The Movement Community Experience

It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator. The group meets weekly, and participants are expected to attend 80% of gatherings.

Joining a movement community was like catching a wave. Like instead of treading water, I was catching a wave with all these other people and it completely changed my grieving experience.

Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator. The group meets weekly, and participants are expected to attend 80% of gatherings.

Joining a movement community was like catching a wave. Like instead of treading water, I was catching a wave with all these other people and it completely changed my grieving experience.

The Movement Community Experience

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss of a person. It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator. The group meets weekly, and participants are expected to attend 80% of gatherings.

Joining a movement community was like catching a wave. Like instead of treading water, I was catching a wave with all these other people and it completely changed my grieving experience.

The Movement Community Experience

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss of a person. It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator. The group meets weekly, and participants are expected to attend 80% of gatherings.

Joining a movement community was like catching a wave. Like instead of treading water, I was catching a wave with all these other people and it completely changed my grieving experience.

Boston, Massachusetts (In partnership with Samaritans)
Oct
19
to Nov 16

Boston, Massachusetts (In partnership with Samaritans)

No one should grieve alone.

Join the Boston/Samaritans Movement Community.


Interested in Joining the Movement Community?

Reach out to the E-Motion Facilitator, Patrick, at pdempsey4@gmail.com. They’ll follow up to schedule a brief call and answer any questions you may have.

Key Details

  • City: Boston, MA — in partnership with Samaritans

  • Dates: October 19 - November 16

  • Who this group is for: suicide loss survivors, age 21-30

  • Movement: Walking. The group will be working towards a 5k walk, which we will complete together on November 16.

  • Culminating Event: Attend the International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day Event on 11/22 at Regis College (more details to come). The event is in partnership with Samaritans

  • Gathering Location: Sundays at 3:30 pm at Charles River Esplanade (facilitator will share exact location with the group)

  • E-Motion Facilitator: Patrick Dempsey, Matt’s Friend

What is a Movement Community?

The Movement Community is a free 5-week, in-person group experience for suicide loss survivors.

It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator.

Each week, the group gathers in a Sacred Circle to connect, reflect, and then move together toward a shared distance goal—like walking or running a 10K. Between gatherings, participants receive a grief-informed email with a weekly grief concept to consider and move with, along with a simple, supportive movement practice to integrate into your week.

Together, the group completes their shared distance goal—bringing closure to the 5-week experience. To learn more about the model, please visit our page here.

What You’ll Experience:

  • Shared Distance Goal & Movement Program
    At the start, your group will set a shared distance goal—like walking a 5K or running a 10K—and receive a weekly movement plan to help you build toward it. This plan supports consistent movement between gatherings and helps you gradually go a little further each week. You’ll complete your shared goal together in a culminating final gathering.

  • Weekly In-Person Gatherings
    Each week, you’ll gather in person, beginning with a short (10 to 15 minute) Sacred Circle where the facilitator will guide the group through intentional grief practices to help ground and center everyone. From there, you’ll move together toward your shared distance goal.

  • Weekly Grief-Informed Email
    Between gatherings, your facilitator will send a personalized email that includes:

    • A grief concept to reflect on

    • A related audio episode from our Rx to Feel series

    • A quote or poem

    • A weekly movement plan to guide your practice

The Commitment

Showing Up (Attendance):

Members are expected to attend all Movement Community gatherings or maintain an attendance rate of at least 80%.

We know that life-disrupting loss wreaks havoc on life as we know it. And yet, this community depends on the commitment of its members to ensure we are showing up for each other, building trust among each other, and creating accountability around movement practices. If a member is aware of a scheduling conflict when joining, they should let the facilitator know in advance. If something unexpected comes up during the experience and they need to miss a gathering, they’re encouraged to communicate that with the facilitator as soon as possible.

Commitment to Movement:

Members are encouraged to move their bodies each day.

This movement doesn’t have to be strenuous—gentle walking, stretching, or mindful movement all count. You'll receive a daily movement guide, and we suggest keeping it somewhere visible as a gentle reminder to move. The goal is to help you build a consistent movement practice. Movement becomes a way to be with grief—an embodied companion through loss, helping you build stamina to navigate a life that has been forever changed. Daily movement also supports our shared distance goal as a group, culminating in a meaningful final gathering. That sense of accomplishment matters.

Interested in Joining the Movement Community?

Reach out to the E-Motion Facilitator, Patrick, at pdempsey4@gmail.com. They’ll follow up to schedule a brief call and answer any questions you may have.

Meet The Facilitator

Patrick is a 27-year-old living in Boston for 3+ years. He has been a volunteer crisis counselor at Crisis Text Line for 6+ years, and has been involved with Samaritans, including participating in their annual 2025 5k. He enjoys trying new food in town, yoga, sports, and much more!

