SUMMARY:Grief in Motion: Inviting Flow Through Breath
DESCRIPTION:A guided community circle where we turn toward our grief and use the power of breath to gently guide it into flow.\nHosted by the Denver Deathcare Collective. Where grief is tended and death is sacred. \nThese monthly grief circles at Sakala Community are a compassionate space to hold your sorrow in the embrace of community. \nIn this month’s circle\, Ashley Bradney of Healing & Dying is partnering with Erin Doty of ShatterStress to offer a somatic transformation of grief through breathwork. Together\, we’ll honor the grief that lives in our bodies\, invite in flow and release of emotional energy through breathwork\, and support integration through reiki & gentle touch. \nIn this way\, we transform our grief into mourning – guiding it to find its natural course through the body; restoring motion where stagnancy has resided; opening up the channels where love\, joy\, and reverence may return to us. \nWhat to Expect \nOur time together will include: \nGrounding to arrive fully in the body\nConnection & introduction to our practice\nGuided Holotropic Breathwork practice\nShared reflections and community support \nWho It’s For \nThis circle is for anyone moving through grief – from the loss of those we love\, through heartbreak\, identify shifts\, illness\, aging; collective & ancestral grief; to the places that have not known love. All are welcome here. \nWhat to bring \nWater\nA journal and pen\nAnything special you need to get cozy such as an eye mask or pillow (yoga mats\, blankets\, and bolsters are provided)\nOptional – an item that represents whom or what you are grieving to be placed on the community altar \nA Note on Accessibility. \nIf this price isn’t accessible for you\, please reach out to us directly at denverdeathcarecollective@gmail.com so we can accommodate. We don’t want cost to be a barrier to being supported through your grief. \nSakala is ADA accessible.

SUMMARY:Childfree By Choice & Grieving
DESCRIPTION:It’s not a given that everyone who is childfree by choice is 100%\, unabashedly content with the decision. While we may be set in our choice\, there can still be grief there. I know there is for me. It’s a both-and/two truths situation. Many of us make this choice for a lot of unfortunate\, depressing\, and/or systemic reasons\, and I created this space where we can be with our truths\, and hurts\, around it all. \nOur monthly peer-led Zoom group is intended to be a space for people who have chosen not to have children. It is not intended to be a child-loss support group or infertility support group\, although if you have prior experience with infertility and/or pregnancy loss and have since decided to not have children (meaning you are now childfree by choice) feel free to join and see if it’s a good fit.

SUMMARY:Monthly Wailing Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:This is a monthly offering\, happening on the second Tuesday of every month. This offering is designed to support somatically moving our shared and personal grief.\nWe begin to build our container through brief sharing and connecting and then move into movement\, vocalizing\, wailing\, praying\, and drumming. We are building community through acknowledging and exploring the shared human experience of grief and loss.

SUMMARY:"It's Complicated" Support Group
DESCRIPTION:A monthly peer-led Zoom group for people who had a strained relationship with someone who’s died. It can be tough to be in a group with other folks who were close with their parent\, sibling\, grandparent\, partner\, co-parent\, friend\, etc. As much as I like for there to be a range of experiences represented in grief groups\, so that we can hear diverse perspectives\, sometimes it is nice to be with people who “get it.” When addiction\, mental health challenges\, conflict\, estrangement\, abuse\, etc. were a part of the picture\, it can affect the grief journey in unique ways. This is a space for us.

SUMMARY:Holiday Grief Lounge - Evening
DESCRIPTION:The Holiday Grief Lounge is a quiet space to gather with other grievers so that we can prepare for\, take a break from or recover from whatever the Christmas season throws our way. You will be among a community of people who know what you’re going through and won’t expect you to mask your feelings or act cheery. While this space is intended to be a place to chill quietly\, if the mood should strike you there will be the opportunity to chat as well. There will also be prompts available for sharing during this time or for journaling. Feel free to pop in and out as you please and interact with the space in whatever way feels best for you. There will be two sessions – one in the morning\, one in the evening. You are welcome to attend one or both!

SUMMARY:You're going to this event Grief & The Holidays - Self Care Workshop and Sound Healing Experience
DESCRIPTION:The holidays can bring up all kinds of emotions — especially grief.\nIt’s not only the grief that follows the death of someone we love\, but also the quiet ache that comes with the loss of a pet\, the end of a relationship\, a career shift\, or a dream that has changed. This season can stir up memories and tenderness in ways that are hard to name. \nJoin us as we come together to pause\, breathe\, and care for ourselves in community. Grief Coach Wendy Kessler will guide a compassionate conversation on tending to grief during the holidays\, followed by a restorative sound healing journey with Brent Honnerlaw. \nTake this evening to slow down\, honor what’s stirring within you\, and remember that you’re not alone in your grief—or your healing. Coming together in community is a gentle way to remember that we are all grieving something\, each in our own way. Together\, we can find comfort in shared stories\, quiet reflection\, and the simple act of being present with one another. \nDoors open at 5:45\, please plan to arrive early.\nQuestions? hello@dodeathdifferent.com

SUMMARY:A Gathering for Friend-loss Grievers
DESCRIPTION:In this online gathering\, we will share stories and have a facilitated discussion about friend-loss grief. \nThe session will be hosted and facilitated by Hannah Rumsey\, the Founder and Director of Friends Missing Friends — a community dedicated to providing support and guidance for people grieving friends. \nFriend-loss grief is widely ignored and dismissed by our society. Harold Ivan Smith\, the author of Grieving the Death of a Friend\, said it best: “The distraught close friend of someone who dies has virtually no legitimate\, public grief and mourning channels.” \nBecause of that\, friend-loss grievers have very few avenues to openly talk about their grief. In this discussion\, we are free to talk about it: the depth of our sadness\, the fears\, the anxieties\, the doubts\, the jealousies. Everything we are normally too scared to say. \nLet’s honor our friends\, make connections\, and have meaningful conversation.

