About This Event
When we hear the word grief, we often associate it with death and bereavement. Yet grief can also arise from many other life experiences, including changes in health, relationships, identity, work, expectations, and significant life transitions. These often-overlooked losses can have a profound impact on our wellbeing. In this Lunch & Learn session, we will explore grief beyond death and examine how loss affects both the mind and body. We will discuss common emotional, cognitive, and physical responses to grief, and why understanding these responses can help us navigate change with greater compassion and resilience.
The session will also introduce the concept of Grief Movement, an embodied approach that recognises the connection between emotions, the nervous system, and the body. While this is not a movement practice session, attendees will gain insight into how body-based approaches can support emotional processing, healing, and wellbeing in everyday life.
Please note this event is exclusively for women.
