Grief and mourning are often incorrectly considered synonymous. But grief is what we feel when confronted with loss. Mourning is how we process those feelings. Every traditional culture honors grief as a threshold, not an indefinite state.

Grief is an awakening portal. Mourning is the passageway through.

Except most of us have lost our traditional mourning rituals. As moderns, we are steeped in an anti-death culture that obscures grief. We lack ways to honor loss as a natural part of life; we lack processes for channeling the strong energies of grief. This leads us to become trapped in our own ongoing, agonizing thoughts and feelings.

Mourning is inherently embodied — energetically shifting and transmuting the energies of loss & sorrow into gratitude & grace. Mourning rituals are creative and collective and celebratory. They include wailing, song, dance, prayer, the elements, nature, community (and more wailing).

With attention and care, we can understand loss as a natural part of the cycle of the universe, we can revive our innate understanding of how we specifically need to mourn, and we can release grief -- allowing it to be the portal to wisdom & compassion — to awakening — it's always been known to be.

Over these 3 weeks, we will explore both current and traditional relationships to grief & mourning. Each of us will touch into the particular losses that we have not yet fully mourned. Participants will be invited to independently explore the mourning practices of their ancestry as well as others that might feel resonant. Finally, we will craft personal, unique, embodied, expressive mourning rituals to release our grief.

Come, let it all out!

What people say about my workshops/courses:

"I loved this course Sebene! It felt really soulful, aesthetically pleasing (both the music and slides), and full of brilliance."

"I have so much appreciation for the way that you craft and curate both your teaching and the resources that you share. The journal prompts got me to turn towards some parts of me that need more attention."

"Sebene, You are a bright light of love and inspiration! I loved: you showing up on the computer screen, moving to the music, giving us music to guide our practice; caring feedback to each and everyone; the notions page for easy access to resources; the repetition of the honorings and blessings; summary, recap of the essence of the teachings between lessons, to help connect the threads."

"I loved the spaciousness with which you hold space... I love how much YOU are in it. It's definitely not a pass through of generic teaching transmission. It is SO YOU and, at the same time, so expansively welcoming for everyone to show up as their own self."

"Sebene has a gift for creating space for exploration and acceptance, and I feel grateful to have been part of that space."

"This is one of the best one-day workshops I've ever attended. Sebene communicates so beautifully and simply."

"I would sign up for literally anything that Seb offers. This workshop helped crack through limiting assumptions about coupledom I didn't even know I had. I've been feeling more comfortable, happy, and empowered in my singleness ever since. Thank you, Seb!"
