CHRISTMAS GATHERING 2024A DAY OF HOPE AND CONNECTION
Welcoming widows and surviving partners at any stage of their grief journey
Christmas can be extremely challenging
It can be an emotionally charged time for those of us who have lost a loved one. As people everywhere gather and celebrate with loved ones, the holiday cheer can feel overwhelming, as can the pressure to mask our pain. In fact, our grief can feel invisible.
My Christmas gathering will provide you with a safe space to connect and share with others on the same journey and nurture yourself through a difficult time of year. I hope that you will leave feeling replenished, ready to face the festive season and prepared to step into the new year with a renewed sense of optimism.
What can you expect from our Christmas Gathering?
For those of us who have lost a loved one, Christmas and New Year can trigger a lot of painful memories and emotions along with an overwhelming desire to just shut ourselves away from everything and everyone.
However, when people with shared experiences and needs come together something incredible happens. We feel seen, heard and understood. We discover a new sense of belonging and we leave with more love and hope in our hearts.
My Christmas gathering will give you the opportunity to surround yourself with people who get it.To connect and share with others who’ve been through or are going through exactly what you’re experiencing.
You’ll also be given the time and space to reflect on your own personal grief journey, release emotion and focus on your healing. You’ll learn how to reconnect to yourself, create a much deeper understanding of your needs and equip yourself with some helpful tools to make it through the festive season.
If you would like to come and join this very special in-person event, meet some truly wonderful people and leave feeling connected, nurtured and empowered, please click the link below.
Invest in yourself - you won’t regret it.
