Finding Peace, One Piece at a Time:  What to do with your and a loved one’s personal possessions
Monday, May 20th 5:00-6:15pm, hybrid in-person in the Beit Midrash and on zoom
Facilitated by Laura Turbow of Still Life Stories

Personal possessions tell a beautiful story of an individual’s life showcasing the different phases as one progresses through their journey from birth to death.  The items may represent one’s childhood, accomplishments as an adult, memories of travel, received gifts and the passing of family heirlooms from generation to generation.

When individuals are faced with downsizing or rightsizing their living arrangement centered around age progression, personal safety, the need for additional care, the death of a loved one or to move closer to a family member, they are tasked to determine what to bring with them, but more so what to leave behind.  How does one “break up” a lifetime of belongings? Or, what if you are responsible for sorting through a loved one’s possessions after they have passed.  The process can be overwhelming yet very rewarding as well. 

Rachel is a leading voice on the subject of sorting, thinning and repurposing personal belongings.  Her workshop will engage in the how, why and proven techniques of what to save, what to share with others and what is best to be donated.  Most importantly, Rachel will help the audience understand that letting go of belongings does not mean letting go of the memories or connections that have been created throughout a lifetime.
