Your grief has a voice…
are you listening?

There's a buildup that happens when grief has nowhere to go.

…the lump in your throat.
…tears that won't fall.
…tightness in your chest that won't ease.

Your body is holding onto what's longing to be heard…

…waiting for a pathway through.

And so it settles.
In your throat.
your chest.
your breath.

…it needs permission and space to move.
…it needs a way out that feels safe.

Grief is complex in ways we don't always recognize.

It's who you've lost…
and who you never got to become.
It's the love that was there…
and the love that wasn't.
It's your pain…
and your grandmother's pain
—the collective ache of being human right now.

It’s how all of it weaves and muddles together.

It's layered…
and these layers live in the body.

Grief doesn't ask permission before it surfaces—and when it does, it often brings everything with it.

One loss can wake up all the losses that came before. It hits in the middle of a work meeting. At the grocery store. While you're trying to get dressed in the morning. The waves come without warning, carrying more weight than the moment alone would suggest, and you need something that helps you stay with it instead of pushing it down.

You need tools for those moments. Not just for when you have time to "process," but for when grief shows up in the middle of your life and asks to be met. Small, pocket-sized practices that help you work with it mindfully—giving grief space to move through the feelings, while honouring their significance.

Introducing

A 5-Minute Practice That Meets Grief in the Moment

This 75-minute workshop teaches you to identify five specific places along the voice pathway where grief tends to settle. You'll learn simple tools for each area, then bring them together into a 5-minute body scan and release practice you can use whenever grief surfaces.

Whether you're at work, in a meeting with a client, in public, or simply moving through your day when the wave hits—this practice gives you a way to honour what's present without needing hours of processing time or a private space to fall apart.

Here’s how we do that:

  1. Identify five specific places along the voice pathway where grief tends to settle

  2. Learn somatic practices to work with each of the five areas - helping grief process in the way that feels right for your body

  3. Bring them together into a 5-minute body scan and release practice you can use whenever grief surfaces

Your grief doesn't need to be active (or activated) for this training. I'll be teaching a gentle, pocket-sized practice for those moments when grief is longing—and ready—to be heard. When you give grief voice in these small moments, it can finally move through you instead of getting swallowed down, becoming yet another layer to process sometime "later."

This workshop is a gentle exploration of the somatic experience of grief. It's your body's chance to connect with the complex experience in a way that doesn't get twisted up in the mind, leaving you spinning and stuck.

To meet grief in the moment.

To let it pass through you.

To honour it.

You're navigating your own grief journey. You understand that grief is an ongoing part of life, not something you "get over" once and for all. And while you may not necessarily be in crisis right now—you're building your toolkit for when the waves inevitably come.

You work with grief regularly—as a therapist, counsellor, social worker, journalist, hospice worker, or anyone touching grief on the regular. You want practical tools for yourself and possibly for the people you support.

You're drawn to this work if you:

  • Want a set of easy, gentle tools to help you with grief as it shows up in your daily life

  • Want to complement your healing journey with more somatic, body-centred practices

  • Are curious about the mind-body connection and how emotions live in the body

  • Feel intuitively called to work with your voice, or are simply curious about how it could help

  • Recognize that grief comes in layers—loss, disappointment, change—and you want to honour all of it

You don't need any background in voice work or body practices. This meets you where you are.

This workshop is For You If…

Here's What You'll Learn in This Workshop:

Map where grief lives: Learn to identify the 5 specific places along the voice pathway where grief tends to hold on

Open what's closed: Simple techniques to create space in your throat when that lump won't let you cry or speak

Engage the power to move it: Use your breath like a gentle engine to create the energy grief needs to flow

Give grief a voice: Learn safe, gentle ways to let sound move through you at your own pace and comfort level

Create your 5-minute protocol: Bring it all together into a simple body scan and release practice you can use anywhere

Meet Your Guide

hey, I'm Chelsea…

…artist, vocal coach, space holder and somatic explorer who bridges academic research, musical expression, and emotional healing. With a Masters in Ethnomusicology and extensive training in vocal performance, I have dedicated my life to understanding the profound connections between voice, emotion, and personal transformation.

With now close to two decades of teaching experience, it is my honour to create transformative, safe spaces where voices can be acknowledged, expressed, and ultimately alchemized into personal wisdom and powerful truth.

As the creator of Voicing Grief, I am offering a unique approach to understanding and processing grief through the voice. I believe voice is medicine: a way to release stuck emotion, process experience, and find deeper meaning and purpose within the pain, ultimately offering a powerful pathway to personal growth and healing.

FAQ

Everything you need to know before enrolling

  • Not at all. This workshop is about learning tools you can use whenever grief surfaces—whether that's today, next month, or years from now. Many people come to build their toolkit before they need it, or to have practices ready for ongoing grief work. You don't need to be in crisis to benefit from these tools.

  • Nope! During the workshop, you will keep your mic muted during the practices. The protocol is designed to be gentle and private—these are tools you can use silently or with sound, depending on what feels right for you in any given moment.

  • No, and it's not meant to. Think of this as a complementary tool that works alongside whatever support you already have. This workshop teaches you a body-based practice for those in-between moments—it's not therapy, and it's not a replacement for deeper grief work.

  • None at all. This workshop is designed for complete beginners. I'll guide you through everything step-by-step, and you can adapt any practice to what feels comfortable for your body.

  • Yes. Many therapists, counsellors, and hospice workers take this workshop both for their own grief work and to learn tools they might share with clients. The practices are gentle and accessible enough to teach to others, though if you want deeper training in facilitating this work, I’m happy to chat about that.

  • You'll receive lifetime access to the replay and all materials, so you can go through the workshop whenever works for you. The practices are designed to be revisited, so having the recording can actually be valuable for building the practice into your life over time.

  • Due to the digital format, all sales are final.
