Leaf like a tree

Leaf like a tree offers mindful grief walks in Amsterdam, creating a warm, welcoming space for people living with loss. Its approach recognizes that grief is a personal journey, while offering companionship, understanding, and room to share experiences with others. The walks make space for conversations about mortality, change, death, and bereavement, without pressure to move at anyone else’s pace.

Guided walks take place in natural settings, where participants can slow down, notice their surroundings, and find moments of calm and connection. The organization’s program includes regular mindful grief walks, themed walks, and gatherings for particular experiences of loss, including walks for daughters without a mother and for parents who have lost a child. Events are held in locations such as Amsterdam’s Amstelpark, Westerpark, and Noorderpark.

Participation in Leaf like a tree’s offerings is free, and volunteers help make the program possible. Donations are welcome to support its work. Through mindful movement, nature, and shared presence, Leaf like a tree accompanies people as they navigate grief.
