"Grief is not a disorder, a disease or a sign of weakness. It is an emotional, physical and spiritual necessity, the price you pay for love. The only cure for grief is to grieve." - Earl Grollman

Living with Loss: A Gathering for the Grieving is a small group experience where we explore how ritual, connection, and community help us through times of loss.

The size of the group and participants vary from month to month, but the consistent thread is how we honor each unique story and are present with whatever emotions arise.

Grief can come about from the loss of a loved one, the loss of a dream, the loss of a relationship, the loss of health, or the loss of a future one imagined. Whether your loss was recent or a long time ago, your experience is real and personal.

At Living with Loss, we recognize the universality of grief even as we seek to honor the uniqueness of each participant's loss.
