SUMMARY:Missing Mom Workshop
DESCRIPTION:*Registration Required*\nBecause the missing can last long after Mom is gone.  \nLosing your mother can shift the landscape of your life. It can feel like losing a source of guidance\, comfort and understanding. For many\, grief brings a mix of emotions and questions that continue to unfold over time\, often in unexpected ways.  \nPilgrims Hospice Society’s Missing Mom Workshop offers a gentle\, supportive space for women\, including those who identify as women\, to explore that grief together.  \nThrough a blend of music\, art\, sound bath\, and mindfulness practices\, participants are invited to reflect\, express and connect. Together\, we’ll honour memories\, make space for emotions\, and nurture healing within a compassionate community.  \nWhat to Expect  \n\nGuided creative and reflective activities  \n\n\nOpportunities to connect with others sharing a similar experience  \n\n\nA calm\, welcoming environment grounded in care and understanding  \n\nLunch will be provided. \nThank you for your interest. This session is at capacity. We’ll be offering it again next year. To join our waitlist or for information on our other workshops\, please email GriefSupport@pilgrimshospice.com.
