As we become more connected to the life within us and around us, and more lovingly supported by our community in that connection, we become more enlivened and capable in our creative responses to life and to what we envision is possible. Inspired by, and drawing on, the work of Francis Weller, Joanna Macy, Stephen Jenkinson and others, we will be creating a gentle ritual container for collective and individual grief to be welcomed, held, expressed and witnessed. We invite you to bring all the various feelings that are part of our grief – sorrow, anger, confusion, despair, numbness etc – so that, together, we can include them as part of our wholeness in common-unity, and allow space to meet the generative, and often unexpected, gifts that lie within them.
