When & Where

Dec 17, 2025, 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM EST

Atlanta Grief House, 500 S Columbia Dr, Decatur, GA 30030, USA

What

As the light starts to disappear and the nights grow even longer, our grief can start to surface in unexpected ways. Whether you have experienced a new loss or find old wounds showing up, the plants are here to guide us through the dark. Developed commercially by Dr. Edward Bach in the early 20th century, but known to indigenous peoples for millennia, flower essences work on our subtle, emotional body as we look for ways to change behavior, old patterns, or deal with big emotions (and more).


This workshop will be experiential—we’ll sit with each flower essence, letting them soak into our bodies and see what resonates in our spirits. We’ll bring in myth, story, and traditional knowledge to expand our understanding of the flower essences. Each participant will be able to take an essence blend home as a friend for the dark season.
