'Sitting with the Beast' Grief Retreat

‘Sitting with the Beast’ Grief Retreat

The world keeps turning after a bereavement. But do you just want to stop?

Often people feel rushed through their grief by well-meaning loved ones, employers, strangers, and society in general, often because people don't understand it, or it may feel too difficult to acknowledge or talk about. When we're bereaved, it can feel like everything is upside down and back to front, yet the world just carries on turning, and we can be left feeling lonely, confused, misunderstood, and in pain.

​
Sometimes we want to retreat from the expectations of how we 'should be', and just be 'in it'. Be in our grief. To feel it. To get to know the beast that is grief. We want to be nurtured, supported, our loss and grief acknowledged, and to be with others who 'get it'. This is why I created Grief Retreats.

It's ok to talk about grief and death at a Grief Retreat. No brave faces needed! You don't need to worry about whether you're burdening your loved ones. You can share your grief, stories, and memories of your special person. You are welcome if your loved one died many years ago, and you are welcome if you are recently bereaved too. There is no time limit on grief.

Feel supported, nurtured, and understood.

Take a moment out, whilst the world keeps spinning.

Join us for a day of exploration and reflection as we sit with the beast that is grief and find comfort in the embrace of nature, connection, and creativity. Nestled in the heart of a tranquil woodland, this retreat offers a sanctuary for those navigating the depths of grief. A unique indoor and outdoor retreat utilising a cosy study barn and the beautiful surrounding woodland.
