COPING WITH LOSS

Friday 13 August to Sunday 15 August

Residential: £189, Non-residential: £126

Please arrive by 6pm on Friday. Course ends with afternoon tea on Sunday

This weekend is for everyone who is coping with a recent or a past loss of any kind. Bereavement is often associated with the loss of a partner, child or parent or significant other, but other losses such as loss of status, work or health also take their toll. All are forms of suffering that follow the general patterns of grief and bereavement, and that can benefit from this workshop.

The weekend offers the opportunity to share your unique experience with others in a mutually supportive group. It offers the chance to explore various ways of coping and of letting go and moving forward. It offers a place to meet others whose experiences, whilst different, may resonate and provide support and understanding.

Set in the lovely Ammerdown surroundings, and with good food and company, it will aim to provide a little solace in difficult times and to rekindle hope of better times.

The weekend will be led by Dr Penny Rowson, the author of the book Grappling with Grief (Karnac) which will be available to participants.

Please note that in exploring loss, the spiritual dimension will be explored along with the psychological and practical. Whilst people of all traditions are welcome on the course, Penny, a Roman Catholic, will lead the group in exploring loss within a Christian framework.

Dr. Penny Rawson is a renowned specialist in short term psychodynamic psychotherapy. She is a highly qualified and accredited psychotherapist, trainer and supervisor of many years experience, and is also a trained spiritual counsellor.

To maintain the impetus, participants will be offered a ‘follow on’ session on Saturday 25 September to Sunday 26 September. See Follow-On Session
