Navigating Grief: A Journey Through the Five Gates
presented by Rabbi Rick Kline
December 4, 2025
Grief is highly varied, deeply personal, and increasingly recognized in multiple forms beyond bereavement. Today, mental health professionals are paying closer attention to Prolonged Grief, Acute Grief, Anticipatory Grief, Disenfranchised Grief, and Collective Grief—each with profound effects on our emotional and social well-being.
Join us as we explore the Five Gates of Grief, a transformative framework developed by Francis Weller, psychotherapist and author. These gates help illuminate the many layers of sorrow we carry—from personal loss to ancestral wounds and the grief we feel for the world itself.
We will also engage in creative approaches to healing, including a guided Healing Meditation to support emotional integration and inner peace.
