Wishing Well Center is founded on the belief that death, loss, and grief are all part of Living, and that humans thrive best when they have a community that can hold and support them as they move through these rites of passage.

To that end, we offer a range of events, including classes, groups, and workshops designed to bring people together around one of life's most inevitable - and least talked about - topics: death, loss, and grief. 

​​Live Like You're Dying :
Heart & Soul-Centered End-of-Life (EOL) Planning Group Course

Live Like You're Dying is a 7-session, in-person experience for those willing to hold their mortality close as they explore, practice, and learn how to be more present with their inevitable death.

Making heart and soul-centered decisions to prepare for your death requires deep inquiry around five core life domains (Physical, Mental, Emotional, Spiritual, and Practical).
​
​The 7, 90-minute sessions take place in small groups (no more than 12 per group) to foster intimate connections with like-hearted community.​

In The Shelter of Each Other: The Sacred Work of Grief in Community
July 2026 & February 2027

We all are faced with loss, including the death of a loved one or a beloved pet, loss of health, a relationship, a home, or a dream. Add to these the increasing destruction of the natural world and a diminished sense of community coherence, and the losses can feel overwhelming. These personal and collective losses are wounds to the soul.
 
During this retreat, we form what Michael Meade calls an “instant village,” creating a robust container where we can metabolize and transmute our losses in ways largely inaccessible in modern culture.
