A 7-Week Online Closed Group for Mothers Navigating Collective Grief
This is the second round of a group container for mothers who are carrying the weight of grief in the face of ongoing genocides and global atrocities, and who long to alchemize this pain into intentional, life-affirming presence for the generations we are raising.
Together, we will create a circle of care where grief, rage, love, and prayer can be held, witnessed, and transmuted.
Group Details
7 weekly sessions
Fridays at 9:00-10:30 AM PST
Beginning September 12, 2025
Facilitated by Sarah Bitar: Lebanese mama, de-colonial holistic therapist, ceremonialist, and holder of a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy.
Guest facilitators will join us in some sessions to share practices, wisdom, and tools.
Why This Space
Mothers are tethered to the well of infinite love and to the very source of life.
To witness the violation of sacred life under oppressive systems is to feel heartbreak, fury, and helplessness that words can barely hold.
Since the beginning of time, mothers have turned to each other for connection, community, and ancestral wisdom as medicine in times of collective suffering. This group is an invitation to remember that we do not have to carry it all alone. With shared practices, movement, breath, prayer, and dialogue, we will journey together; closer to who we choose to be in this moment on earth, for our children and for our communities.
What to Expect
A closed container: We begin and end together, fostering safety, confidentiality, and deep trust.
Sessions will not be recorded to honor authenticity and privacy.
Practices to help us transmute grief and rage into grounded presence and creative action.
Space to show up as you are, whether raw and tender, or steady and ready.
Opportunities for heart-centered connection with fellow mothers on this path.
-
Feel called to give your pain, grief, and helplessness a place to land and be witnessed.
Know that joy and pleasure can coexist with grief, and that neither needs to erase the other.
Are curious about your own power of choice and transformation.
Recognize that much of our world’s suffering stems from:
~The imbalance between humanity and nature
~The imbalance among feminine, masculine, and non-binary energies
~Systems and structures built on domination and oppression
