This fall, we invite you to enter a group experience that honors grief not as an ending, but as a potent threshold into creativity and renewal.
Dr. Patrick Mansfield, acupuncturist and practitioner of Chinese medicine, will guide us through the wisdom of the fall season—the metal element in Chinese medicine, which teaches us that grief is both a necessary release and a clarifying teacher.
Kathryn Kupillas, LMFT, therapist and founder of Inner Vision Psychotherapy, will hold the thread with process groups and ritual, creating a circle where grief can be witnessed and carried together rather than alone.
We’ll also be joined by special guests:
Summer Wagner, artist and ritualist, who will bring a visual and ritual process to our opening and closing ceremonies.
Saewon Oh, herbalist and founder of Sun Song and SSEER, who will lead a flower essence meditation attuned to grief and creativity.
Callen Gordon, depth psychotherapist, who will guide a sound and breathwork journey to open the body up to release, renewal, and flow.
Although we all experience grief differently, it is not just an individual experience—it lives in the body, in our lineages, and in our communities. In gathering as a group, we create a field of shared strength and resonance where the act of witnessing one another becomes medicine. In this collective space, we allow grief to become fertile ground for new life and expression.
Together, we’ll honor grief as a doorway to creation—through ritual, community, and embodied practices that make space for both loss and possibility.
