Workshops & Training – End of Life Initiatives

Ease and confidence are often gained through preparation for the event ahead.  By completing of our end-of-life documents, contemplating and envisioning our own death, and making decisions about our after-death care, we lessen fear about our final days and also offer a gift to our loved ones. We leave them with the information they will need to fulfill our wishes, thus relieving them of the tension and stress that may arise when trying to guess what we would have wanted.

The problem is we think we have time.  ~ Jack Kornfield

Bring CEOLT To Your Community

One of our many dreams is to train and empower communities and groups (faith communities, clubs, schools, etc.) to learn about and prepare for death. When a group of people come together for the good, so much can happen. We at Center for End of Life Transitions are happy to bring our courses to you – to your community or group.  We have done this with various communities including the School of Integrated Living, Heritage Unitarian Universalist Church, Jubilee, and many others. We have witnessed the power of these offerings when taught amongst a circle of friends.

Contact us to discuss scheduling and pricing, or for individual consultations and tailored group trainings.

*We offer discounted prices if you host and manage signups.

Presentations

Sometimes, the best first step is to have us do a presentation about Center for End of Life Transitions, after-death care, and home funerals. Our sister organization, Carolina Memorial Sanctuary, is a conservation and green cemetery; we also offer a combined presentation which covers both projects. Presentations are free of charge.

Testimonials

  • Yesterday, Jane’s body lay in state at Ruth’s house. No more Roman Senator. Jane looked like a Buddha. Intensity of focus suggested she was learning to walk or fly or swim the channels of light, while the vigil of the living continued around her.

  • What we did was the difference, for my family, in incurring debt and remaining solvent, and in saying an intimate goodbye in a language we all understood, as opposed to saying goodbye in the mortuary chapel of kindly paid professionals.
