Death, loss and grief enter every life, and all of us will tread the difficult, meandering path of mourning. But when a relationship is complicated by unfinished business and broken dreams, the grief doesn't simply go away. In this experiential workshop, you'll learn basic mindfulness skills to balance absorption with past hurts and awareness of the present moment. Drawing from research findings and ancient wisdom literature, we'll explore how to help clients make practical acts of amends, redemption, and repair to heal feelings of guilt, outrage, or injustice. You'll leave the workshop with a clear understanding of complicated grief and a road map for helping clients transform a legacy of pain into redemptive and mutually rewarding relationships in the here and now.
