Bridging the pragmatic and the Sacred towards healing and connection.

We are in challenging times ripe with anxiety and grief for personal and collective loss. Deepening our capacity to grieve is a learned skill that not only helps us honour what and who we love, but also deepens our resiliency and connection to self, others and to the wider web of relationships we are embedded in. Whether our grief is personal, collective, ecological, ancestral, or cultural, it is a form of intimacy that, if tended to with care and dignity, allows our heart to stay open and responsive towards creating resilient, sustainable and loving futures.

Education & Facilitation

I provide grief capacity-building workshops, training on trauma-informed support, group therapeutic process, somatic resiliency practices, ancestral healing and grief ritual gatherings to organizations, businesses and communities. I welcome collaborations and invitations locally and internationally to support your community; including online virtual events and offerings. Learn more...

Consultations

I am available for consultation sessions to individuals, teams, and communities who may be looking for guidance, feedback, or direction in their curriculum development and vision towards integrating grief literacy/support, ritual, or trauma-informed praxis into their programs, group process, or working culture. Please reach out to inquire at shaunajanz-at-gmail-dot-com, or through the email form below.

Sacred Grief Programs

I offer immersive online learning and mentorship programs for those who are called to deepen their skills in companioning themselves and others through grief and transition in ways that promote dignity and resilience. Combining therapeutic, ritual, ancestral, somatic and trauma-informed approaches within a community learning context, this is a deep dive into cultivating one's presence to be of service to personal and collective healing.  Learn more...

Whether mentoring individuals, providing consultation to teams, offering group training, or facilitating a community experience, I recognize people in their energetic and holistic selves - mental, emotional, physical, social, cultural, and spiritual - and as embedded in the wider field of the more-than-human world. I am in ongoing practice to embody and work from a place that understands my own historical and social location as a white queer cis-gendered woman of mainly colonial settler European ancestry. I acknowledge the ongoing impacts of colonialism, racism, sexism, ableism, earth disconnection, and other cultural wounds that work to erase the diversity and dignity of human and other-than-human experiences and expression. My work and offerings are trauma/somatics-informed and anchored in the resiliency of the human spirit, and in animist, anti-oppressive and decolonizing values.
