Transform Pain into Purpose

In this four-week online book club experience, participants will be guided through what Body Grief is, how it impacts all humans, and how Body Grief can be embraced for greater self-awareness.

Through dismantling the narrative that your body is “against you,” participants will learn strategies to give voice to new ways of coping with their fluctuating abilities with self-compassion and grace, even when it seems their bodies are working against them in a hostile healing environment.

Jayne Mattingly is a disability advocate, author, artist, and public speaker who has transformed pain into purpose by drawing attention to the Body Grief experience. Her seminal debut book This Is Body Grief shines a much-needed light on the Body Grief journey itself while providing actionable information for individuals seeking the tools to transmute their own Body Grief.

Body Grief goes beyond sadness. It is the emotional response—regardless of what that emotion is to the internal and external expectations placed on your body.

The Body Grief experience is one that is highly personal to Jayne. Her transparency as she navigates her own Body Grief has drawn a devoted following as a disability, chronic illness, and body image advocate, author, and public speaker.

In this online experience, you will discover:

• The main principles of the Body Grief experience
• The emotional and physical connection that creates the Body Grief experience
• How to work with Body Grief to navigate the waves of life
• Strategies to cope with self-compassion and grace

Please join us for this heart-centered online experience.
