Grief is part of the earth’s great cycles.

“There is some strange intimacy between grief and aliveness, some sacred exchange between what seems unbearable and what is most exquisitely alive. Through this, I have come to have a lasting faith in grief.” Francis Weller

Online Communal Grief Circle

  • As a trauma-informed facilitator Tobi has an extraordinary amount of grace, wisdom and gentleness. She is able to hold virtual space in a way that makes me feel absolutely seen. Her pacing is impeccable and her invitations to participate are extremely well thought out to allow trust and safety to be generated, naturally and powerfully. Her intelligent and unique use of the zoom platform makes for an experience that is both intimate and technologically advanced. I genuinely came away from my first session with her feeling hopeful that sessions like these can perhaps balance out the appropriation of virtual spaces by right-wing fear-fuelled people with agendas full of ego, hate and division. More please!

  • "It was difficult to stay soft in some moments, and the last breathing exercise was really difficult to keep going, but with your majestic guidance I managed to reach a kind of state of being that I haven't experienced for a while. I do not know how to put it in words very well - but it kind of looks like my body is in the inside of a cloud that merges and then slowly detaches from all the other clouds. »

  • « I felt a lot calmer afterwards and my body felt more expansive and not so tight. I learned a lot of vocabulary of all the different sensations that the body can feel, and the power in paying attention and naming what is happening in my body. I was positively surprised by how much I could write about my inner sensations after the breathing exercises. »
