Registration Deadline for Radical Acceptance Webinar

We often can say aloud that painful losses have occurred, i.e. “They died,” or “I lost my job,” but struggle to process the complicated emotions that come with a new reality. Many of us get stuck in thoughts like “This isn’t fair…it shouldn’t have happened.”

Radical Acceptance is both a concept and action that can help us heal and move forward in our hearts and bodies amidst great pain.

Come learn about this beautiful practice and experiment with various exercises to help you connect with radical acceptance of challenging losses you’re facing.
