"I made a wish list for sitting with the dying: Treat each person as if they are the most important person in the world Offer as much love, time , understanding and kindness as possible Use gentle techniques – touch, music, deep listening and meditation – to soothe pain and fear. “These skills became the essence of Soul Midwifery… a blend of old and modern ideas. “Soul Midwives are non medical, holistic and spiritual companions to the dying and their loved ones."
3 things to offer the dying - the soul midwives way - Final Fling
You have come to the right place, and we are glad you are here. This is a safe place to share stories of love and loss, devastating grief, exhausting care-giving, memorials, advanced directives, mourning, hope, and despair. We want to hear about about what you wish you had known or done differently, what you wish those around you had known or done differently, and what went right. We will never tell you to move on or find closure. "What cannot be said will be wept." Sappho
