Creative Grief Workshop

  • Inviting Abundance (at the offices of Nutritious Thoughts) 31 College Place Building B Suite 200 Asheville, NC 28801 (map)

We have designed this workshop for those who are looking for new perspectives and activities to assist with the healing process—for both those who are grieving and for those who support others in difficult times of loss. 

Educators and grieving parents, Will Daddario and Joanne Zerdy will co-facilitate this hands-on, hearts-on workshop. Through individual and small group activities that include grief mapping, embodied awareness movements, and reflective writing, you will have many opportunities to describe and process your current relationship to grief. We'll also provide ideas for continuing to do this creative work on your own.

We hope that you will leave our workshop with new ideas for thinking and feeling your way through loss and/or for helping others to process their experiences. And we hope that you will feel more connected to the community of active, compassionate grievers in the Asheville area.

From Past Workshop Attendees:

"After the recent loss of my mama, I found out about Inviting Abundance and their upcoming grief workshop. The timing was perfect. I felt safe, welcome and held from the moment I stepped into the space. Joanne and Will met me where I was in that moment and the variety of exercises and activities supported my grief process in such a beautiful and genuine way. I am very grateful for my time with Inviting Abundance and I look forward to more workshops in the future." -Clare, Fletcher, NC

"Joanne and Will are weaving their impressive backgrounds in the performing arts, education, and philosophy to offer nurturing workshops on healing from loss. Their love for each other, and their own journey as loving, grieving parents, lends grace to the important mental tools they offer, such as grief mapping. Where else can you find two PhDs whose hearts are open? I recommend their work wholeheartedly.” Sheridan, Black Mountain, NC
