A Peer-led gathering on Grief, Gratitude, & Belonging Grief is not a problem to be solved, but an experience to be witnessed. Grief, when shared, becomes a bridge that connects us rather than a burden that isolates us; and offers an opportunity for finding authentic healing. We will speak from personal experience, listen with curiosity, and honor different ways of responding to grief. We will ground ourselves, share what brings us to the space, as well as what we are taking with us as we leave. As our monthly gatherings evolve, participants and community members will be invited to share the particular gifts and skills they have to offer this collective experience of grief. This may include singing, movement, breath work, and other embodied practices. Participants are welcome to bring something to add to the altar that represents their experience of grief.

Guido Kury, MD will present a natural approach to help and healing through the teaching of Bruno Groening. Groening taught about a natural power, “the healing stream” that can help with life issues and bring peace, happiness and inner freedom. It is available to all people, irrespective of nationality, language, or faith. Dr Kury is a General Practitioner and specialist in rehabilitation and preventative medicine. He is a member of the Medical Scientific Group of the worldwide non-profit organization, the Bruno Groening Circle of Friends. The medical doctors and psychologists in this group document healings which occur in the Circle of Friends today as they did during Bruno Groening’s lifetime. Guests will be shown how to connect to the healing stream and healed persons will share their medically-documented testimonies. All lectures are free, donations are appreciated.
