Harmony Circle Zoom Presentation 12th Oct
Kelly Townsend - Grief and Loss in the Time of Change
Tuesday 12th October at 1pm (see Zoom link below)
When we hear the word “grief” we often associate it with death. But grief is the normal and natural reaction to loss of ANY kind. Grief is a cocktail of emotions; the conflicting feelings caused by the end or change in a familiar pattern of behaviour.
So, even though NZ’s approach is one of elimination to avoid deaths, there are many other types of loss occurring. Loss of freedom, connection, loss of health from other causes, security, jobs, businesses, relationships, holidays, loss of trust, loss of personal expression to name just a few.
Join me to learn more about society’s relationship with grief, the unhealthy coping mechanisms we adopt to deal with it, and how to hold space for yourself and others who are experiencing loss.
FREE DRAW - I would like to gift a copy of the The Grief Recovery Handbook, and 20% off a Healing Through Loss and Transition weekend retreat I'm running in November in a FREE draw eligible to those who attend.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
