We’re excited to share that Tending to Loss: A Community Grief Offering + Ritual , our monthly grief & healing gathering for the BIPOC + Queer community, now has a new home at Black Being LA. This partnership marks a beautiful alignment of purpose, energy, and intention, and we’re grateful to co-create a space that continues to hold our grief, our stories, and our healing with the care it deserves.
Black Being is a queer and woman-founded organization based in Inglewood. Black Being emerged from a profound understanding of the specific needs faced by Black individuals in South Los Angeles. It was conceived as a dedicated space, a sanctuary in the city, where the pursuit of wellbeing takes center stage. Our commitment is fueled by the stark statistics that outline the health disparities affecting the Black community. Check out their classes here!
Tending to Loss was born in response to the ongoing grief reverberating through our communities—from the devastation of the local wildfires, protests, and the climate crisis to the weight of systemic injustice and personal loss.
This is a space created for those of us navigating the nonlinear, complex path of grief—whether mourning loved ones, grieving lost futures, or carrying the heaviness of collective suffering.
What to Expect:
Rooted in Black, African, and Latine ancestral wisdom, this gathering draws on somatic, spiritual, and communal practices to support your healing and remembrance. Together, we’ll share space through:
💬 Grounded conversation
🕯️ Ritual and meditation
🧘🏾♀️ Embodied connection
👐🏽 Community support and care
This is a soft landing. A place to come exactly as you are. You don’t need to have the right words or the perfect energy. All parts of you are welcome here.
