Thursday's Dead Serious Thoughts: Thinking about how to give an accurate representation of who you are... or are not when all are listening.

It is very important, in my opinion, that a funeral service accurately represent who someone was, can provide the community with a safe container to grieve, and is an "initiation" for close loved ones to recognize their new role in the world without us.

I know that grieving relatives do the best they can to have a service that represents the person, but sometimes, especially for those who do not have an active religious affiliation, finding someone to officiate a funeral can be challenging.

If a funeral does not accurately represent the person who died, it can feel hollow and leave those grieving feeling empty and disconnected. The easiest way to obtain a meaningful connection to the deceased is to have the person who speaks on their behalf be someone who knew them or at leased focused on who they were, if possible.

Who would you choose to speak about you at your funeral? Would it be clergy/someone from your religious affiliation, a dear friend, or someone specialized in death work?

I know, you'll be dead so it won't matter to you, but having a degree of peaceful closure will matter to those left behind.

A few things about my Death Wishes course surprised me. One was the number of COUPLES who signed up. There were three married couples and 4 women, also married but who came alone.

Neither is "better", but it just took me by surprise that so many couples would want to do this work together. Perhaps "want" is a stretch. I suspect my Mom "strongly encouraged" (i.e.: voluntold) my Dad to attend. That said, he organized his wishes and clearly enjoyed the connections he made with others after a session or two. 🥸

Then there's my own husband-my biggest supporter. He listens and encourages every experience I've encountered on this journey. He thinks the work I do is making a huge difference. But do you think I can get him to write down just one stinking' detail about his final resting place? 😑

So believe me when I say, I understand that not everyone is ready to plan for or talk about their own death. Maybe they never will be.

I know that this course isn't for everyone.

But it might be for you.

If you've read this far, perhaps you are intrigued.

If you are feeling called. Listen to that voice.

If you are curious, you are ready.

This class will prepare you not just for your own death, but for others deaths too. It will help you view dying with greater reverence.

Whether you come alone or with a spouse, you will be a part of a group of people who are all looking for more. And this is where you'll find it.

And although death may still be sad, it doesn't have to be unbearable.

I named my 6 week class "Death Wishes-an act of Love disguised as a binder" when I started. The binder really IS an act of love.

But after 6 weeks of community and conversations, sharing stories, perspectives and safe vulnerability, I knew it was more.

The evaluations I received said that yes, the information was presented in a helpful way, it was all in one place and accessible. But what stood out, that wasn't advertised (and was honestly my favorite part) and what people walked away with was the safety to talk about death & dying.

Their own personal, sometimes painful, experiences.

The rituals that can be used to ease into accepting a situation.

Some conversations were open, others brought on by guided meditations.

Having these conversations, along with the work in the binder, gave the attendees tools. Tools for when friends and family become sick before us. Tools to be more comfortable talking about death and dying.

Death Wishes: An act of love disguised as a binder. (and more) begins July 9th-Aug 13th. 6-8:30 pm every Thursday. Binders, tools for living and dying and great snacks provided.

Even knowing what needs to be down as a Death Educator, End of Life Doula, and Sacred Death Care Guide, I still have things I want to update and better plan for with my own death.

I have details that I have in my head envisioning my dying process (if I am lucky enough to have that opportunity) and what I hope things will look like for my services.

But I know that I want to leave a meaningful legacy.

I want to write more letters to my loved ones.

I want to order a beautiful shroud to be buried in.

I want to clear a spot on my property to be buried when I die and make sure to get all my ducks in a row with the town and not leave my family scrambling for those details.

And I do not have a terminal diagnosis.

I have much of my own work done. Passwords & bank accounts in a binder (merging over to an online site). ✔️

Benefits listed. ✔️

Power of Attorney assigned.✔️

Will and Trust complete.✔️

Letters written to my loved ones.✔️

Even for me, knowing about what needs to be done, it was a challenge finding the time to get it done.

Wouldn't it be nice to face these things head on with a small group of like-minded individuals?

I have the knowledge and understanding of why approaching things regarding death, dying, grief, and loss are so important. And will share that with you.

I will guid, support, encourage, and hold a safe space as you prepare for your own death.

You don't have to be dying to do this work. As a matter of fact, it's better to do it now, when you're alive and well and have a clear head.

It will change the way you approach death and dying.

And living.

The next session of Death Wishes will be starting on July 9th through August 13th. Every Thursday from 6-8:30 pm.

Thursday's Dead Serious Thoughts, brought to you by inner wisdom.

Anthony Chene productions creates videos that are posted on YouTube of Near Death Experiences. Various guests who have experienced NDE's have told their stories via these videos. Jonathan Ashford was the guest on the last video I watched.

