Grief Companioning – Holding Space For Your Grieving Client
The need for someone to be fully present to the magnitude of one’s loss without trying to fix it or point out the silver lining is the main theme of this course. It is who we are being that has the greatest impact on the caring relationship. How do we as Massage Therapists and Bodyworkers hold space for our grieving clients? This course is designed to support and guide those who wish to companion the bereaved, while offering hands-on therapy.
This sacred space is a place where we can come together for learning in community, deepen our understanding of grief and the body, engage in group discussion, learn and practice deep breathing techniques, explore contemplative inquiry along with body-centered invitation and conclude with sacred ceremony. This will be an opportunity for the helping hearts of the world to remember their own wellbeing is a priority when serving others.

I had the privilege of attending Kathy's Grief Companion Class and may be one of the greatest blessings of my life. To understand the nature of grief and its role in our lives is something that is of vital importance. Our culture does not deal with grief very well. This may be an understatement.
Integrating the lessons of holding space for my clients in the way that Kathy teaches has helped improve my connection with my clients in a way that is ineffable. It has transformed the space that I hold and has been of great benefit for clients and myself.
The word I came away with from the class is simple as it is profound; purpose. I encourage everyone who feels the calling to this work to take this class. It is not only grief; it is the full spectrum of emotions that we deal with. Our emotional bodies are crying out for attention and Kathy's approach is that of an expert.
Thank you Kathy for sharing your passion and spreading your wisdom.

Kathy Ginn’s Grief Companioning Course is a Must Have for working with yourself,
your clients, your friends and your family who are in grief.
It is a comprehensive, intelligent, soulful framework on how to be with yourself and others when the body is grieving.
Kathy Ginn's demonstration of how to touch the heart and soul of the body, in her own professional environment, and our practice time to model those skills was priceless.
