Portland's monthly community grief ritual: July

Grief Tending at Hopewell House

Third Wednsdays of the month at Hopewell House, 6:30pm - 8:30pm.

Join our beautiful community as we explore our relationship with grief.

The losses of a lifetime are too much for us to carry alone and they were never meant to. It’s essential that we bring the heartaches we walk out from within us and let them be seen and held in our community as we heal.

Grieving in community supports our individual and collective capacity to feel deeply and to grow resilient. It helps us build trust within ourselves and each other, and helps us to move unhealed grief and unprocessed trauma. There is certain medicine that can only be accessed by being together in and with our grief. That’s what this grief ritual is all about.

Loss takes many forms and all forms ask to be seen and honored through the process of healing. Grieving in community serves all forms of loss whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a job, a dream, a life stage, an expectation, the loss experienced by our ancestors, the pain of the collective, the loss of our natural world, the loss of beloved animals, and so much more.

This grief circle is a space to come, to listen, and to share so we can heal through loss and connect in community.

This is a donation-based event and exchanges are deeply appreciated. If finances are not a viable form of exchange, testimonials, and trades are gratefully welcomed.

This circle is held at Hopewell House, 6171 SW Capitol Hwy, Portland, OR 97239. Please park and come on in the front door.
