Understanding Grief: Navigating the Many Faces of Loss
Join Jen Venegas, grief worker and founder of Abeja Rise, for an insightful workshop delving into the intricate tapestry of grief. Grief comes in many forms—loss of loved ones, end of relationships, career transitions, health challenges, and societal shifts. In this session, we will explore the diverse manifestations of grief, offering tools and strategies to navigate these emotional landscapes with compassion and resilience.
Through interactive discussions and reflective exercises, participants will deepen their understanding of grief's impact on individuals and communities. Whether you're seeking personal healing or professional insight, this workshop aims to foster empathy, provide practical coping mechanisms, and empower you to support others through their grief journeys.
Key Takeaways:
- Identify different types of grief
- Develop strategies for coping and resilience
- Cultivate empathy and understanding in personal and professional contexts
