Sweet November Brunch

In November 2023, we organized the "Sweet November Brunch" for Eleven (11) Widows who lost their husbands between January and November 2023. We invited an integrative therapist (Murielle John Michelle) to help them learn how to process their grief. Some methods including the therapy technique where one screams into a pillow is often associated with a form of catharsis, a release of pent-up emotions; it informally referred to as "Pillow scream therapy" or "Scream therapy". This practice is taught to provide a physical and emotional outlet for stress, frustration or intense emotions, allowing individuals to express themselves in a controlled and private manner. They were also given beautiful gifts like foodstuffs, household items, feminine hygiene products and jewelry.
