What if you could alleviate your fear, apprehension and denial about your certain future death in exchange for living more fully and consciously for all your remaining years?
This 3-day onsite retreat is a life passage journey connecting us to our collective roots, unearthing how you can live more fully NOW by exploring and preparing for death.
Living fully in the present, while also preparing for death is not a new trendy concept. Rather it is rooted deeply in ancient and spiritual practices and teachings from all times.
Journey into Conscious Dying increases the fullness of our human experience, decreases suffering, and increases healing in all relationships.
We will explore impermanence and the simple basic human, intimate needs for holding, listening, openness, forgiveness, and love. You will experience deep, compassionate practices that create emotional congruence, completion, and integration in important aspects of life: mental, emotional, and spiritual.
We will explore our dreams, hopes, and fears surrounding death, through dialogue, one-on-one engagement, and group practices and ritual – including a Grief Ceremony supported by the power of live music.
Our practices uplift and unify your spirit, soul, and body and alleviate the profound sense of separation and isolation so that we can live fully in this life.
You will leave feeling refreshed and renewed by your sense of a balanced relationship within the cycle of life. You will be more confident to share your experience with others, especially those you love. And you will discover death as the friend and generous teacher it is.
Death is truly our teacher,
so as much as we can,
we practice and prepare for dying.
