5Rhythms Talleres
RETREAT: Rhythm, Ritual and Renewal: Moving with Grief, Healing through Loss
MAPA
DESCRIPCION
with Dr. Peter Selwyn, Jenny Fahy & Dr. Áine AventinWe are living in a time of great change, upheaval and grief. This workshop offers a place to pause and reflect on your own experiences of loss.
Using experiential education, guided grief-tending rituals as taught by Francis Weller, a 1:1 guided somatic process developed by Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, and 5Rhythms® movement practice, you will explore how grief lives in your body, work and relationships.
Together, we gather to share insight, restore presence, and reconnect with purpose. This is not training to fix or manage grief, but a space to witness it with honesty and care. You will leave with greater clarity, renewed grounding, and a deeper capacity to meet others in their pain without losing your own centre.
•Guided by experienced facilitators in a safe, supportive, and confidential space.
•A space to acknowledge and release emotional weight or unresolved experiences that limit presence and connection.
•Offers simple, effective tools for self-care and renewal to strengthen resilience in times of stress.
This workshop is open to all and is intended especially for those who have experienced loss, work with those experiencing grief and loss, or are carrying a grief that feels stuck or unresolved. This can include loss of loved ones, relationships, health, possibilities, or the way we thought our lives were supposed to be. The retreat will be beneficial for healing professionals and caregivers of any kind.
This is a WAVES level 5Rhythms workshop.
