Making Space for Grief: What It Is & What to Do

Saturday, March 3010:30 AM—12:00 PMBrenner RoomRockport Public Library17 School Street, Rockport, MA, 01966

Grief can feel like a mysterious, ever-changing wave we aren’t always sure how to approach. In this workshop, you will get to know the landscape of grief, as well as explore creative ways to care for yourself and others.  Whether you are in a season of grief for a loved one of any species, holding other types of loss, or are curious to learn more, you are welcome to join us for this exploratory gathering with death doula, Bianca Staudt. Our time together will include conversation, mindfulness, and creative sharing.

If you’d like to bring small object that reminds you of your loved one, you are welcome to. This is optional.

Bianca Staudt (she/her) has a Master’s in Social Work and B.S. in Expressive Arts Therapy, as well as certifications as a death doula, memorial celebrant, and yoga instructor. She specializes in supporting individuals and communities of all ages in creating authentic, meaningful approaches to grief and end of life. Bianca’s focus is to harness the power of art, ritual, and community, no matter the setting - from hospitals to homes to the outdoors. In her free time, you will find her painting and block printing in collaboration with earthen elements. To learn more visit her website at: www.withinwildlight.com.

There will be a part one the Friday evening, March 29 at 5:30pm to start the conversation about death and dying. We hope you can attend both programs but they are separate events if you can only attend one.
