Grief Tending
Through story, song, ritual and celebration
Chorleywood, Hertfordshire
Rebecca Chipping & Mike Robeson
Grief is a natural, human response to loss, but it is often carried quietly, without space, language, or support.
This afternoon workshop offers a gentle, guided environment where you are invited to slow down, turn toward what you are holding, and tend to your grief with care and compassion.
Together, we will create a supportive and confidential space to explore the many shapes grief can take, whether from bereavement, life transitions, unmet expectations, or the quiet accumulations of loss we carry over time.​
Through a blend of reflective practices, facilitated conversation, song and simple ritual, you will have the opportunity to express, witness, and honour your experience in your own way.
​
This is not about fixing or moving on. It is about allowing and making room for what is present, and discovering how grief, when tended, can soften, connect, and even transform.
​
Across cultures and generations, grief has been tended in community.
This gathering is an invitation to remember that way.
The afternoon will include:
-
Story and reflection
-
Song and vocal harmonies
-
Ritual to honour grief and welcome joy
-
Space to share what we carry in our hearts
There will be refreshments and snacks available during the break and a grounding, hearty vegetarian soup served after the workshop, all included in the price.
Cost £30
The workshop will be held in Chorleywood, Hertfordshire and you will receive the venue address on booking.
