Grief & The Nervous System
A FREE CLASS TUESDAY, July 5th at 11 am PT | 2 PM ET
✨ How do we tend to our grief so that it doesn’t solidify into syndromes, diagnoses and tumors?
✨ How can we notice when big emotions- anger, anxiety, tantrums, + sadness- from our kids and our friends are really a call to grief?
✨What do we do when the collective heaviness and grief is weighing us down?
Untended grief can become trauma, but it’s not an inevitability.
We need to cultivate ways to be together and move together, with and through grief.

During this class, we will attend to the questions of:
how grief relates to the autonomic nervous system, trauma work, + healing
what it means to bring children into the world in these times and how to relate to our children and each others’ children through grief
how to sit in grief, move with grief and build grief literacy
Grief & the Nervous System.
There’s no solving grief. There’s only experiencing it. The extremes and polarities that we are seeing around us are a direct result of an ability to be with grief. The proliferation of mental health diagnoses, autoimmune conditions, and syndromes is also connected to a “culture” with no grief practices. To sit in it and also to MOVE with it.
We don’t have to agree with one another to sit in grief together.
