It is too late to book a place for this particular session, sorry about that.Grief and loss are an inevitable part of each of our lives, yet how we experience this is incredibly individual. The role of culture and customs surrounding death and dying is central to our bereavement experience, yet customs and rituals that feel normal to your culture may seem very different to another.
Experiencing the death of someone important to you will typically create a sense of shock and confusion, and despite our varying cultures and beliefs, we recognise the role that rituals can play at this time. Rituals can offer guidance for processing and expressing grief, which may provide a sense of structure and order to bereaved people. The fulfilment of expected practices can provide a sense of stability and pride, and rituals may offer ease to those who are dying, whilst bringing comfort to those who preparing for their loss. But what are the different beliefs and practices? What about people who are at odds with their cultural norms? This online course seeks to answer these questions and help you better understand how to support healthy grieving in a way that observes other cultures and beliefs.
