Whether you have a newborn or your children are older, we recognize a need to process how a grief journey of pregnancy or infant loss impacts parenting your living children. This is a space to talk about our specific experiences and complicated emotions. Please note it's common for parents of newborns to join, so there may be babies present.

Social Gathering @ Sleepy Pig Farm

Join some Empty Arms community members on Saturday, May 11th at Sleepy Pig Farm in Grainville (near Central/Southwest VT). Tiffany and Joe lost their baby girl, Bella in September 2024, and have found comfort connecting with others who have suffered pregnancy and infant loss. They are opening up their beautiful farm for a social gathering on Saturday, May 11th. This gathering comes right before Mother’s Day, and we hope it is a reminder that you can be affirmed and valued as a parent to the baby you miss.

Yoga for Grief, Loss & Healing (In-Person and Virtual)
May

7:30 PM19:30

Yoga for Grief, Loss & Healing (In-Person and Virtual)

Yoga is an expansive practice that provides us with techniques to care for ourselves, process feelings of grief, and find peace in difficult times. When we experience trauma our body has a natural tendency to hold its breath, which can cause tension in the mind and body.

During this practice, we will incorporate pranayama (breath exercises), meditation, and movement to help release tension, calm the nervous system, and connect to our breath. We hope that you will take these practices off the mat and apply them to your daily life.

Join yoga instructor, and Empty Arms community member Kendra Greene, as we explore ways in which yoga can calm and ground our bodies. This event is free, but intended to be for anyone who is grieving pregnancy or infant loss. Click “View Event” and register online.
