Certified Naturally Resilient Facilitator

Ecological Grief Circles

ONLINE COURSE

No prerequisite

Start Date Wed, Oct 29, 2025

When we are deeply connected to the world around us, our tender hearts can experience both joy and grief. Holding ecological grief in a circle of community we explore our path through pain to resilience with open hearts and active care.

This program is for anyone who is experiencing this type of grief in their own journey, and also for those - such as nature connection guides and facilitators who notice this experience in those they support.

We draw on the work of the many who guide this larger work such as Joanna Macey and The Work that Reconnects, as well as deep nature connection practices, Naturally Resilient’s own work and global traditions of peaceful activism.

We will gather through live video conference on 6 evenings

  • Wed, October 29th, from 5 to 8 pm PST (this first session is 3 hours)

  • Wed, Nov 05th, from 5 to 6:30pm PST
