Event Details

Join us on December 7th for "Grief And the Holiday: Surviving Grief and the Holidays," a workshop designed to help those struggling with loss during what can be a difficult season. This session will offer a safe space to explore how grief changes our experience of the holidays and provide practical tools for coping with the emotional challenges that arise. Through guided discussions, reflection, and shared experiences, we will delve into ways to honor your grief while also finding new ways to engage with the season. Whether you are newly grieving or have experienced loss in the past, this workshop will offer compassionate support and strategies to help you navigate the holidays with care and intention.

This event is facilitated by Jackie Hauer (Sacred Mournings), a member of International End-Of-Life Doula Association (INELDA) and holder of INELDA End of Life Doula Certification, and Jill Finn, a MS-Certified Grief Educator/Grief Specialist.
