Bright Shadow creates spaces for community, healing, and reconnection for those grieving losses to and of the natural world.
Our offerings integrate shared story, somatic practice, outdoor play, and ceremony. We welcome all parts of self – light and shadow – exploring connection through collective grief and expanding our capacity for love, purpose, and awe.
Headwaters Retreat
A three day immersion into the expansive aspects of grief and loss, equally into joy and awe. This flagship offering is for folks who have lost a loved one to an outdoor pursuit and are ready to open to holistic healing. A blend of outdoor movement, somatic practices, shared story, optional individual counseling, ceremony, and community building in nature, join us for a breakthrough weekend.
Workshops
For anyone who has experienced loss to and of the natural world, 90 minute workshops blend experiential practices, tangible resources, and orienting information that ultimately supports our collective healing. These bite size offerings are a chance to learn about aspects of our mental health and wellbeing and to dip into the power of the collective.
Community
Bright Shadow is a co-created endeavor. We welcome and appreciate the diversity of human experiences to help us learn from one another and foster a community oriented approach to healing. We invite you to follow along through social media and blog posts, and also reach out to share your own insights, learnings, and gifts to this ever growing community.
