Healing Through Nature and Community

We offer nature and ocean based spaces for individuals and communities to process, share and move with waves of grief—together.

Rooted in somatic and eco-therapeutic practices, our programs support reconnection to self, to others, and to nature.

We believe healing happens in community—not in isolation—and that grief, like the ocean, moves in waves. Through ritual, movement, and shared story, our circles honor the continuing bonds we carry and create space for embodied healing and meaning-making after loss.

Global Second Sunday Waves of Grief Community Circles

Join us on the second Sunday of each month as we navigate the waves of grief and loss. Together we build community, normalize grief, and find community in and around the ocean.  

 All grief and grievers and all ocean experiences are welcome.

“In community we can continue to find meaning in order to keep leaning into the world after loss, to keep moving waves of grief through the psyches of our bodies and to integrate it.”
