Grief is non-linear, but the space we hold for it should feel sturdy and structured. To help your nervous system prepare for our four hours together, here is a somatic-centered map of how we will move through this journey.
We begin by lowering the volume of the outside world, inviting your nervous system to simply land without the pressure of forced performance or immediate vulnerability. Guided by soft instrumental music and drumbeats, you will find your seat on our floor cushions as we map out our shared boundaries, introduce our four intuitive card decks, and close the door on digital distractions with a dedicated tech firewall. Once completely offline, we will transition into a quiet somatic grounding to locate our physical gravity, connect to the floor beneath us, and settle into the heavy, honest truth of why we have gathered.
The heart of our circle is a slow, three-part somatic card inquiry designed to bypass intellectualizing and tap into your body's implicit wisdom. Rather than choosing cards with your mind, you will learn to track your physical responses to select your decks, process your reflections with physical pen and paper, and periodically clear the energy at our elemental altar using earth, water, sound, or sacred smoke. After holding these complex emotional layers, we will physically shake out the stagnation in our limbs and transition into an open reflection space held by a fierce boundary of non-interference—meaning absolutely no unsolicited advice or fixing—before releasing the collective weight with a resonant vocal drone and drumbeat.
We will devote our final moments to storing the medicine of the day and grounding. We will move through three to four gentle, deeply supported restorative yoga postures to help your muscle tissues integrate the emotional shifts, followed by a final offering at our communal altar. Before you head home, we share grounding nourishment—herbal tea, fruit, cheese, and crackers—to fully bring your awareness back into the physical room, ensuring you are alert, anchored, and safely in your body before you drive away.
Cost of Workshop Includes:4 oracle card decks you will get to keepItem(s) for cleansing your oracle decksSnacks & beveragesThis workshop is designed for those who are carrying losses that feel too heavy, too strange, too ancient, or too complicated for polite society.
If your body is whispering—or screaming—that it is time to find a softer, more honest space to lay your heavy things down, we would be honored to hold space for you.
