SUMMARY:Grief Walks
DESCRIPTION:FREE TO ATTEND\nThursdays in October 2025\n6PM – 7PM\nRiverdale Park East – meet at St. Matthew’s Clubhouse\n450 Broadview Ave\, Toronto\, ON M4K 2N1\nClosest transit stop: Broadview Ave at Langley Ave-Hennick Bridgepoint Hospital \nJoin Death Doula & Soul Companion\, Adrianna Prosser aka Lady Death Doula\, for an hour long walk with grief\n*in partnership with InTO the Ravines – a Park People and City of Toronto supported event\nAutumn is a season when we embrace death and dying as we watch the leaves turn and the weather change\, and Mother Nature shows us how to die with grace. Each week learn about metabolizing your grief and how sound\, movement\, community\, and storytelling can alleviate symptoms and build capacity for holding your grief. In the final week we will learn about legacy and build a pop-up community memorial together. Come to share your grief aloud\, or come to be quiet and listen to the trees and be with others who understand where you are at in your grief journey. \nOctober 2nd: Storytelling – You are invited to bring a picture of the person\, place\, pet\, or anything that you are grieving. As we walk let’s share who or what they were to us. \nOctober 9: Movement – You are invited to walk in silence\, walk’n’talk\, listen to your earphones… as we walk together holding space for us and allow the trees help us metabolize our grief through shinrin yoku or “forest bathing”. Special guest James Johnson of Reiki with James \nOctober 16: Sound – You are invited to share a song that reminds you of your person\, place\, pet or anything that you are grieving. If you bring a bluetooth capable device to share it with\, a speaker will be made available for us all to hear your song. \nOctober 23: Community – As we walk through our grief\, you are invited to share who or what you have lost and find others in our group to walk with. Walk together even if you walk in silence\, walk’n’talk\, or walk with the trees holding space for your grief. Community helps us reflect and integrate our grief so we do not feel so alone within it. \nOctober 30: Legacy – As we walk through our grief\, you are invited to share how your grief metabolizes into acts of mourning\, ritual\, or legacy projects – things you do now as an act of love for your person\, place\, pet\, or anything you are grieving now. We will create a communal pop-up memorial together. \nThis is a peer-led community walk in public space. Please dress appropriately for the weather\, bring water\, and participate at your own comfort and risk. \nLook for new Griefy Giveaways each week to the first ten people who attend: \nWeek 1: First 10 people will RECEIVE a paperback copy of Aly Bird’s “Grief Ally” an empowering guide gives you solid step-by-step advice on how to support the grief journey \nWeek 2 + 3: First 10 people will RECEIVE an enamel “I am Grieving” pin by Canadian creator Margaux Wosk \nWeek 4: First 10 people will RECEIVE a mini 2×3 frame to start their home memorial to remember their decedent.
