Room for Grief: A Monthly Space for Loss From Bereavement

“Each person’s grief is as unique as their fingerprint. But what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed.”

-David Kessler

If you’ve lost a loved one, a healing circle for those in grief is an opportunity to share what’s on your heart and mind, to listen, and be listened to deeply and generously.

Our healing circles are a safe and supportive space to walk with each other through these times.  Each circle is a blend of sharing and silence, compassion and curiosity. Our agreements ensure acceptance and confidentiality. We honor our own unique paths to healing and respect the choices of others.

This is an ongoing circle. Therefore, you are welcome to join at any time.

Please note: Healing circles are groups of peers who support one another through deep listening and compassion. Circle participants abide by agreements, including agreements around confidentiality. The volunteers who host healing circles do not provide medical or psychotherapeutic advice or treatment. Participation in a healing circle does not replace the care provided by a qualified healthcare professional.

This circle meets on the third Monday of the month from 12:00 – 1:30pm ET/9:00 – 10:30am PST/11:00am – 12:30pm CST/5:00-6:30pm UK


Healing circles are offered at no charge. If you’re able, Healing Circles Global invites you to <make a gift> to help cover the cost of participating.

Suggested Donation for one circle: $12 covers the cost of your participation in one circle

About Healing Circles Global

Healing Circles Global is a nonprofit whose vision is to provide positive social support to anyone who asks for it. This takes place in small circles built on a framework that brings out the best in people. It encourages participants to treat one another with kindness and respect, hold one another’s stories in confidence, withhold judgment, and honor one another’s unique path to healing without advising, fixing, or rescuing.

Circle participants work together to explore the best ways to remove obstacles to healing, alleviate suffering, and deepen their capacity to heal. They also access their own inner guidance to determine where the greatest healing—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual—can occur.


About David Brown

David’s wife was diagnosed with a life threatening illness. David experienced what he found out later to be deep anticipatory grief. He attended Francis Weller workshops and the Healing Circle Global Living with Loss circle to understand the grief he was experiencing. He found expressing his grief in community was tremendously healing. After his wife’s successful surgery, David trained to be a host for Healing Circles Global and hosted Losing a Loved One circles during the summer of 2021. In the fall of 2021, David started an aging circle for Healing Circles Global that is still active today. In addition to hosting healing circles, David has facilitated meditation groups and is a hospice volunteer.

About Yann Leu

Yann Joined a Healing Circle Global circle during a life-threatening illness. She was deeply touched by the healing power brought by deep listening and speaking from the heart offered in the safe space of the circle. After returning to health, she took training for hosting from Healing Circle Global and started hosting in the fall of 2021 the Living with Cancer Circle and the Aging Together Circle. Yann is a long-term meditator. She has served as a hospice volunteer and a volunteer crisis hotline counselor.
