Hi, I’m Lotte
Bestselling author, writer, grief educator, and founder of The Grief School.
Before specialising in grief, I spent years teaching yoga and meditation in some of London’s leading studios — work that shaped the grounded, embodied approach I bring to everything I do. Today, I help thousands of people navigate loss through storytelling, mentorship, holistic and practical tools.
My work includes the bestselling memoir Bittersweet, and writing featured in Cosmopolitan, i Paper, Women’s Health, Refinery29 and more.
At The Grief School, I support women in navigating grief — and in reshaping a life that honours both their loss and their longing to rebuild.

Kind Words From Our Community
Being part of The Grief School has so far had a profound and life altering impact on my journey with grief. Being able to share my emotions and fears and connect with others in a safe and non-judgmental container has truly been so empowering. I am beyond grateful and feel so privileged to have been part of this amazing community. I don’t feel alone anymore.
– Catherine, Reclaim & Rebuild Member
The past twelve weeks has changed, challenged, unravelled and pieced back together parts of myself I thought I had lost forever. Parts of myself and my life I felt so disconnected with, grappling with how to move forward, if I even wanted to do so, and if I did for what. I move forward having met a community which has truly brought me back to myself, the understanding, tools and little toolkit of what to draw on what those inevitable hard days roll around, and for the first time a genuine feeling that there is joy ahead.
– E, Reclaim & Rebuild Member
This experience has been life changing for me. Lotte’s guidance and support really makes you feel valued and cared for, and the community has also helped me feel less alone. I’ll be forever grateful to have crossed paths with Lotte, and to have been a part of The Grief School.

Bittersweet: A True Story of Love and Loss
Written in the depths of bereavement, Bittersweet is a tender, honest exploration of love, loss, and what it means to survive the unthinkable and begin again. If you’ve ever felt alone in your grief, I hope its pages help you feel seen, understood, and held.
“Profound pain melds with profound hope in Bittersweet, Lotte Bowser’s beautiful debut. A work of staggering grace, this book reveals Lotte’s gift for communicating both the hellish enormity of her grief alongside her capacity to reach for shards of meaning in the most agonising of times. Sure to be a balm for those grasping for an anchor in the raw days of early loss.” — Women’s Health
