About this Event

The foundational intention of the Boulder Community Grief Circle is to co-create a place where we can come together as a community and cultivate the courage to live with hearts open to the full spectrum of feelings that grief invites. The circle is a place where we can welcome the complex interplay of divinity and humanity within us and all around us as we contend with the realities of life and death and offer our compassionate presence to one another.

Grief is a profound initiation into deeper intimacy with life itself. Grief is multidimensional—personal and transpersonal, conscious and unconscious, ours and not ours. Francis Weller teaches that it is not only the death of our loved ones that our hearts long to grieve, but also the grief of all that did not come to be, grief for the love that we did not receive, collective grief, ecological grief, as well as the unprocessed grief of our ancestors.

This circle was originally co-created in 2023 out of a need in the Boulder community for a more integrated dialogue about grief—a space where the myriad forms of grief could be honored and attended to with reverence, compassion, and care.

When we avoid death, we avoid life. This is a space to lean in together. To feel, to breathe, and to be held by a supportive community. We gather together to communally attend to our grief and, in doing so, make a sacred offering to the entire Web of Relations of which we are an integral part. All are welcome to join in these conversations. Come as you are, and open to the magic that can unfold when we honor the fullness of what it is to be human among beloved community.

These circles will take place on the third Thursday of the month in 2025. Together, we will honor the motions of grief, death, and sorrow as they make themselves known within our community and collectively attend to grief in its many forms.
