20 Aug Celebrating Animal Spirit: The Loss of a Beloved Animal Companion Workshop Returns in October
Have you recently lost a beloved animal companion?
Or maybe it has been a while, but the heartbreak endures. Celebrating Animal Spirit workshops are designed to support and transform your pet loss bereavement journey and are facilitated by a licensed grief specialist.
Anyone who has experienced the loss of an animal companion understands just how heart-breaking this can be. These sage creatures emanate endless unconditional love, quietly teach us in ways we never could have imagined, and much of our thoughts and daily routine is linked to the intensely rewarding enjoyment of their company and to their care. All too often however, pet loss can be diminished, and is not acknowledged in the same way as other losses in society (known as disenfranchised grief).
Celebrating Animal Spirit is a counsellor-facilitated workshop designed to address the specific topic of animal companion (pet) loss, in a safe and supportive environment.
Workshop participants receive:
- Six hours of workshop time (in either a one -day workshop or three, 2-hour sessions) facilitated by a loss and grief specialist
- A safe setting with limited group sizes to normalize feelings and explore impacts relating to your loss
- Educational materials and resources to validate this specific kind of grief
- An introduction to expressive writing techniques to integrate into your healing journey
- The opportunity to experience a shift to a place where peace, ease, and joy CAN co-exist with – or even replace – sadness with your continuing bond with your beloved animal companion
- Unique and authentic methods to honour and celebrate the memory of your beloved animal companion
- One memorial/expressive writing submission to the online Akashic Writer’s Nook
The next CELEBRATING ANIMAL SPIRIT workshop will be held on:
Thursday October 12th
10am – 4pm (6 hours)
Online/ZOOM
Workshop Fee = $149 + GST
CELEBRATING ANIMAL SPIRIT is a pre-requisite for consideration for selection into a published anthology collection for pet loss: an upcoming co-creation between Akashic Counselling and animal communicator Michele Jarvis-Wonnacott
