End-of-Embodiment Support

can begin from a variety of points,

  • your current hopes and concerns

  • navigating the medical system

  • preparing for the inner journey ahead

  • creating legacies you wish to gift to others

  • tending to your spiritual and relational bonds, with both the living and the dead

My role is,

  • to advocate for your autonomy, dignity, and empowerment

  • to research, and coordinate family/community supports

  • to provide you with comfort and safety to express what matters most to you


Rituals

speak the language of the soul. With or without words, rituals chart the paths that have led to the present moment and the curtails that await in the future. Through music, gesture, color, and offerings, the elements of the feeling-body and soul are nourished.

Funeral and Memorial Services

are sacred spaces where we pause to uplift the life of a loved human in their most basic and profound nature. Collective morning for what is loved, is grieved, helping the hearts of those who remain. Through stories, artifacts, the smallest of details, along with the grandest of desires, they are reminisced and said goodbye.

A good ceremony captures the values of the person who lived them.

A great ceremony lights the way for the one who is new to being dead, to get to where they are going.

A series of rituals and ceremonies

may be your preference. Directly after the death, you may well choose a smaller inner circle gathering, inviting in what requires immediate expression and holding.

After several days or weeks, the inner family circle may possibly feel the time was right to gather with their larger community for a public commemoration.

Six to twelve months following, an additional ceremony could mark your person’s passage into the field of the ancestors.
