Death Becomes Us 

​

 

This is an immersive 8 month course that is spaced out over a year, it is an invitation into your death, life, grief & the deep wells of what is to feel & integrate the story of your death as part of your aliveness. This group meets seasonally in rhythmic pace with nature & the distinct energies that each season of spring, summer, fall & winter bring. Very much guided by the elementals, plants, animals & land spirits that offer different medicines for us to step deeper into & support us. 

​

I am here to walk with you, journey by your side and help you create your own intimate relationship with death and in turn your aliveness and what it feels like to full embody the knowing of your death & the way that shapes every facet of your life and how you move thru this world.

 

Thru your own wisdom that you bring, lots of experiential modalities based in the body and the spirit we will adventure together in how to die & grieve the peoples, places & things we love so dearly and the gift we give others when we start living from a place of dying. 

 

Here are the modules for each month and themes we will deepen into together…

 ​

-March & April: Remembering How To Feel:   

​This module is starting with the body and remembering how to trust the intuitive impulses of what you feel. This module is meant to create space for you to come into deep contact with the range of your emotions and what turns you on, what turns you off, what what blocks you from feeling, what opens you back up and the way feeling & staying with death & other hard truths can start to widen your capacity to change and trusting the unknown. We will explore this thru: somatic & internal body work parts. We will work in tandem with the slow openings of spring, sprouting, rain & the quiet awakening of our senses coming back online again. 

​

-June & July: Remembering How To Live:

This module is all about your aliveness and what brings you alive, what makes you feel most in alignment with your values and what matters the most in being alive here on earth when you are not guaranteed any specific amount of time at all. We will explore this thru death bed meditation, group ritual of your celebration of life & writing your eulogy. These are really sacred & powerful practices that invite in the widening of what aliveness actually is when we are faced with the end of our lives. ​

We will work in tandem with the vital energies of summer, blooming, erotic & creation energy. 

​​​​

-September & October: Remembering How To Grieve​: 

​This module is all about remembering how to grieve and access where your grief lives in your body and how to move it as part of being alive and not getting overwhelmed or frozen by the waters within you. We will explore this thru calling in your ancestors/spirit guides to support you in expressing your grief and building relationship with a waterway near you as a physical place to give your grief too and have it be transformed by the elemental of water. We will work in tandem with the quieting o, going within, slowing down, laying fallow and death energies of fall. 

​​​​​​

-December & January: Remembering How To Die: ​

This module ​is all about weaving in all of the past modules & integrating the news of your death and  what is means to say goodbye from this place. What is it to feel the grief, praise and aliveness in the death of others and how does this shape our lives going forward?  We will explore this by doing a group farewell death ceremony and getting clear on what reminds us of being in death energy when we get distracted, lose focus or think we have all the time. We will create individual death care plans to support you going forward in your embodiment of your own death. We will work in tandem with the sessional energy of stillness, hibernation, composting, rest, letting go and death energy of winter.
