Giving Reverence to Grief

Course Title
Giving Reverence to Grief

Course Info

A two-day Relational and Somatic grief workshop.

This is an experiential learning environment. Throughout the weekend we will tend to the grief that lives within you and within the community container. We will engage grief through ritual, embodiment, expression and relational connection, experientially understanding its own capacity for transformation.

In this workshop you will learn:

  • The various types of grief.

  • Why it’s important to honor what is lost.

  • How relational developmental trauma impacts grief.

  • Your own relationship to grief and how this shows up in the relationship with another’s grief.

  • How to be with a client’s grief the RSH way.

We will gather and learn through didactic work, conversation, experiential and mindful practices.

Jacki is trained in Relational Somatic Healing, Somatic Therapy from Hakomi, EMDR and Ketamine Assisted Therapy, from Polaris Insight Center and Sage Institute. Today her work focuses on the therapeutic relationship and embodied, relational touch to address developmental trauma & attachment ruptures, (which can manifest as anxieties, depression, isolation, relational issues and physical ailments).
