Many of us are feeling overwhelmed these days by trying to keep up with our connections and communication. Yet, ironically, many of us feel the most isolated we have ever felt.⁠
😭⁠
❓How many people in our community TRULY know us and the depths of our heart?♥️ ⁠
⁠
🪨Underneath the busyness of our lives, there is SO much going on beneath the surface. Many of us are processing our own grief and collective wounds such as systemic racism, ancestral trauma and colonial trauma.💧⁠
⁠
🙁This is TOO much to bear alone.⁠
⁠
That’s why we do this work together, in community, to build resilience and increased our capacity up to be with the harder emotions.⁠
🌲🌲🌲⁠
⁠
Being witnessed in community is profoundly life-changing.🥲⁠
⁠
Through The Dark Woods is a live zoom support group where grief in all it’s forms is welcome.🤗 ⁠
⁠
🌲We offer 4-5 live zoom sessions every month. You can choose to join as many of them as you like, most choose 2-3. We also have a vibrant online community forum that is open 24/7 where you can connect, ask for support and receive compassionate witnessing.🌲⁠

Many of us are healing from the false narrative that healing work is meant to be done in isolation.💧💧💧We might have been told to show up only if we have a smile on our face and if we can bring ‘love and light’ to others. However, this way of thinking, which seems especially rampant in communities that call themselves ‘spiritual,’ has caused more harm than good.
🙁
If we withhold our deep feelings from others we are not only doing ourselves a disservice but them as well.🫶🏽♥️True intimacy and connection requires vulnerability and honesty.💔Yet many of us are so scared to be authentic these days. We fear that if we start getting radically honest, our lives will crumble.If we let a little support in, the dam will break, the floodgates open, and we will never be able to go back to life as we know it.😭Or, we feel like, we just don’t have time to get real with one another. The kids need to be picked up, the dinner cooked, the bills paid…etc. There is constant stress and demands these days.🥵‼️Capitalism relies on us NOT SLOWING DOWN. It’s how the whole machine keeps working.🔥So when you rebel, and do instead what your heart knows it needs, instead of what society is telling you you are ‘supposed’ to do, something miraculous happens -💚You actually gain resilience, health and the ability to show up for your life MORE, as you are. Your nervous system relaxes, and this gives you an energetic boost that is not possible by continuing to just ‘go through the motions’.Do YOU see grief work as an act of rebellion in an overwhelmed and stressed out society?Are you curious to learn the somatic skills that enable your nervous system to slow down and recieve support?If you’re curious to learn more about if this way of working with grief is for you, please join us at our next FREE meet and greet session TOMORROW! April 25th, 6-7pm PDT on zoom.*Please note that we are not able to offer therapeutic support during this session.*Comment DARK WOODS to receive the registration link to this free event.#darkwoodsofgrief #darkwoodsteam #vulnerability #heartwork #grievingtogether #slowingdown #somaticwisdom #nervoussystemsupport #griefsupport #griefquotes

We also have a vibrant, online community forum that is open 24/7 for witnessing and support.⁠
