Grief Party
cohort 1
2026-2027
already two feet in?
CLAIM YOUR SPOT HERE
synchronous online space for becoming more real to yourself and bringing ingenuity to your beloveds in a practice of “being with” <3
10-week practice in grief, change, intimacy, embodiment, perception, and aliveness . . . Fun and Poetic Physicality :)
Enter a realm where we practice becoming more available to life through restoring forms of intelligence that have been separated, dismissed, pathologized, outsourced, or objectified.
This is a 10-week journey held by a symbolic, mythic arc as we traverse the path of self/other/us stewardship.
This space is for the already curious. Those that can handle mystery and are already inclined towards the potency of language to transform experience.
If the mystery is not sexy to you, don’t come to class.
This is not a space for those needing psychiatric observation, are clinging to old judgements, or fear dissolving constructs. This is an experimental, energetic, oracular space that presences bodies, natural elements, metaphors, ancestors, and relational skills that put us both into a position for receptivity and accountability.
This is not a place to trauma dump or be resolved of your pain or rid of your grief forever. This is not a place to practice entitlement or seek rigidity amidst uncertainty.
What is different about this space is that we are meeting what is typically known as heavy with a sense of wonderment. We are exploring the reawakening of presence, intelligence, and relational desire.
Participants will be invited into:
contemplative material
guided movement
sacred visualization
energy transmissions
journaling prompts
rituals and divination
relational invitations
improvisational wisdom
One moment we may be investigating the metaphor of decay and its relevance to change and the next we may attune to the whales and our other earth kin.
One moment we may be exploring our hands and tending body awareness and the next we may take a pause for intergenerational violence in the field.
There is a fluidity and a plumb line within the structure/consciousness of this space.
Meet NATALIE
i am a multi-medium creative that has centered vulnerability, sensitivity, grief, and celebration in my work with lived experience navigating the complex terrain of loss and fragility.
As an intuitive facilitator and improvisational artist, listening and presence are foundational to how I make and move through the world.
My life weaves disability and dignity and this course is an offering of the intimacy values and relational frames that have been significant on my path. Weaving wisdom, play, and belonging brings such depth and joy to the surface. I care for energetic sophistication, maturation, dignity, and sovereignty amidst interdependence.
This is a consciousness-oriented space. I am not a therapist and this is not a clinical space. We are sitting in awareness and relocating our personal agency within change. Importantly, we are exiting pathology in favor of poeticism, sensuality, and movement.
My work does not offer a promise to be untouched by life. If anything, it asks us to sit with how we are touched by life and how we participate in touch, in both subtle and physical ways.
I am an aquarius with a north node in pisces with a heavy 9th house, if that helps clarify :)
Importantly, this form of holding space is kindred to me. If i could be normal, would i? Plus, I have found this experience wants to honor intuition and fluidity and the nonlinear as a part of its intelligence and as an offering to the collective harm towards othered forms of knowledge.
How the live room works:
We gather twice each week. I come prepared with a symbolic framework.
Tuesdays are for information loading . . . teachings, conversation, ideas, inquiry, theme introduction.
Sundays are for movement resourcing . . . embodying the theme and tending the energy field.
Sessions will not be recorded or made available for self-study. the workbook sustains continuity between sessions.
Curiosity and genuine interest in self-reflection act as the foundation to interact with the material and our bodies.
Emergent exercises, rituals, and deep listening are part of the methodology.
Between sessions:
Participants will receive a workbook to accompany them along the journey as a place for self-reflection and to integrate the process.
Weekly invitations enrich the practice with contemplation and ritual.
Spontaneous invitations will be layered within the journey.
Ideal participant:
Instilled with tenderness, preciousness and a commitment to the flame of the heart .
Prepared to be in a state of reverence in the presence of vulnerability, potency, transformation, and paradigm-shifting poeticism.
Likes giggling :)
THE EIGHT mythic themes
REWILD
Returning to the body and listening to what is actually here - movement.
DECAY
Recognizing what is ending instead of endlessly preserving it - allowing.
PRECIOUS
Discovering what deserves your attention and care - savoring.
RECKONING
Learning how relationship changes what we can see, say and hold - touched.
VISION
Making room for possibility when the old map isn't enough - otherworldly.
ADORNMENT
Letting beauty, pleasure and aliveness belong here too - celebration.
COMMUNAL
Learning how to be held and how to hold others without rescue - shared.
LEADERSHIP
Choosing what you will tend, carry, create and leave behind - steward.
Note on Language & artistry.
I WANT YOU TO BECOME AN ARTIST OF YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE.
An artist in the way you look, listen, describe and relate to making meaning.
Soon you will hear yourself talking and your inner voice will say, “Oh, I really do know myself.”
And most importantly, your relationship with the impulses of your body will find their way into the everyday.

EXTRA INFORMATION:
There are special guests lined up for some of the resourcing Sundays that are trusted by Natalie.
The schedule is important, if a session needs to shift for unexpected reasons, participants will be informed.
This wisdom comes from a body living within a need for reponsiveness/fluidity - per health and nature. The desire to maintain container integrity is a deep value.

The Journey
Poeticism
awakening our language and metaphors beyond external authorities delivers us back to our bodies and disrupts power structures
Presence
presence is one of the most valuable energies we can offer ourselves and others, and is foundational to quality experience
Sensuality
savoring movement and sensing the simplicity in our mundane lives is the magic of nourishment and bodily intelligence
Relationships
tending to how we relate and invite intimacy into our lives directly influences our satisfaction and vibrancy, with ourselves and others
