DESCRIPTION

This is an in-person workshop located at CUNY School of Professional Studies, 119 W. 31st Street, New York, NY 10001.

This grief workshop will allow participants to dive deeper into their grief spots and recognize the various levels and the root causes of their grief. We will explore ways in which deep feelings of grief are often collective and intergenerational conversations and tap into our ancestral and body’s wisdom to move through wellness. Participants will be guided through a tracking process and will lean into the land to find out what may help to move into creating a relationship with grief.
