As the breath flows in and out, so too does grief rise and fall like the tides.

In learning to move with its rhythms, we begin to dive beneath the surface — into the deeper heart, where sorrow and love intertwine.

What does it truly mean to keen?

As ancestral trauma surfaces and the need for communal grief grows louder, we are being called to remember. Keening is an ancient, embodied practice of mourning — a way to give voice to what aches, to what loves, and to what longs for release.

Come sit with us in this tender space, where sorrow and love are gently spun into gold. We gather to breathe, to speak of life and death, and to listen for the sounds that rise from the heart of our longing.

We’ll be guided by beloved elder Phyllida Anam-Aire, who carries the living memory of this tradition and invites us into its sacred rhythms.
