DESCRIPTION:Loss and Grieving: How to Engage in a Healing Process\nA Suppor
 t Group and Exploration of the Power of Hope \n \nHave you ever noticed?
   The beauty of the changing seasons can somehow trigger in us a feeling 
 of loss\, even grief.  With fall and winter come the shorter daylight hou
 rs and longer nights. The holidays quickly approach\, and we become aware 
 of the little subtleties (or big holes in our heart) that are missing when
  we experience a loss. There is not one of us who is immune from the sadne
 ss that comes from losing someone dear or something dear to us: a friend\,
  a pet\, a home\, a job\, a relationship severed by death or divorce.\nGri
 ef has the power to shape our humanness. To be human is to know and experi
 ence grief. The color of our skin\, our sexual orientation\, our political
  affiliation\, or even how we present ourselves to others do not shield us
  from the suffering that comes when unresolved grief manifests. Each perso
 n’s grief experience is unique. No one can truly know exactly what you a
 re going through. The fact is that no one can make your grief go away. I
 t belongs to you alone. But this doesn’t mean you have to go through it 
 alone. Support from others dealing with loss can help you walk through som
 e of the common themes and coping strategies that have helped others along
  our way. Hope exists.\nBecause Grief has its own timeline\, we will explo
 re how we can move forward. To move forward with peace and hope is truly d
 ifferent than\, “moving on”. This 6-week course will support you as yo
 u traverse a pathway through your personal loss and grief. The primary res
 ources used in this course are Good Grief (Granger E. Westberg) Understand
 ing Your Grief (Alan D. Wolfelt\, Ph.D.) and\, Finding Meaning (David Kess
 ler).  You are not expected to purchase these materials. The course is fr
