Glimpse of the regime

Cluster 1: Arriving With Our Grief

▸ Session 1: Meeting One Another, Meeting Our Loss
• Introductions and gentle grounding
• Sharing what brings us here, if and as we are able
• Naming the child we carry with us
• Setting group intentions and care agreements

▸ Session 2: What Grief Feels Like Right Now
• Open sharing: how grief lives in our daily lives
• Talking about the quieter, lonelier sides of loss
• Reflection: What has changed since the loss? What remains?

Cluster 2: The World Around Us

▸ Session 3: When Others Don’t Understand
• Sharing experiences of isolation, silence, or misunderstanding
• Navigating family, friends, and society post-loss
• Reflection: What do I wish people knew?

Cluster 3: The Bond That Remains

▸ Session 4: Remembering and Staying Connected
• Speaking about our children — stories, memories, essence
• What helps us stay connected to them
• Optional sharing of photos, objects, or rituals (only if comfortable)

▸ Session 5: Grief on Special Days
• Discussing anniversaries, birthdays, quiet moments
• How we mark or move through these days
• Gentle conversation around how we care for ourselves during them

Cluster 4: Continuing in Community

▸ Session 6: What We’re Carrying Forward
• Revisiting what this space has offered
• What we’re holding, what we’re leaving, what we might need
• Group closure ritual (e.g. name-round, candle-lighting, silence)

  • This group let me be real in my grief, every emotion welcomed. Being with others who truly understand has been deeply healing.

    Missing my little one forever

  • Grieving my child felt unbearably lonely, until this group. Here, I can express everything without fear. Everyone understands, because they’ve been through it too.

    Abhay

    Lost my child too soon

  • In this group, I could be fully myself, crying, angry, or laughing. No judgment, just true understanding of what it means to lose a child.
