How it works

Únashay moves in many ways. Below is a start of land-based and regional offerings we are developing. Have a look and reach out to inquire.

This would be in one or both of our guest homes on the land (within walking distance of another), as well as the option to use community spaces.

What is a Noria grief café?

Noria grief cafés are hosted monthly in regional locations throughout New Mexico. They are a hybrid of guided and exploratory sharing of what hurts, held in gentle, curious, reverent community, (with tea and/ or potluck food to follow)! Each month is led by different facilitators, artists, coming from varying experiences of loss, cultural backgrounds, and expressions, whilst holding a common thread of reverence for all.