And yet, this community depends on the commitment of its members to ensure we are showing up for each other, building trust among each other, and creating accountability around movement practices. If a member is aware of a scheduling conflict when joining, they should let the facilitator know in advance. If something unexpected comes up during the experience and they need to miss a gathering, they’re encouraged to communicate that with the facilitator as soon as possible.

Commitment to Movement:

Members are encouraged to move their bodies each day.

This movement doesn’t have to be strenuous—gentle walking, stretching, or mindful movement all count. You'll receive a daily movement guide, and we suggest keeping it somewhere visible as a gentle reminder to move. The goal is to help you build a consistent movement practice. Movement becomes a way to be with grief—an embodied companion through loss, helping you build stamina to navigate a life that has been forever changed. Daily movement also supports our shared distance goal as a group, culminating in a meaningful final gathering. That sense of accomplishment matters.

What is a Movement Community?

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss.

It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator.

Each week, the group gathers in a Sacred Circle to connect, reflect, and then move together toward a shared distance goal—like walking or running a 10K. Between gatherings, participants receive a grief-informed email with a weekly grief concept to consider and move with, along with a simple, supportive movement practice to integrate into your week.

Together, the group completes their shared distance goal—bringing closure to the 8-week experience. To learn more about the model, please visit our page here.

What You’ll Experience:

  • Shared Distance Goal & Movement Program
    At the start, your group will set a shared distance goal—like walking a 5K or running a 10K—and receive a weekly movement plan to help you build toward it. This plan supports consistent movement between gatherings and helps you gradually go a little further each week. You’ll complete your shared goal together in a culminating final gathering.

  • Weekly In-Person Gatherings
    Each week, you’ll gather in person, beginning with a short (10 to 15 minute) Sacred Circle where the facilitator will guide the group through intentional grief practices to help ground and center everyone. From there, you’ll move together toward your shared distance goal.

  • Weekly Grief-Informed Email
    Between gatherings, your facilitator will send a personalized email that includes:

    • A grief concept to reflect on

    • A related audio episode from our Rx to Feel series

    • A quote or poem

    • A weekly movement plan to guide your practice

We know that life-disrupting loss wreaks havoc on life as we know it. And yet, this community depends on the commitment of its members to ensure we are showing up for each other, building trust among each other, and creating accountability around movement practices. If a member is aware of a scheduling conflict when joining, they should let the facilitator know in advance. If something unexpected comes up during the experience and they need to miss a gathering, they’re encouraged to communicate that with the facilitator as soon as possible.

Commitment to Movement:

Members are encouraged to move their bodies each day.

This movement doesn’t have to be strenuous—gentle walking, stretching, or mindful movement all count. You'll receive a daily movement guide, and we suggest keeping it somewhere visible as a gentle reminder to move. The goal is to help you build a consistent movement practice. Movement becomes a way to be with grief—an embodied companion through loss, helping you build stamina to navigate a life that has been forever changed. Daily movement also supports our shared distance goal as a group, culminating in a meaningful final gathering. That sense of accomplishment matters.

What is a Movement Community?

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss.

It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator.

Each week, the group gathers in a Sacred Circle to connect, reflect, and then move together toward a shared distance goal—like walking or running a 10K. Between gatherings, participants receive a grief-informed email with a weekly grief concept to consider and move with, along with a simple, supportive movement practice to integrate into your week.

Together, the group completes their shared distance goal—bringing closure to the 8-week experience. To learn more about the model, please visit our page here.

What You’ll Experience:

    At the start, your group will set a shared distance goal—like walking a 5K or running a 10K—and receive a weekly movement plan to help you build toward it. This plan supports consistent movement between gatherings and helps you gradually go a little further each week. You’ll complete your shared goal together in a culminating final gathering.

  • Weekly In-Person Gatherings
    Each week, you’ll gather in person, beginning with a short (10 to 15 minute) Sacred Circle where the facilitator will guide the group through intentional grief practices to help ground and center everyone. From there, you’ll move together toward your shared distance goal.

  • Weekly Grief-Informed Email
    Between gatherings, your facilitator will send a personalized email that includes:

    • A grief concept to reflect on

    • A related audio episode from our Rx to Feel series

Meet The Facilitator: Amy Eady

I’m a nurse practitioner living in Beulah, Michigan, with a background in palliative and end-of-life care. I also hold a degree in kinesiology, the study of movement and how it supports physical and emotional well-being, which has shaped my belief in movement as a path to healing. I’m certified in Compassionate Bereavement Care through the MISS Foundation, and my work is grounded in years of walking alongside individuals and families through serious illness, death, and grief.

Nature has always been a place of peace and connection for me, and I feel honored to facilitate grief support hikes here in beautiful northern Michigan. As a bereaved mom and daughter, I believe deeply in E-Motion’s mission to offer space for building resiliency through movement, community, and ritual. I lead these hikes in memory of my daughter Alivia, whose vibrant spirit and care for others continue to guide me.

What is a Movement Community?

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss.

It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator.

