3 layers of Romancing Grief.

You will receive practices and exercises for self-inquiry, active imagination, creative expression and rituals to support your process through the layers.

Layer 1

layer one

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
~ Maya Angelou

In Layer 1 of Romancing Grief, you will be guided to identify and express your areas of loss resulting in grief and heartache. Reflect on how the collapse of your world created the need to re-orient to an unknown life ahead of you. You will be witnessed and held in a safe and supportive community of women.

There are many circumstances and layers of heartbreak from the loss of:

Layer 2

layer two

“Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go."
~ Jamie Anderson

In Layer 2 of Romancing Grief, we will explore the mind, body, soul connection to understand and discover the effects of grief on your body.

Layer 3

winter program

“We are most alive at the threshold between loss and revelation.”
~ Francis Weller

In Layer 3 of Romancing Grief, we will arouse the love and begin tending to your grief; court the heart and soul and honor your intimate journey of transformation.

This is where alchemy begins. A master alchemist allows all feelings to be accepted and they become the elements for something new to emerge. You will learn how your life can become a living ritual.

There is a powerful life force living within Grief and Romance.

We are living in a time of heartache and loss, a collective grief permeates every cell in our bodies. Join me and explore the three layers of Romancing Grief, a Sacred, Seductive Adventure of Healing.

Deep sorrow and heartbreak shake us to our core.

A profound rupture exposes our bleeding heart, while grief brings us face to face with what is real and essential.

We are initiated as our soul cry washes away the superficial layers of image, identity, dreams and projections.

We are stripped naked, dismembered and stand in the rawness of pure experience.

Then Illuminated by the cauldron’s fire, the alchemy begins.

The dance between Grief and Love creates a new song.

Weaving a warm blanket to comfort our quaking and transformation.
