Processing LossWorkshop
Loss is a natural part of every life. But, sometimes we get stuck in recovery because the heart doesn’t obey rules…doesn’t follow schedules. Whether it’s a loved one, a pet, your stock portfolio, or your health, loss can be depressing, lonely, and painful. This unique ZOOM workshop created by Ariele M. Huff, the author of the Processing Loss Workbook, is comfort in a time of need—company on the journey to healing. Join us for a life-changing afternoon.
FYI: This workshop does not require sharing anything you don’t want to share. Also, this is not a time when participants are given unrequested advice. The experience allows each person uninterrupted time to speak on several aspects of their loss. It’s a safe, nurturing, and accepting atmosphere for growth.
Also, this is a great “finishing” or “starting” place for processing old or new losses. Many people come thinking they’ve completed remedying their loss/es, only to be pleased to discover one or more important recognitions. Others come thinking they’ll never heal, only to have precious epiphanies that release them from pain, guilt, or anger. It’s a valuable way to spend four hours.
