Gratitude Mandala Day 5

Dedicated to psychotherapist and author Francis Weller, who has taught me so much about rituals of both grief and gratitude. His book The Wild Edge of Sorrow should be required reading for our times, a profound exploration on the nature of grief and the way community can alchemical transform sorrow into compassion and courage. Here is his website to learn more about his life-changing work:http://www.wisdombridge.net/ and here is a link to a one hour video where he discusses the Five Gates of Grief
