Grief to Grace: When Grief Becomes a Doorway

Join evidential medium and spiritual teacher Jeffrey Peck for a restorative weekend exploring the enduring nature of love, the wisdom of grief, and the many ways our loved ones continue to remain present in our lives.


Some griefs don't want to be fixed. They want to be witnessed.

For two nights in the redwoods, we'll do the quiet work that ordinary life rarely makes room for — learning not to move on from what we've lost, but to move with it.

Drawn from The Awakening Series, we'll walk the arc from grief toward grace… learning to recognize the signs our loved ones leave, and the ways presence outlasts the body. This isn't about closure. It's about discovering that what you carry is not a burden to set down, but a love that's still asking to be lived.

Days are shaped around guided meditation, gentle teaching, and small-group conversation — held inside the rhythm of Ratna Ling itself: the dharma offerings, the vegetarian table, the trails, the silence between the trees. Nothing is required of you but your willingness to be here.

January is the right time. The days are short, the fog moves through, and the world finally gets quiet enough to hear what your grief has been trying to say.

You don't have to do this alone. You never did.

BONUS OFFER: After attending this retreat, you will have continued guidance by receiving lifetime access to Jeffreyʻs online course Grief to Grace!
