Upcoming events

  • Medicine of Grief - 3 month journey

    9 online circles + 2x 1:1 sessions

    Starting Tuesday 21st November 2023

    7pm - 9pm GMT

    This three-month offering takes the group on an experiential grief tending journey. Welcome to all, whether you are experiencing a deep bereavement, the loss of a relationship or turning towards other losses in your life. Inspired by the natural forces of Earth, Water, Fire and Air, the circle will encourage you to deepen your connection to nature, yourself and each other. 

  • Grief and the nervous system

    4x online circles

    Starting Monday 20th November 2023

    7pm - 9pm GMT

    The programme is led by Deborah Maddison, TRE and Breathwork teacher, and Nici Harrison, founder of The Grief Space. Together we will support you to understand your nervous system and the science of human safety (polyvagal theory). You will learn practices to help you grow your self-understanding and self-compassion, and support your nervous system to move through the grieving process more gracefully and return back to rest/digest and restore.

  • Motherless Daughters (sold out)

    5 online circles

    Starting Wednesday 15th November 2023

    6pm - 7.30pm GMT

    Join us in a deep yet gentle exploration of how to navigate the intense grief that ensues with losing a Mother. The loss of our Mother, particularly as her daughter can disorient our sense of safety and leave us feeling unanchored to the world as we knew it. Although it is a loss that can never be completely healed, it can be held in a loving, non-judgemental, compassionate space.

  • Christmas holding

    4 online circles

    20th, 23rd, 27th, 30th December

    7-8pm GMT

    Join us for four nourishing, gentle and supportive grief tending circles to hold you through the holiday season. These grief circles will be a place to quietly and courageously create space for our grief - both personal and collective. I will offer a cosy place to land with gentle embodiment practices, meditations and reflections on grief and love through poetry and music.

  • Introduction to Grief Tending

    One-hour online event (free)

    Once monthly

    3rd January 2024 | 7-8pm GMT

    This introduction to grief tending event is a soft landing into the world of grief work, while still offering you a rich taste of exploring grief in community and connection. These circles can be a deep and profound experience in themselves. They are also a good way to explore if a longer grief tending journey feels right for you.

  • Grief Alchemy

    5-day retreat

    Cornwall, UK

    June & September 2024

    Rest, release and soften into the welcoming arms of this Grief Alchemy retreat held in the healing lands of Erth Barton, sitting on its own peninsula just across the border into Cornwall. This profoundly life-shifting experience is centred around the exploration and integration of grief, in all its forms. Together we will explore how to cultivate a new relationship with grief, creating the space to feel it all and welcoming in transformation and alchemy.

Past events

  • A New Way to Grieve

    14 online circles - 11th April - 26th September

    Grief is a completely holistic experience, yet, it is so rarely considered this way. Together we will explore a new way to grieve, one that supports you to heal at all levels – mind, body, heart and spirit.

  • Gather

    12 online circles - 1 hour a week

    An online gathering where we come together for an hour a week to explore grief tending, prioritise slowing down and create space to feel. These circles have a strong sense of community. The format is much more fluid and formless than some of the other programmes. The group opens for booking at three points a year. The next group begins November 2023.
