A Weekend Retreat: Community-Centred Deathcare

Fall seems to be the time that workshops, programs, and conversations around end-of-life care naturally arise in my life. Starting in September, I'll be co-facilitating a number of events. I'll soon have all of them up on the website, but wanted to send this one along as there is early bird pricing for the next two weeks. This retreat promises to offer engaging, informative, and thought-provoking discussions on end-of-life choices. Register Here.


 
 

EVENT DETAILS:


The Centre for Earth and Spirit invites you to join us for a weekend gathering on the edge of the Salish Sea. This magical property has forest paths, a pond, and sweeping ocean views that call us into a container--a space where we can activate confidence, agency, and community in reclaiming end-of-life care. Our interest is to weave connections, cultivate the sacred, and remember our innate capacity to tend one another in and through this potent transitional time.


This invitation includes an opportunity to immerse ourselves in meaningful inquiry and dialogue to illuminate unique issues and challenges for each participant. In a safe and welcoming environment, understanding, compassion, and belonging can blossom into action.


Topics include: Advance Care Planning, natural burial and options for disposition, home funeral practices, storytelling, creative expression, silence and ceremony.


This weekend is for you if you:

  • wish to be more informed around conscious choices in end-of-life

  • are called to reclaim dying and death as a personal, familial, and village process

  • care about an eco-responsible approach to dying and death

  • are inspired to be a community builder in kinship with all of life

  • are a caregiver

  • are human!


Upon registration you will receive an email with more information about location, break schedules, and other workshop event details.
