We like to get together.

Remembering and Being Remembered - A Willow Workshop - Part of the 3rd Annual Swan Song Festival in partnership with Community Deathcare Canada

Presented by Willow EOL Educators™, Karen Hendrickson & Jo-Anne Haun – Death Doula Network of BC
October 16, 2021, from 9:00 to 11:00 AM PDT
(see what time that is in your location)

In Remembering and Being Remembered we’ll look at the who, what, how and why of remembering. Why do you remember people who have died? How do you remember them and how are you impacted by either remembering or not remembering? This workshop will also remind us that we each have an impact on the lives of others.

In this workshop you will:

• Dig into the heart of why you remember those who have died.
• Explore what it is about being remembered that matters to you.
• Be called to action to honor the memory of your deceased in ways that work for you.
• Consider the impact your deceased have had on you and that you may have on others when you die.

Conscious Health, Personal Care, and Final Wishes

Presented by Willow EOL Educator™, Jacqui Williams
October 19, 2021, from 6:30 to 8:30 PM AEST
(see what time that is in your location)

Either consciously or unconsciously, our past informs our present. Your previous experiences with illness, dying, death, grief, and how someone was cared for after they died—including any planning that was or wasn’t in place—have undoubtedly shaped your personal desires and informed your sense of what’s possible and what’s not.

We all have hopes and fears about what might happen (to us and/or the people we leave behind) in the time leading up to our death, at the moment of our death, and after we die. Based on three tools from Willow’s holistic and pragmatic workbook, 7 Tools for Making Sense of Life & Death, Conscious Health, Personal Care and Final Wishes will ensure that your choices around end-of-life planning reflects your values and priorities. Whether you have days or decades to live, thinking about and preparing for your death will change how you die and inspire you to live your best life now.

In this workshop you will:

• Learn how past experiences with death and dying can shape your own end-of-life plans.
• Discover what is most important to you regarding your health and personal care wishes.
• Become inspired to get into action around articulating your final wishes.
