AURORA | Estes Park resident Dayle E. Spencer — author of “Loving Allie,” “Transforming the Journey of Loss,” and “Loving Spirit, Self-help for the Journey of Loss,” will be offering a free two-day grief recovery workshop on Oct. 4 and 5 at the Aurora Central Library.
Spencer, a former federal prosecutor, has been writing, blogging and speaking about recovery since the death of her only daughter, Allie, in 2011.
The workshop is intended for grieving adults, whether it be the loss of a loved one or some other source of grieving. Each participant will receive a free Myers-Briggs Type Inventory to help them understand how loss is experienced and expressed differently and how stress impacts our response to grief and our recovery from loss. They will also receive an autographed copy of “Loving Allie” and a workbook based on “Loving Spirit.”
The Loving Spirit Workshop will be limited to only 24 participants and only one per family. To register, go to www.auroragov.org and click on the library calendar. Each day will begin at 9 a.m. and end at 4 p.m. All participants must attend both days of the session.
