Making updates to see if they work


Learning what dying well entails, what it asks of us, will transform our lives and support us in becoming deeper people. It will help us meet our dying time when it arrives.
It also turns out be be essential when we are called upon to provide care for the dying.
It deepens our willingness and capacity
to meet what is dying in the world.
Along with the logistical steps of ‘getting our house in order’, we will engage in the emotional/psychological steps toward healing relationships with oneself and with others, and the spiritual work for completing one’s life and leaving in peace. 
This training has the possibility to transform both your life and your death.
This training is for all those who wish to prepare for their dying time and their death; for those who may care for a dying loved one, those who currently work in the fields of caring for the dying and their families, those wishing to, or being called to work in these fields, and those who care about the world.

"A death doula, first and foremost, is a ‘placeholder’ in the community,
representing the presence of death in community life. A community resource for individuals, families and professionals in these fields.
One who 'shows up for death' "
Reverend Bodhi Be
