A nourishing day of guided practice, ritual, and sound healing with Alexis Slutzky.
During times of significant loss and uncertainty, tending to our grief together becomes a powerful act of healing and resilience. Join us for a compassionate and nourishing community grief ritual led by Alexis Slutzky—an extraordinary wilderness guide, intuitive facilitator, and trained therapist. Alexis has over a decade of experience gently guiding individuals and communities through grief and change with empathy, humor, and deep insight.
In this supportive gathering, we’ll use song and sound, poetry, journaling, storytelling, nature immersion, and meaningful rituals to explore our personal and collective grief, as well as what truly nourishes us. Together, we’ll cultivate balance and ease, learning how grief can open our hearts to greater compassion and wisdom.
This is the second of three daylong immersions with Alexis this fall. Although the content is similar, each session will deepen the practice and vary depending on what themes emerge from our group. Please feel welcome whether or not you have attended prior sessions.
Some important themes we will explore together:
- How do we remain steady and find balance during periods of significant personal and collective loss?
- How do we keep our hearts open and compassionate without becoming overwhelmed by grief?
- How can grief serve as a pathway toward deeper connection and understanding?
- How do we cultivate resilience and respond to life’s challenges with wisdom and love?
Our day includes walking and sitting meditations, reflective exercises, nurturing community circles, and restorative time on InsightLA’s peaceful property, with breaks for lunch and snacks.
Please bring anything that will help you feel nourished and comfortable throughout the day. We recommend packing a lunch, snacks, a water bottle, and a journal or notebook. The site has a refrigerator, microwave, and hot water for tea. We’ll spend some time outdoors, so comfortable shoes and a hat or sun protection may be helpful. You’re also welcome to bring anything else that supports you.
