Grief in Daily Life - Online Meetings
with Emery Mikel Mondays, 7-8pm (Ongoing Support Group - $45/meeting, 12 people max) Best for people experiencing a loss in the past 1-2 years. Start your week off in a supportive and creative environment with others while exploring your own experience of grief. We never completely recover from the loss of a loved one, but time makes it easier to carry with us. This group is for those learning how to exist with grief and continue living life on a daily basis. We will explore and share both verbally and creatively (meditation, art making, etc.), but no prior experience is necessary! Emery will guide you throughout the hour and you will come away with new insights, skills for living with grief, and the ability to breathe a little easier. Feel free to share this information or reach out to Emery with questions or interest. |
