Flourish Death Cafe
Join us as gather to discuss all things death and dying with other curious people.
This is not a group therapy session, but a time for gentle questioning and discussing of a bridge that we will all eventually cross. This is a safe and held container where all are welcome. Refreshments will be provided.
Space is limited to 20 participants and registration is required in order to attend.
FAQs:
Who is this for?
Anyone that would like to talk about death and dying and our cultural norms, traditions, and understandings of it. This is a friendly welcoming space to all.
Do I have to have known someone that died or is dying in order to attend?
No. This space is open to all, regardless of whatever your own personal experience of death may be.
How much does it cost?
There is a suggested donation of $25 to help us support the facilitators, the space at Flourish Foundation, and perhaps most importantly, purchase snacks.
While many of Flourish’s programs are offered freely to participants thanks to generous donors, some offerings use a tiered-based price model. Our aspiration is to ensure that all who wish to participate are able to and that we can continue to run a vital, sustainable organization to serve this community for a long time!
Please reflect on both the value you will personally receive from this experience and your current financial reality to support how much you decide to give.
Price Range: $0-$50
Community Sing
A space to gather and sing. All voices are welcome.
The first and third Thursday of every month.
Five Gates Grief Vigil
This Five Gates Grief Vigil is based on the work of Francis Weller from his teachings in “The Wild Edge of Sorrow”. This is a time where we invite our grief into the room, to be witnessed, held in the container of community, and then released.
In our culture, we are grief phobic, and often we ask that those suffering do so in silence and in solitude. Sometimes we even impose that on ourselves. Choosing to hold our grief solid, frozen, and alone, rather than risk making others uncomfortable with our sadness.
There are the obvious griefs; the loss of a loved one, the ending of a relationship, an unexpected illness or diagnosis. But there are so many other griefs about which we do not speak or acknowledge in any way. The loss of species, the desecration of the natural world, genocide, war, the harm carried through the generations of our family, the times that we were unloved or unsupported by our parents or caregivers. We carry these griefs without acknowledging them and they become heavy, cold, congested, frozen.
In this vigil, we begin the slow and gentle process of warming our grief, so that it may move. Not in an effort to eradicate it or somehow banish it. But to come into right relationship with it. Perhaps, to even recognize that it is there at all.
We invite you to join us in this radical act of self care and community.
Space is limited to 20 participants. Registration is required to reserve a spot.
Please reach out directly to Becquel Smith with any questions.
Future Grief Vigil Dates - To be posted to the Flourish site for registration post an upcoming website overhaul in October.

Art of Dying
With an open heart and curious mind, join us in exploring death, that unavoidable end-of-life transition that we will all face. Imagine moving beyond a view of death as something that happens to you.
Digging deep we will open to new ways to experience this inevitable change through discussions, journaling, art, film, movement and sharing. In community there is an opportunity for profound healing. Letting go of fear around death is all a part of healthy living.
Facilitators are Kate Riley, Certified Death Doula, and Ryan Redman, Executive Director of the Flourish Foundation.

Community Meditation
Join us for a quiet hour of nourishment and connection at Flourish. Each evening begins with a brief wisdom reading followed by a simple, welcoming space to settle the body, steady the mind, and cultivate the innate well-being that emerges when we practice together. Through guided meditation and shared silence, we’ll explore the benefits of tending gently to our hearts and minds and create a field of compassion, clarity, and peace in community.
All are welcome. No prior experience needed. Donations accepted.
Contact: Vicki Overfelt at voverfelt@proton.me or Kristin Fletcher at naturewalker7@gmail.com
Breathwork Session
This breathwork journey will take place at Flourish Foundation. Whether you are new to breathwork or a seasoned practitioner, this is for anyone looking to deepen their practice and to explore the power of breath in a supportive and nurturing environment.
Breathwork is a technique that involves conscious and intentional breathing patterns to shift your state of mind and body. During a breathwork session, you will engage in rhythmic breathing exercises, guided by music and the support of a facilitator. Breathwork can open access to deeper levels of awareness, allowing you to connect with emotions, insights, and a sense of oneness. Our sessions prioritize a safe and nurturing environment. You will have the option to work at your own pace and intensity, with support available throughout. Sharing this experience with others fosters a sense of connection as you witness the power of collective energy and gain support from the shared journey.
While generally safe, breathwork may not be suitable for everyone. Please consult with your healthcare provider before participating if you have any underlying health conditions.