SUMMARY:Friends Missing Friends: A Gathering for Friend-Loss Grievers
DESCRIPTION:Are you grieving the death of a friend? Do you want to meet and gather with people who GET it? Friend-loss grief is isolating because it’s disenfranchised\, and there are very few resources available. We shouldn’t have to do this alone. Let’s honor our friends\, talk about our grief\, and find comfort in community.

SUMMARY:Grief Walks
DESCRIPTION:FREE TO ATTEND\nThursdays in October 2025\n6PM – 7PM\nRiverdale Park East – meet at St. Matthew’s Clubhouse\n450 Broadview Ave\, Toronto\, ON M4K 2N1\nClosest transit stop: Broadview Ave at Langley Ave-Hennick Bridgepoint Hospital \nJoin Death Doula & Soul Companion\, Adrianna Prosser aka Lady Death Doula\, for an hour long walk with grief\n*in partnership with InTO the Ravines – a Park People and City of Toronto supported event\nAutumn is a season when we embrace death and dying as we watch the leaves turn and the weather change\, and Mother Nature shows us how to die with grace. Each week learn about metabolizing your grief and how sound\, movement\, community\, and storytelling can alleviate symptoms and build capacity for holding your grief. In the final week we will learn about legacy and build a pop-up community memorial together. Come to share your grief aloud\, or come to be quiet and listen to the trees and be with others who understand where you are at in your grief journey. \nOctober 2nd: Storytelling – You are invited to bring a picture of the person\, place\, pet\, or anything that you are grieving. As we walk let’s share who or what they were to us. \nOctober 9: Movement – You are invited to walk in silence\, walk’n’talk\, listen to your earphones… as we walk together holding space for us and allow the trees help us metabolize our grief through shinrin yoku or “forest bathing”. Special guest James Johnson of Reiki with James \nOctober 16: Sound – You are invited to share a song that reminds you of your person\, place\, pet or anything that you are grieving. If you bring a bluetooth capable device to share it with\, a speaker will be made available for us all to hear your song. \nOctober 23: Community – As we walk through our grief\, you are invited to share who or what you have lost and find others in our group to walk with. Walk together even if you walk in silence\, walk’n’talk\, or walk with the trees holding space for your grief. Community helps us reflect and integrate our grief so we do not feel so alone within it. \nOctober 30: Legacy – As we walk through our grief\, you are invited to share how your grief metabolizes into acts of mourning\, ritual\, or legacy projects – things you do now as an act of love for your person\, place\, pet\, or anything you are grieving now. We will create a communal pop-up memorial together. \nThis is a peer-led community walk in public space. Please dress appropriately for the weather\, bring water\, and participate at your own comfort and risk. \nLook for new Griefy Giveaways each week to the first ten people who attend: \nWeek 1: First 10 people will RECEIVE a paperback copy of Aly Bird’s “Grief Ally” an empowering guide gives you solid step-by-step advice on how to support the grief journey \nWeek 2 + 3: First 10 people will RECEIVE an enamel “I am Grieving” pin by Canadian creator Margaux Wosk \nWeek 4: First 10 people will RECEIVE a mini 2×3 frame to start their home memorial to remember their decedent.

Many of us make this choice for a lot of unfortunate\, depressing\, and/or systemic reasons\, and I created this space where we can be with our truths\, and hurts\, around it all. \nOur monthly peer-led Zoom group is intended to be a space for people who have chosen not to have children. It is not intended to be a child-loss support group or infertility support group\, although if you have prior experience with infertility and/or pregnancy loss and have since decided to not have children (meaning you are now childfree by choice) feel free to join and see if it’s a good fit.

SUMMARY:"It's Complicated" Support Group
DESCRIPTION:A monthly peer-led Zoom group for people who had a strained relationship with someone who’s died. It can be tough to be in a group with other folks who were close with their parent\, sibling\, grandparent\, partner\, co-parent\, friend\, etc. As much as I like for there to be a range of experiences represented in grief groups\, so that we can hear diverse perspectives\, sometimes it is nice to be with people who “get it.” When addiction\, mental health challenges\, conflict\, estrangement\, abuse\, etc. were a part of the picture\, it can affect the grief journey in unique ways. This is a space for us.

SUMMARY:Grief & Tell
DESCRIPTION:Remember the days of Show & Tell in elementary school? That feeling of having the undivided attention of your classmates as you share something that mattered to you? \nWe want to bring that feeling back. \nSo often\, grievers feel like they don’t have the space to continue sharing about the person they’ve lost. It seems like the world has moved on\, and it can feel isolating. We want to be in community with you. \nHere’s how it works: \nThis event is virtual\, free\, and open to everyone. That being said\, you don’t have to share if you don’t want to. You are still welcome to be in community with us. \nIf you DO want to share\, you can sign up on the virtual sign in sheet to reserve your spot. \n((BUT PLEASE DON’T FORGET TO REGISTER )) \nWe invite you to bring something that reminds you of someone you’ve lost. It can be whatever you want. \nShow us what you brought! An object\, an item of clothing\, a poem\, a book- anything! As long as it’s something that brings you comfort\, we would be honored to see it. \nTell us about the significance of the item and the person it reminds you of. \nAt the conclusion of our time together\, we will close out with a gratitude ceremony\, a bit of a Prism tradition. \nWe can’t wait to see what you bring!
