This session was a sensitive insight into the human experience of grief and how writing can facilitate expressing the sometimes inexpressible feelings, thoughts, spiritual and emotional responses to grief. Contemporary society has limited ritual contexts for people to express and come to terms with shock and grief. The herb garden of writing and drawing expands regenerative opportunities with which to dignify these profound human experiences.
