WellSpring...resources for edge walking

Bringing grief and death out of the shadows
the art and craft of grief
There is some strange intimacy between grief and aliveness, some sacred exchange between what seems unbearable and what is most exquisitely alive.

Through the lens of spirit, the spiritual as the starting place in these conversations, sacred work, sacred practice, transition as sacred practice

through the lenses of medicine, through the lens of curing, through the lens of failure, through the lens of not normal, through the lens of shame, through the lens of not enough ness, through the lens of weakness, through the lens of fear, through the lens of fight/battle

normalizing: our culture has it wrong; restoring what is real, true and normal.  Not reimagining loss but restoring it
vulnerability as normal
life as cyclical is normal
