Grief Group is not limited by country, region, or timezone

Grief Group is a peer-to-peer support group upheld by the elements of psycho-education and mysticism, co-led by all of us who sit at its table.

A love-note from Grief Group attendee ~

“My relationship with grief now feels like an opening--a new relationship with a new friend who has been beside me all along. I'm just now asking what their name is and striking up a conversation. I'm learning about them--their history, who they are, and the nature of their existence. I'm discovering how they have shaped the person that I am, and how my lack of acknowledgement of them has slowly threatened to constrict the life out of me, because my validation of their sacred existence is vital. My inclusion of them sets us both free and gives life meaning. I'm excited to learn much more about my new friend, grief.”

Its purpose is to touch and explore the barriers we may face as individuals and communities when experiencing any type of loss, and to provide a container for what often feels uncontainable.

Like an aquarium for grief, here we may come into intimacy with the depths of its ocean side by side.

Our prayer is to mitigate the tidal waves we often find ourselves facing in grief, soften our resistance to them, and embrace the hand of our neighbor.

We stand the greatest chance at gaining the gifts of a heart broken-open when it is held in wonder and in community.
