Grief Literacy: Understanding Loss, Reclaiming LifeA four-part community workshop series
Grief is not a problem to be solved or a stage to get through. It's something we carry, and with the right understanding, it can become one of our greatest teachers. This series blends neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience to help you understand what grief actually is, why it affects your brain and body the way it does, and how to move through it with more compassion, clarity, and even joy.
Each session includes mindfulness practice, movement, real conversation, and tools you can use immediately. Come to one or come to all, each session stands on its own.
Week 1 — What We Get Wrong About Grief
Unpacking the myths (including the infamous 5 stages) and discovering what grief actually looks like.
Week 2 — Grief and the Brain
Why grief is so exhausting, what’s happening neurologically, and why your brain needs delight just as much as it needs to process.
Week 3 — Grief Is Everywhere
Grief isn’t only about death. Exploring the losses that don’t get named (divorce, illness, identity, relationships) and what they reveal about what we love most.
Week 4 — From Knowing to Tending
Grief in the body, somatic practices, an in-the-moment grief toolkit, and the big question: what does your grief make clear about the life you want to build?
Led by Morgan Motsinger: TEDx speaker, mindfulness teacher, psychology educator, and bereaved parent.
