Reach out to Bri’s Lodge for support with the loss of a loved one.

Bri's Lodge helps individuals cope with loss, supports their healing, nurtures their physical and emotional well-being, and brings hope for the future - No one should grieve alone.

The death of someone you love changes your life forever. To heal, you must move through your grief. Your grief journey will not move in a direct route and end at the finish line.

Grief is like the wilderness of Minnesota–a vast, endless field, river, lake, or forest. Your journey through the grief wilderness will move through twists and turns. You will eventually find your way out; find healing. Bri’s Lodge can help you on your unique grief journey.

Our Bri’s Lodge team will help you understand your grief using holistic approaches of the five senses with mind, body, and spirit to help you learn how to integrate your loss in a healthy way. We will companion you to find ways to honor yourself and your loved one in a safe and supportive environment.

The Future Of Bri's Lodge

BriAnna Kruzel passed away unexpectedly at 18 on September 28, 2013, from unknown causes. BriAnna’s parents, Randy & Tami Kruzel, struggled to understand and cope with their loss throughout their grief journey. In February of 2018, they had the opportunity to visit Faith’s Lodge in Danbury, WI Faith’s Lodge provides a peaceful escape for families to get away while spending time with others who understand what they are going through. During their stay, they spent several days with other couples who also lost their children tragically. The lodge offered discussions led by a licensed social worker, meditation, massage, healing crafts, complimentary meals, outdoor activities, and so much more. They left this weekend with a sense of hope in their grief journey and made it their mission to bring a similar concept to Central Minnesota. They were truly inspired by their dedication to supporting those who have lost a child. What Would Bri Do has developed a strong Board of Directors and has redefined our mission statement as “What Would Bri Do helps individuals cope with loss, supports their healing, nurtures their physical and emotional well-being, and brings hope for the future – No one should grieve alone.” They are committed to building a space for those who are grieving. Get in touch with them today to find out how you can further their cause.
