What we’re about

LIGHT (Love in Grief, Held Together) Movement is a grief-focused, somatic-based organization supporting individuals and communities through integrative healing. We bridge the science of the nervous system with accessible practices that help people move through grief and grow with it. Through education, embodiment, and community-building, LIGHT addresses the physiological, psychological, and soul/spirit impact of loss.

LIGHT’s signature programming includes workshops, classes, trainings, and retreats for grieving individuals and families, as well as educating wellness professionals who support this population.

Our Core Values

Belonging – Fostering inclusive, trauma-informed spaces for all types of grief.
Somatic Wisdom – Honoring the body’s innate intelligence in the healing process.
Growth – Encouraging transformation through compassionate, embodied practices.

Our Goals

Remind people they are not alone.
Teach the science of grief and somatic-based tools to support the mind-body integration, leading to meaning-making and purpose in grief.
Provide additional support and resources to help people in their grief.
Stand in solidarity with all people and all types of grief and loss.

No one is immune from grief. Our goal is to empower those in grief by providing resources and support, while moving through grief together with light and love.
