The Grief Lounge
A free, supportive, monthly online space where your grief is seen, heard and witnessed without judgement.
A place to join exactly as you are. 
A place where no one will try to ‘fix you’.
A place where your loss is honoured.

The Grief Lounge is a gentle, powerful community gathering for people who have experienced significant loss and want a space to be held in their grief alongside others who truly understand. Whether your loss was weeks ago or decades ago, you belong here.
You Don’t Have To Carry Your Grief Alone
Grief can feel incredibly isolating. 

Even when people love you, they often don’t know how to sit with you in your pain. 
They rush to fix it.
They change the subject.
They expect you to “be okay” sooner than you are.

And so, as a griever, you retreat and keep your grief locked up inside.

All of those emotions and feelings that go unspoken.

All of that sadness and sorrow trapped away.

Showing up in a world where you feel you need to wear a mask of pretence and even when surrounded by people you still feel alone.

The world has lost its colour and you’re not sure how to get out of the greyness.
The Grief Lounge exists so you finally have a space where:

  • Your grief doesn’t make people uncomfortable


  • Your love and loss are honoured


  • You don’t have to explain yourself


  • You’re surrounded by others who truly get it



And my reason for creating it is so that you can:
  • Show up more fully in your life


  • Acknowledge your grief and sit with it for a while


  • Begin to notice glimmers and hope in your life again


  • See a way through and a way forwards


  • Meet other people experiencing grief and loss


  • Feel seen, heard and witnessed in a safe, non judgemental space


  • Understand your feelings and find a way to express them


  • Recognise that grief, joy and sadness can all co-exist



What The Grief Lounge Is



A monthly live online gathering

A community of people who have experienced loss

A space held by a grief specialist (me!) who is also living with grief

A judgement-free environment

A place to share as much or as little as feels right 


A space where all human emotion is welcome and judgement is left at the door.

In the Grief Lounge Sessions We Will
Have a theme each month (eg: spring, memories, hope, what you wish people knew about… etc)

Have prompts to help you articulate your thoughts and feelings about the theme

Have a guided visualisation / meditation / breathwork / somatic exercise

Have the opportunity to ask questions & seek support guidance, not only from me, your qualified grief specialist, but your peers lived experience of grief

Provide a space to contribute and take part as little or as much as you feel like on the day, show up as you are 

(I will also be seeking your feedback and creating the space for what you need, these are my intentions for now)
This Space Is For You If…
You’ve been looking for a place to bring your grief but haven’t found the right space yet 

You’ve tried other grief support sessions and they didn’t feel aligned 

You want to show up exactly as you are — tears, numbness, anger, love and all

You feel ready (even gently ready) to share with others who understand

You need someone to truly witness your loss

Your grief is new — or many years old

You’re open to noticing the smallest glimmers of light
This Space Is Not For You If…
You want to compare whose grief is worse

You judge how others grieve

You aren’t willing to sit with emotional honesty

You don’t want to connect with others experiencing loss

You want to stay stuck without any openness to growth

Join the Next Grief Lounge Gathering

The next session takes place at 12-1pm BST on Thursday June 18th. 

You’ve nothing to lose and so much to gain.

Sign up here to get the link and reminders so you don’t forget.


I’d love to see you there.

A Bit About Lou, Your Grief Lounge Host
Lou Hynes is a qualified grief specialist, life coach and clinical hypnotherapist.

She had experienced grief in a few forms over the years but it wasn’t until her husband died suddenly in 2022 that she found herself experiencing profound loss, trauma and bereavement.

Having seen (and heard) the good, bad and ugly of our society's grief literacy (or illiteracy), she decided to make it her mission to create a world in which everyone is able to offer compassion to a grieving person.

Lou provides 1:1 and Group Grief Support Programs, Grief Education Workshops to Workplaces, and delivers talks to communities of grievers.

The Grief Lounge is the space Lou wishes she’d been able to find.
