THE TAPESTRY
OF THE HEART

“Grief is the price we pay for attachment.”

-Antonio Sausys

 

Working through grief can be some of the hardest work one will ever do. It takes tremendous courage, patience and strength to bring mindfulness and compassion to our inner lives during this time. What we know, however, is that pain and suffering, not transformed is transmitted to other areas of our lives. As difficult as it may seem, facing our grief is one of the most generous acts of compassion we can offer to both ourselves and those around us.

 

Through yoga tools, we can invite our clients to take a deep seat of refuge in their bodies, acknowledge the threshold that has been crossed, and allow for the possibility that healing may begin or soften.  

 

We are not healing our clients from grief.  We are helping our clients normalize their grief.

 

Just like our Opening and Closing the Shop sequence, we can create a ritual for our clients to create space for grief as a natural response to loss.  The most important thing we can offer, however, is the act of deep listening.  Let the client lead the way.

 

“Our beloveds remain woven in the tapestry of our heart.” - Antonio Sausys
