From Grief to Grace
with Inge

"Grief can be a garden of compassion.
If you keep your heart open through everything,
your pain can become the greatest ally in your life’s search for love and wisdom." - Rumi

Every living being will meet grief at some point in life. Whether it’s losing a loved one, a relationship, the role in life or your good health. Losing something or someone that is so close to our heart we experiencing the deep process of grief. How to cope with loss, death, old age is very personal and at the same time universal. We cannot avoid this.

Grief is not just an emotion of pain, loss and suffering, it’s an emotion that brings forth an opportunity of great insights, growth and wisdom. In the eyes of loss and death we often realize of precious life is, how much we can be grateful for. The experience of loss and Grief opens the door for light and grace.

In this workshop:

We will take time to explore the meaning of grief in our lives. How it affected/ affects us, how grief can change or view on life and how we can grow when we are able to move forward through our losses. When we understand the mechanisms of the emotion grief.
