Beyond the Five Stages: Grief, Memory and the Healing Qualities of Time Travel

COURSE

Course description

This workshop explores a fresh approach to grief that moves beyond the familiar five stages.

Using the idea of time travel through memory, imagination, and embodied experience, we’ll explore how grief doesn’t always follow a straight line—and how continuing to connect with those we've lost can be deeply healing.

Inspired by narrative practices and the work of David Kessler on finding meaning, we’ll create space to re-engage with loved ones in ways that feel personal, authentic, and counter to the cultural pressure to move on.
