Nature Immersion at MEND

Labyrinth Walk & Grief Writing 

Embark on a journey through an outdoor labyrinth walk and grief writing session, where nature and introspection intertwine to facilitate healing. As you navigate the winding paths of the outdoor labyrinth, surrounded by the soothing sounds of rustling leaves and birdsong, allow the meditative process to guide you through stages of grief and reflection. The labyrinth, with its symbolic twists and turns, becomes a metaphor for the twists and turns of your emotional landscape.

Restorative Yoga at Center for Grief and Loss

Restorative Yoga for Grief Support

Loss impacts us in so many ways. We feel grief from loss in our body, our mind, and our heart. Yoga can aid in easing some of the symptoms of grief by helping unite body, breathe, and heart.

Please join us in-person at the Center for Grief & Loss for this workshop. We will share information about yoga including how and why it can help ease grief.

We will then apply this information with a gentle yoga practice, led by Dallas Rising, Certified Yoga Instructor.
