Mindfulness for Grief - a talk with Jackie Hawken

The  raw and intense feelings - often catching us unawares at any time of  the day or night - that we are forced to live with when we suffer the  loss of a loved one (human or animal) can often seem unbearable. We  might feel the need to cling onto something to help us retain our  sanity, but what? This is where practising small bursts of Mindfulness  during those dark days can be of real benefit. This practical talk  interspersed with helpful exercises will help those living with grief -  present or anticipatory.

Jackie  is a Buddhist, Mindfulness teacher and psychological coach, author of  “Mindfulness for a Broken Heart: Self-Compassion for Negative Mind-States” who, 8 months ago, lost her life partner: Alfie the border collie.
