After loss, grief can feel overwhelming and isolating. This event, based on Alan Wolfelt, Ph.D.'s book Creating Your Grief Plan: The Power of Understanding and Befriending the Six Universal Needs of Mourning, shows you how active mourning — not passive waiting — leads to real healing. Discover the Six Universal Needs of Mourning and learn how expressing your thoughts and feelings through journaling, storytelling, and reflection can help restore hope and meaning to your life.

What You'll Get:

  • An introduction to the Six Universal Needs of Mourning
  • Practical tools for creating your own grief plan
  • Strategies to move from pain to purpose
  • A path toward living and loving fully again
