About the Event
NEXT - Living with Grief/Bereavement
Workshop, over 3 sessions
7.15pm - 8.30pm Tuesday 13th, 20th, 27th February
Location - Elysium Wellness Centre.
My mum passed over in February 2023, I have learned so much about myself and how to live with this experience and loss. My mindful practice played a great part, however I felt guided to learn more to bring support to myself and others. I completed an End-of-Life Doula foundation course which gave me a greater insight. Completing this course I have combined my mindfulness skills, knowledge and experience and designed a workshop on grief.
I decided to deliver this workshop in November last year and feedback was amazing with regards to attendees benefiting from others and the content, I've decided to schedule more dates.
My aim is to provide an understanding of how to be with grief, how it impacts and changes us, to move forward and begin to live life again with joy.
Grief is what happens to us in response to a loss. The loss of a loved one, expected or unexpected.
The loss of an unborn child
The potential loss of a loved one (terminal diagnosis, Alzheimer/dementia)
The loss of a close and meaningful relationship
The workshop is suitable, if you have experienced a loss, grief can still be affecting us after many years. Those who wish to understand grief better or if this is part of your work, or you are supporting others who have experienced loss.
Sessions will involve
Understanding Grief
Living with Grief
Holding the space for Grief
Learning coping mechanisms
All 3 sessions will need to be attended, to gain insight and benefit.
Purpose of these sessions
To provide support in a safe comfortable environment to talk about grief, if you want to.
To learn to be with grief, taking the fear away.
To grieve the loss and what we were attached to, ie the life we had, the change/impact of loss to our lives, the loss of a future
