Event - 20240929Blessing Your Journey: Exploring And Empowering The End Of Life
Wednesday, September 25 (Dinner) to Sunday, September 29 (Breakfast)
Held at Indralaya retreat center
With Leeann Tourtillott, Karen Lohmann and Hilarie Hauptman
You are invited to a supportive, and meditative retreat in a uniquely beautiful setting to do deep work in the company of others; contemplate your own death and the death of significant others.
We will listen, write, draw, sing and dance. Prepare for guided conversations and rituals around the intimate topic of death and what most matters to us. As a group we will look at the environmental, social, and spiritual aspects of dying.
Explore what happens to your body when you die. We will cover legal alternative disposition methods; Aquamation, Natural Organic Reduction, as well as conservation, green and natural burial (vs vault-casket-embalm). Come experience and deepen your understanding of home vigils, shrouding and altar building. Together we will explore this universal reality with both depth and lightness, creating a safe space for embodied practices and preparations. Come into community, be held in natural beauty, ponder death.
Past retreat participants shared: A profound experience. I learned so much about myself and my relationship to death and dying. The best growth experience ever. You gave us so much to think about, reflect upon and envision for the future. A beautifully organized, lovingly led retreat!