Each week, the group gathers in a Sacred Circle to connect, reflect, and then move together toward a shared distance goal—like walking or running a 10K. Between gatherings, participants receive a grief-informed email with a weekly grief concept to consider and move with, along with a simple, supportive movement practice to integrate into your week.

Together, the group completes their shared distance goal—bringing closure to the 8-week experience. To learn more about the model, please visit our page here.

What You’ll Experience:

  • Shared Distance Goal & Movement Program
    At the start, your group will set a shared distance goal—like walking a 5K or running a 10K—and receive a weekly movement plan to help you build toward it. This plan supports consistent movement between gatherings and helps you gradually go a little further each week. You’ll complete your shared goal together in a culminating final gathering.

  • Weekly In-Person Gatherings
    Each week, you’ll gather in person, beginning with a short (10 to 15 minute) Sacred Circle where the facilitator will guide the group through intentional grief practices to help ground and center everyone. From there, you’ll move together toward your shared distance goal.

  • Weekly Grief-Informed Email
    Between gatherings, your facilitator will send a personalized email that includes:

    • A grief concept to reflect on

    • A related audio episode from our Rx to Feel series

    • A quote or poem

    • A weekly movement plan to guide your practice

The Commitment

Showing Up (Attendance):

Members are expected to attend all Movement Community gatherings or maintain an attendance rate of at least 80%.

We know that life-disrupting loss wreaks havoc on life as we know it. And yet, this community depends on the commitment of its members to ensure we are showing up for each other, building trust among each other, and creating accountability around movement practices. If a member is aware of a scheduling conflict when joining, they should let the facilitator know in advance. If something unexpected comes up during the experience and they need to miss a gathering, they’re encouraged to communicate that with the facilitator as soon as possible.

Commitment to Movement:

Members are encouraged to move their bodies each day.

This movement doesn’t have to be strenuous—gentle walking, stretching, or mindful movement all count. You'll receive a daily movement guide, and we suggest keeping it somewhere visible as a gentle reminder to move. The goal is to help you build a consistent movement practice. Movement becomes a way to be with grief—an embodied companion through loss, helping you build stamina to navigate a life that has been forever changed. Daily movement also supports our shared distance goal as a group, culminating in a meaningful final gathering. That sense of accomplishment matters.

If something unexpected comes up during the experience and they need to miss a gathering, they’re encouraged to communicate that with the facilitator as soon as possible.

Commitment to Movement:

Members are encouraged to move their bodies each day.

This movement doesn’t have to be strenuous—gentle walking, stretching, or mindful movement all count. You'll receive a daily movement guide, and we suggest keeping it somewhere visible as a gentle reminder to move. The goal is to help you build a consistent movement practice. Movement becomes a way to be with grief—an embodied companion through loss, helping you build stamina to navigate a life that has been forever changed. Daily movement also supports our shared distance goal as a group, culminating in a meaningful final gathering. That sense of accomplishment matters.

Interested in Joining the Movement Community?

Reach out to the E-Motion Facilitator, Thalia, at thalia.margalit@gmail.com. They’ll follow up to schedule a brief call and answer any questions you may have.

What is a Movement Community?

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss.

It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator.

Each week, the group gathers in a Sacred Circle to connect, reflect, and then move together toward a shared distance goal—like walking or running a 10K. Between gatherings, participants receive a grief-informed email with a weekly grief concept to consider and move with, along with a simple, supportive movement practice to integrate into your week.

Together, the group completes their shared distance goal—bringing closure to the 8-week experience. To learn more about the model, please visit our page here.

What You’ll Experience:

  • Shared Distance Goal & Movement Program
    At the start, your group will set a shared distance goal—like walking a 5K or running a 10K—and receive a weekly movement plan to help you build toward it. This plan supports consistent movement between gatherings and helps you gradually go a little further each week. You’ll complete your shared goal together in a culminating final gathering.

  • Weekly In-Person Gatherings
    Each week, you’ll gather in person, beginning with a short (10 to 15 minute) Sacred Circle where the facilitator will guide the group through intentional grief practices to help ground and center everyone. From there, you’ll move together toward your shared distance goal.

  • Weekly Grief-Informed Email
    Between gatherings, your facilitator will send a personalized email that includes:

    • A grief concept to reflect on

    • A related audio episode from our Rx to Feel series

    • A quote or poem

    • A weekly movement plan to guide your practice

The Commitment

Showing Up (Attendance):

Members are expected to attend all Movement Community gatherings or maintain an attendance rate of at least 80%.

We know that life-disrupting loss wreaks havoc on life as we know it. And yet, this community depends on the commitment of its members to ensure we are showing up for each other, building trust among each other, and creating accountability around movement practices. If a member is aware of a scheduling conflict when joining, they should let the facilitator know in advance. If something unexpected comes up during the experience and they need to miss a gathering, they’re encouraged to communicate that with the facilitator as soon as possible.
