Q&A Session with Founder Christine Meyer

Are you an adult motherless daughter? Is She Climbs Mountains new to you and you want to know more? Have you been aware of our community for some time now and are nervous (this is normal!) about joining a support group or attending an event? Are you feeling curious about connecting with other women with the shared experience of mother loss and this is the nudge you’ve been waiting for? Do you have questions about what we do and why we do it?

Join Founder Christine Meyer for a casual virtual meet-up to learn about our programs and offerings for women and ask any questions you might have about She Climbs Mountains and how you can become involved! This gathering is FREE and open to motherless daughters ages 19+.

** ALL are welcome - She Climbs Mountains participants, family members, and friends are invited to join us for this special evening of honoring and remembering our mothers and other loved ones who have come before us. **

About The Ceremony

Join us at Lakewood with your family, friends and community for a moving and meaningful experience.

You can reserve a lantern, which Lakewood will provide, and decorate it with words or images of someone that you love and miss. Markers and supplies will be provided, if you would like to include a photo you will need to bring in a scanned or copied image as you will not be able to get the lanterns back.

At dusk, we will illuminate our lanterns together and release them onto the lake in a beautiful ceremony, reading the names of those who are missed. The effect is breathtaking and magical, connecting us to our loved ones and to each other.

Nature Connection & Healing
Jul

6:00 PM18:00

Nature Connection & Healing

Please join us in partnership with Suez Nields, Anam Treo, LLC, for an exploration of the benefits of nature-connected practices as we travel along our individual and collective journey home to self, soul, and aliveness. We will gather in community and explore the connections between our inner wilderness and the wilderness that the Earth provides.

The Earth, literally, can hold us in our grief. It can be the container, can soak up our tears, can dissipate our frustrations and anxieties.

We will meet for an introduction, followed by a nature immersion activity (a guided hike/walk), and reconnect for Q&A/discussion.

$7 suggested donation (for facilitation and administrative fees)

“In the Wilderness, there’s space for your fear and your grief, there’s space for your anger and your joy, and there’s space for your tears. But most of all, in the wilderness there’s space for you to find your own sort of Peace.” ~Lance Garland
