In this episode, Beth is joined by Laurence Cole, a song elder and ritualist based in Port Townsend, Washington who has been co-facilitating and offering community grief tending gatherings for over ten years.
Join them as Laurence shares some powerful insights from his years of experience facilitating community grief tending rituals. Laurence also discusses the “crying need” for grief rituals and how singing, dancing, storytelling, and silence can be used as technologies of belonging and connection. Beth and Laurence also explore the challenges of modern society, including separation, isolation, and grief and Laurence offers hope and wisdom on how we can move forward by embracing community and understanding our interconnectedness as humans.
His primary teachers and influences have been Sobonfu and Malidoma Somé, Angeles Arrien, Michael Meade, James Hillman, Francis Weller, Joanna Macy, and Martín Prechtel. He is an advocate for this work not only for the ways it can bring release and healing for individuals, but also for the ways it can enable a renewed sense of respectful connection and belonging for groups of folks working together for restoration of mutually flourishing community for all our relations, both human and beyond.
