Join us while we watch and discuss films that explore topics surrounding life, death, and mortality. We’ll be showing them in the living room once a month on Sunday evenings, from 6pm to 8pm, to be followed by time for discussion. Bring friends and family! Light refreshment and tea will be available. Feel free to bring your own water bottle if you prefer.
The movie(s) we will be watching is Life with Ghosts, which records the first-ever publicly funded attempt to facilitate contact with deceased individuals to determine if such contact can be used to reduce severe grief symptoms. Researchers have known for decades that survivors do better with their grief when an emotional bond is maintained with the deceased. And yet psychologists, grief counselors, and clergy routinely discourage such behavior as “denial” or even “heresy.” Based on amazing work done by Dr. Allan Botkin using EMDR therapy https://www.livingwithghostsmovie.com/about
