Good Grief ~ Resting Our Sorrow
Offered by Denise Yocco
I was encouraged by a dear friend to start this up again. She may be joining me as a support and help…as it is her field…I hope so.
This is a circle setting event to commune around grief. Naming it “Good Grief” is not to dismiss the impact in and on our life, or to minimize the events in our life that have left us in grief. It is an attempt to make the time we spend in grief and in grieving, good. Good for us, and good for those we have lost. It is a deep honoring of the process of grieving and the relationships that end on the physical level when we lose those we love. I started this class and called it NOAH, for Nectar Of Awakened Hearts, after a beloved employee took his life. That was in December of 2016. I have had to do much work around the sorrow of that loss and others like that. I have lost parents, and siblings and a beloved husband. So grief has become a constant companion and friend. At some point we must make peace with it, or we miss what our life is here. I know I am not alone. I feel I have more to offer since 2017 , when I was deep in the loss of Noah.
I do know that there is bad grief, and I know that there are many who are suffering in it. I am hoping that through this circle there can be real and steady comfort found. This circle is for anyone who feels they would like to be managing their loss and grief in a more healthy way in mind, body and spirit.
In this circle event we will deep listen to all who attend. To allow for each persons story to be told. We will each be there as a support to each other. This will be the start of moving into, what I am calling “good grief”, as opposed to bad grief. There will be a variety of ways that will be used to allow us to identify what we feel, where we feel it, and how we want o proceed to feeling balance in our life, even though we grieve. I will share some thoughts that have helped me to appreciate the value of our grief, and the value of our life here that begs us to live with happiness in each breath. If you are looking for that sort of balance, I hope you find you way to being in this circle.
