In collaboration with The Centre for Grief & Healing, we are pleased to present the GriefTalks webinar;
Forgiving Yourself in the Midst of Grief, presented by Grace Duong 💜

On Monday June 8th from 7-8pm over Zoom!

After loss and death, grief can feel overwhelming. We may find ourselves caught in cycles of self-blame, guilt, or anger toward others. These responses are survival strategies, but remaining stuck in them can deepen suffering and isolation.

In this GriefTalk, Grace explores why these patterns arise and how self-compassion and forgiveness can help lighten the burden grief can carry.

All are welcome to join, whether you have experienced loss or simply want to learn more.

This is a free educational webinar held over Zoom.
