Espai Pathos’ project contains a great richness thanks to a broad vision and the audacity to approach grief from a social and community-oriented perspective, but also because of how Emma proposes to tear down the taboos around it. Working with Emma is synonymous with commitment, rigor, attention to detail and inspiring creativity —but above all, for me it is always an experience full of great human quality and learning. Her background and knowledge are oriented with great generosity to transform the environment, and bring light into it. |

Emma appeared in my life unexpectedly as she was mentioned in a conversation with a mutual friend during one of the toughest moments I've ever had. Her accompaniment and commitment both full of empathy and sensitivity have been an essential support during my process of grieving. The space we created together was like a haven where I became able to express, put in order and put into words my thoughts and emotions with freedom. Thanks to the resources and strategies she gave me I could work in many aspects of myself which I've kept with me ever since. I feel fortunate to have shared so much with her and I know I can count now and in the future on her most sincere support. |

In the spring of 2019 I participated in the workshop Veus en dols organized by Emma. During the sessions I experienced how the written and the spoken word is capable to untie knots, soften, open channels of expression from the heart, and weave bonds of support and accompaniment. The way Emma conducted the workshop with her calm, open and respectful presence and the practices and exercises she prepared —along with the commitment and complicity of all of the participants—, made it possible. An innovative approach and a cathartic activity. |

After a traumatic loss, I participated in two workshops led by Emma Navó. The writing allowed me to bring my pain into reality and also allowed my emotions to evolve over time. Through the arts I could explore the traces of what had been a significant loss for me in my life. I also became aware of the great healing power of the ritual. Emma accompanies with great sensitivity, delicacy and respect. She knows how to leave the right and just space, and also has provided confidence to myself to understand suffering both from the emotions and from the body. |
