Death Work Services
What could be possible if we stopped viewing conversations around death as something to avoid out of fear and started embracing the truth that death is simply another part of life? Being supported during death can not only prevent the experience from turning into a traumatic event, but also create space for the shifts, the unknown and the unexplainable that surround death.
Our humanity reflects back this constant truth- "We must change in order to grow." We live on a planet where Night fades into Day and Winter melts into Spring. Our own cycles of Childhood give way to Adulthood and eventually Life begins to merge into Death.
When we treat physical death as another inevitable and sacred transition, we can infuse the process with care, dignity, love and individuality. The role of a Death Doula is to honor the desires of their dying client and the family through this process.
