Honored to host this group session through Tara Mandala on September 19th, 2023. We met Tuesday nights at 5:30p – 7:00pm PDT, and Fridays for discussion, for 8 weeks.

With warm hearts, a group of 48 came together, journeyed through our Spiritual Care Directive and nourished each other in planning and training as practitioners for the time of dying.

In this 8-week online course, we applied our practices for dying and death, identifying advocates and dharma friends, expanding our abilities to communicate our needs, learning more about our options and resources, and how to be creative and curious in what really touches our hearts.

The Spiritual Care Directive is a 10-part comprehensive template that inspires you and prompts you to write down your wishes as an act of kindness for your family and friends. In group process, we worked through this directive, starting by creating a Dharma Vision and journeying all the way through the 49 days following death.

As an End of Life Coach, I presented this course not as a teacher of the dharma, but as a gatherer of dharma friends to hold safe space to share, inspire, and develop community on the topic of dying.

Registration is now closed.
