This supportive, trauma-informed circle is for those navigating grief of any kind and seeking support along the journey. It is a safe, neutral container to celebrate our love for those who are no longer in physical presence with us, while moving through the challenges of missing them alongside others walking a similar path.

We honor grief of all forms in this container, whether that is expressed through the loss of a loved one, pregnancy, marriage, phase of life, housing, employment… loss of any kind we are here to hold sacred space in community for. Together, we will explore gentle somatic practices to help ground our nervous systems and support our bodies in digesting the present-moment sensations that can arise through the intense emotions of grief. All emotions are celebrated here. This circle is especially supportive for those who struggle with feeling alone in what they are experiencing, who may tend to isolate, yet deeply crave connection and community. It is a safe space to be seen, heard, and witnessed in authenticity as we take steps toward healing—both individually and collectively.

Facilitated by Jess, whose path has been shaped by lived experiences of grief and a heartfelt desire to support others through their own journeys. Circle shares are not focused on the stories of our trauma, but rather on what we are feeling and experiencing in the here and now as we ride the waves of our grief journeys.

What to Expect:

• Neutral container; spiritual with no religious affiliation

• Safe space 🌈

• Opening Introduction Circle

• Grounding Breath Practice & Meditation to soothe and support your nervous system

• Optional Circle Share to process, connect, and be in community with others on a similar path

• Optional photo or meaningful relic of your loved one if you feel called to bring their energy into the circle

🌟 About Your Facilitator

Meet Jess,

Founder of Healing Light Studios

Somatic Healing Guide. Space Holder. Spiritual Bridge.

Jessina Mehu (she/her) is a trauma-informed somatic healing guide, modern-day eclectic witch, birth and rebirth doula, intuitive healer, and single mom whose lived experience has become the foundation of her life’s work.

After surviving childhood abuse, domestic violence, religious trauma, profound grief, and the loss of her late husband, Jess discovered that healing wasn’t about becoming someone new—it was about remembering who she had always been. That realization now shapes every offering at Healing Light Studios.

Known for creating safe, grounded bridges between science and spirituality, body and soul, ancient wisdom and modern understanding, Jess helps others reconnect with themselves through compassionate, trauma-informed care that honors each person’s unique path. Rather than leading people toward a predetermined destination, she gently walks beside them as they discover what healing, spirituality, and wholeness mean for themselves.

Jess openly embraces the path of a modern-day eclectic witch and feels deeply called to help heal the witch wound by creating spaces where people can safely explore earth-based spirituality, intuition, and ritual without fear or shame. She believes spirituality is deeply personal and that every individual deserves the freedom to discover what feels true for their own heart and soul.

Drawing from both lived experience and extensive professional training—including birth doula care, Kundalini Yoga and Meditation, Kundalini Rebirthing, Reiki, chakra and energy healing, somatic healing, breathwork, meditation, nervous system regulation, and trauma-informed practices—Jess creates experiences that are both deeply intuitive and thoughtfully grounded.

Through weekly classes, monthly Full Moon rituals, Grief Circles, one-on-one private sessions, private group experiences, and the transformational Rising Goddess Journey, Jess invites others into safe, grounded spaces where they can heal, rise, remember, and become.
