SUMMARY:Good Grief
DESCRIPTION:Register!\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nGood Grief is a group exploration of our collective grief through the frameworks of Francis Weller’s Five Gates of Grief (The Wild Edge of Sorrow). Inspired by our EcoGathering on Grieving during the autumnal Composting series in 2024 and an increasing urgency to process the compounding loss we experience as the continuation of modernity relies on genocide\, ecocide\, omnicide and fascism’s impingement on our basic rights and liberties\, we will hold space to tend to the complex and often unaddressed grief that accompanies these losses and expand our emotional capacity for collective grieving as a skill for navigating uncertain futures. \nIn this Integration Session\, we will focus on working with the grief that was revealed in the last week’s Sharing Session as we opened up the fifth and final gate to address Ancestral Grief. Through guided discussion and ritual\, we will allow this newly unearthed grief to move into practice as we venture into a collective Apprenticeship with Sorrow. It’s highly recommended that you attend the companion Sharing Session offered the week prior\, for the sake of group continuity and comfortability\, as well as the opportunity to fully sit with the experience of witnessing and processing the grief at this gate. \n\n  \n  \n\nRecommended Resources: \nThe Wild Edge of Sorrow by Francis Weller\, Chapter 3 \nFor the fifth and final session of this series\, it’s highly recommended that you read the section of this chapter subtitled “The Fifth Gate: Ancestral Grief” (pages 63-69) \nThe Five Gates of Grief \nA brief summary of each of the five gates of grief \nSeeds\, Grief and Memory with Rowen White \nA beautiful conversation relating ancestral grief with seed keeping as a means of remaining connected to the cultures of our ancestors.  \nRoots Deeper Than Whiteness \nAn essay on the historical emergence of whiteness and how it coincides with the forced assimilation and inherent disconnection of European peoples and their distinct cultures and traditions.
