Have you heard of journaling recommended for dealing with painful emotions?

Have you started a journal only to find it again weeks or months later with mostly blank pages?

Have you struggled with what to write in a journal?

The Inscribed Grief Journaling Group provides a safe and supportive environment for sharing thoughts and feelings related to grief.  Together we will process the conflicting, and often confusing, emotions of grief through writing.

The group offers a sense of community and connection with others who are also experiencing grief.  We will have a regular place online to meet to express and reflect on grief and the healing of our hearts.  It will be a safe space to remember and honor our loved ones who have passed away.

Structure of the Group

Twice a month we will meet for a live Zoom meeting with a topic of the day led by your Grief Recovery Coach, Debbra Bronstad.  We will also have a private Facebook Group to share journaling, reflections and community in between live sessions.  Video replays will be available for group members if you miss the live session and want to watch later.  Participating live is highly recommended to benefit from the interaction of group members.

Debbra will supply a journaling prompt for a brief time of writing during the live group meetings.

Optional homework from the 52-Week Devotional Journal for Grief will be offered.  If you complete the homework, you’ll have an opportunity to share from your reflections in the next session.

Benefits of the Inscribed Grief Journaling Group


Grief journaling is a path toward healing.

Writing about your thoughts and feelings after loss provides a way to move the energy of grief out of your body, heart and mind.  Journaling provides so many benefits including reducing anxiety, depression and pain in the body.  It can even help you sleep better.

Using Debbra’s 52-Week Devotional Journal for Grief we will work through healing Scriptures and journaling prompts to help you reflect on your relationship with your loved one.

Frequently Asked Questions

1.  Who is this group for?

A.  This group is for Christian women who have experienced the death of a family member.

2.  If my loss is due to divorce, is this group for me?

A.  If you are also dealing with grief from the loss of a family member, yes.  However, if your primary loss is due to divorce, this would not be the group for you.   

3.  Will I have to share with the group what I journaled about?

A.  You will be encouraged to talk about your response to the journaling prompt.  As we are vulnerable and authentic with one another, group participants will feel more connected with one another.  You won’t be forced to share any more than what you are comfortable with. I believe once you are in the group and hearing from the other women, you will likely want to share as well.  But if not, that’s okay too. 

4.  What is the structure of the group?

The Inscribed Grief Journaling Group is a monthly membership hosted in a private Facebook group.  The group will meet live on Zoom twice a month on Thursdays, 2 pm ET.  Replays will be available to group members.

5.  Can I cancel my membership?

Yes. If you decide that the group isn’t for you, you can cancel your membership.  To avoid the next monthly subscription payment you will need to cancel by the day before of the next payment transaction.  After a cancellation, if you change your mind, you will be eligible to reenroll in the third month after your cancellation.  For example, if you cancel before the May payment, you will be eligible to rejoin in August.
