Tell it to the bees - workshop on loss in Plymouth with Lorna- Elder and drumkeeper.

Tell it to the Bees -Day’s Workshop on Grief, Loss and Healing.

Previously offered with Celebrate your Heartbeat Jersey we now bring this workshop home to Plymouth 

Discover the healing power of Bee Medicine in our day of community. We are delighted to invite you to a unique and transformative workshop dedicated to diving into loss and healing with our bee relatives. This immersive experience offers solace, reflection, and tools for transition through wisdom, song and medicine inspired by these remarkable creatures. Our Workshop is designed to help participants explore the complex emotions of loss and grief through connection with nature. Bees, as symbols of resilience, cooperation, and harmony, inspire profound lessons on renewal and healing. Their Honey is a healing medicine. In our culture when someone dies in a village community the bees are told...

The “Tell it to the Bees” work was given to Lorna who called to the Bees in deep grief when her wee brother died suddenly in 2023. 

Whether you are seeking a path to process loss or simply wish to engage in a reflective experience, this is an opportunity to connect with your heart and explore new ways of healing. It is not only about loss of loved ones. Losses may be of health, place, community, culture, freedom.
