Anxiety is an under-acknowledged aspect of grief, yet it is present in every grief. Grief anxiety may take the form of generalized anxiety, panic attacks, agitation, hypochondria, obsessive-compulsive behavior, or PTSD. This workshop aims to provide each participant with a toolbox full of coping strategies to deal with these symptoms.Presented by Anne Kane PhDSoftening Unresolved Issues of Anger, Guilt, Regrets and ResentmentsThere are many complicated feelings and thoughts that we can experience on the arduous grief journey. Sometimes feelings are unfinished or unresolved in the relationship with the deceased; there may be things that were not said, struggles that were suffered, ‘what if’s’ that persist, ’why’s’ that echo in the mind or anger that is disabling. In this workshop you will learn processes and tools to help you move from debilitating feelings and intrusive thoughts to a gentler place of understanding and resolution.Presented by Bobbie Comforto LCSWUsing Imagery for Deep Healing and Connecting to Your Loved OneIn this experiential workshop, you will have the opportunity to experience a variety of tools that can help you go within and uncover resources you may not have known you have; to restore a sense of calm and strength, to open to your inner wisdom and intuition, and to foster meaningful connections with your Loved One beyond the Physical realm.Presented by Mary Beth White MS, RN, NC-BC, NP EMERITUSDeveloping an Inner Sanctuary for Healing Through Yoga, Breathwork, Mindful Awareness and Guided ImageryLearn and develop coping skills for aiding in managing grief.