A statement that he made stuck with me. Challenges help us grow and hopefully view things from another perspective. But taking a deep look at what we desire equally serves as a litmus test as well. What do we desire? And why? And what does that teach us about ourselves? 🤯

We aren't here in earth school for a very long time. But we are here in whatever time we're given to learn and evolve.

Please share a lesson you have learned from your time here so far. Not to be judged. Just to connect.

Because love and connection are vital.

Thursday's Dead Serious Thoughts:

It is rare that anyone is completely prepared for death. It is hard to think of everything, even as a death educator and end-of-life practitioner. I always have my eyes and ears open to new ideas, thoughts, or ways to do things around death & dying. I feel pretty prepared. But not 100% because I keep tweaking things that don't feel aligned and that sometimes leaves things undone until I figure it out.

But it is progress over perfection.

Planning for your death doesn't mean figuring it all out at once. It means having the fortitude to look at the hard things and plan the best you can, not unlike any other important thing you plan in your life: vacations, meals, a grocery list, maybe important work conversations.

Death planning is no different. Maybe you have a place that you've stored all of your passwords. Yay you! That's something! Perhaps you've thought about where you want your ashes spread- That is two things. 1) that you want to be cremated and 2) where that will be. Again, Yay you!

Not many people have their death plans (or Death Wishes as I like to call them!) planned out because they don't know where to start, what it entails, and to be totally honest, it is hard to carve out time to do something you really don't want to think about.

So start small. Do you want to be cremated? Buried in a mushroom suit, or composted. If none of those, then what? Write it in your note section of your phone.

Keep thinking about the things that would make it easier for those you would leave behind. Every little decision helps.

Thursday's Dead Serious Thoughts, reminding you that some secrets are best kept secret. 🤫

Do we all put our best face/foot forward as often as we can? I think so. Generally, we want people to see us in a favorable as possible light. While we're alive, all of our (dirty little) secrets remain just that- secret.

But what if you die suddenly? What if someone suddenly has access to the things you were able to keep private when you were alive? Who will find those things and what questions will be left behind?

💻 Perhaps there is a questionable browser history that should best be erased?

🚬Maybe a little stash of pot you enjoyed on occasion yet had to hide from your family.

💳 A secret credit card that paid for items that just magically appeared in your home.

📔The "angry journal" that you broke out whenever you needed a place to vent that, taken out of context, would hurt feelings.

🎁🫨And let's not forget the contents of the second drawer of your bedside stand....

Do you have someone who can go in and do a quick "once over" before family/friends come in to go through your things?

Maybe this post isn't one to name names (or the things you'd like kept private), but you can certainly be thinking about who you could choose, and write down somewhere who that is and have a quick conversation.

Not all of us have "secrets" but if you can't change the guilty pleasures that are best kept under wraps, at least choose your death-wing wo/man to will cover your sixes. You're welcome.

Thursday's Dead Serious Thoughts: Mysteriously revealing things about yourself that you have kept close to the vest.

Yes, it is kind of a funny image - a revealing tattoo emerging at an untimely moment. But that said, and leaning into the question: what is that something for you? I actually went on chatGPT and asked it to help me design something! Now, to figure out where it should go....

What does your secret tattoo reveal?

Thursdays Dead Serious Thoughts: Do you want to be remembered for your humor or your salacious dance moves? Or both?

Not all of us are philanthropic, Academy Award or Pulitzer Prize winners, but we all have our strengths and qualities that we are proud of (or that make us subtly smirk). Do you have a talent, quality, or feature about yourself that you would like to be known for?

Take a moment to fill-in-the-blanks to highlight the things about ourselves that make us smile. Have fun with it. Let it make you think and smile as you share!

Thursday's Dead Serious Thoughts: Looking at the pre-grief grief.

Knowing that you, or someone you love is nearing the end of life brings up impossible emotions. Emotions that we deflect and bury and say that we will deal with later. But often, the feelings aren't effectively put in a box to be opened at a later time. They are ever present and unknowingly exposing themselves at any given moment. Numbness. Overwhelm. Unwillingness to be still. It's real.

It can feel like a betrayal to think about not only what your life will be like after your loved one has passed, but also simply that there's even a reality of that world. But questions like, "How am I going to do life without them?" feels like a question way too big to fathom because it is often accompanied by a necessity to cherish and stay as present as possible in the time left.

There is no right or one-size fits-all answer.

My thoughts are: if they are open, have a discussion with your loved one about it. The dying can feel very alone if no one wants to talk about the elephant in the room: their death. What are their/your fears? What will you each miss most? Can you find a way to "communicate" through signs, dreams, and symbols?

If they are not open to the discussion, find someone who is and share your heart. It won't be a miraculous fix, but it could take a layer of pressure off as you verbalize your truths.

In what ways have you or can you handle anticipatory grief? Thank you for sharing.
