Translating our Grief
Cohort begins January 2025
Sessions on 2nd and 4th Tuesdays from 6-8pm ET
Sometimes tending our losses with words alone isn’t enough. Words have limits that other creative languages move beyond– languages of color, shape, form, movement, sound, and imagery, each employing a unique vocabulary of expression for our grief and pain. In Translating Our Grief, established care professionals* (spiritual companions, chaplains, social workers, etc) will learn to use varied creative languages for personal expression and how to offer practices to support their clients. Learners will be immersed in an experiential 4-month course, with a curriculum designed to invite fluency in varied materials of expression.
I am pleased to offer this course in collaboration with The Metta Center.
Four-month course will include:
Eight 2-hour live meetings on Zoom, with contemplative practices, group discussion, and hands-on creative learning
A one-on-one Zoom hour with facilitator within course timeline
Varied resources such as videos, creative prompts, books, and case studies
Certificate of completion from The Metta Center
