Art Your Grief classes are for grievers. Grief comes in many different forms - this class is for anyone experiencing grief - it might be a diagnosis, a death, a relationship, job loss, a dream, a home, etc. All grievers are welcome. No art experience is needed to take an Art Your Grief class. All you need is to bring yourself and be willing to show up and try painting, drawing and collage to process your grief. Explore and express your grief using art on Zoom in a safe space with other grievers. Emily will be walking you through different prompts with basic art supplies (watercolor, colored pencils, collage - nothing fancy) to help you connect with your grief while creating. The goal is not to create beautiful art (although sometimes this happens), the focus is on your grief and having a designated safe space to connect and express your grief using color, texture, and movement. Art is a powerful tool to express and explore grief. There is something beautiful that happens when we sit with it all - even if it’s extremely difficult to do. Next class series: Three options for month long classes that meet once a week on zoom: Sunday Class: June 5, 12, 26 - Sundays 3:30-4:45 pm PT / 5:30-6:45 pm CT / 6:30 - 7:45 pm ET on Zoom - 3 meetings (no mtg. on 6/19) $90.

July 25, 2020 from 9:30 - 11:30 AM (EST) Drumming is music for the soul, and is also a practice that may help us process our grief. Learning how to acknowledge, recognize—and even embrace—our grief allows us to start rebuilding our lives around our loss,” says Judy Coffin, program coordinator of ORA Lose & Living Program. Drumming is one approach that gathers us in, without the need to talk, or find words that are at times, so difficult to express. We can simply ‘be’ with the drum. Facilitator, Dr. Vivianne LaRivière, considers the drum an instrument of peace, and drumming as a spiritual and sacred practice. Drumming frees the minds, moves the body, is used at times in prayer and/or meditation and is symbolic of the universal heartbeat! She believes the energy of the drum can help us connect with our healing power, as it helps us get in touch with our emotions at a very deep level. Drumming our grief is a way of processing our grief by ourselves, and with others.
