Normalizing & Navigating Grief

Dr. Helen Hsu, Director of Outreach at CAPS, and Donnovan Somera Yisrael, Senior Health Educator, Mental Health & Well-Being, Well-Being at Stanford

The ability and openness to engage in the grieving process is an ancient practice that helped our ancestors survive even when the experience of death in families and communities was much more common. This ancient "app" on the "original operating system" sadly has been mostly forgotten in our modern "death-denying" culture. Join us as we "download" this ancient healing "app" in community. No two grief journeys are ever the same but there are basic foundational elements that many encounter. In this workshop, we hope to normalize the grieving process and help attendees have a sense of what to expect on their grief journey. Bring your experiences and your questions.
