As a proud member of NORBC, I ask you to please sign and share the survey 🙏🏻
🌿
“NORBC is a not-for-profit group, seeking to advocate for the legalization of Natural Organic Reduction (NOR), also known as terramation or human composting, in our home province of BC.
🌿
With this survey, we hope to collect public input on NOR as a disposition option in BC in order to gauge public awareness and to lobby the government of BC to amend the Cremation, Interment and Funeral Services Act to allow natural organic reduction.
🌿
We believe that all British Columbians should have the choice to dispose of their body through natural organic reduction at facilities that operate in a safe and sustainable manner.”

🌱 Curious and willing to know more about NOR? Go to norbc.ca.

“For our tomorrow, they gave their today.”
🙏🏻
“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.”

Let us remember all those who courageously gave their lives for us today.

🫖✨ I am full of joy from hosting for the second time, “Tea with Death Doula” at the Comox Library, surrounded by an incredible group who brought their lively and cheeky spirits to the conversation about death and dying. From the moment Miriam poured our first cup of tea, a sense of openness and warmth filled the space.

🌿 We explored natural burial options in BC, including Natural Organic Reduction, and it was truly uplifting to witness the collective relief as participants discovered compassionate and sustainable alternatives for afterlife care. There were even tears of relief as fears surrounding death began to dissolve, all thanks to heartfelt communication and support.

💎 It was inspiring to see how sharing our thoughts and experiences empowered everyone to approach this topic with curiosity rather than fear. Thank you to all who participated for their courage and vulnerability. Your legacy RIPPLES! Together, we are creating a community that supports each other on this important journey, inviting in understanding and compassion as we navigate life’s final chapter.

See you next month!

Thank you for joining us for a cup of tea!

⏳Time is of the essence!! Compassion, presence, and quick action are essential especially when a long-term client reaches out in distress.

When I received the email with the urgent subject line “need held now pls could cou,” I felt an immediate sense of responsibility and concern. (She is usually VERY articulate!). Within two minutes, I attempted to reach out via call and text, but knowing the urgency of the situation, I quickly grabbed my daughter, who has first aid training, we headed out to arrive within 7 minutes of the email.

Once we got at my client’s home, it became obvious just how disoriented and scared she was. The atmosphere was heavy with confusion, as she struggled to articulate her needs amidst the chaos of her emotions of fear and frustration. Recognizing the situation’s gravity, I immediately took charge, remaining calm to instill a sense of safety for her.

🚑After calling 911, we focused on keeping her grounded while the paramedics arrived. We checked her vitals, offering supportive words to reassure her, and cleared out a path for Paramedics. My daughter’s presence was invaluable; her calm demeanor and exceptional first aid knowledge added an extra layer of comfort during this crisis.

In those moments, I was reminded of the foundational purpose of my role: to provide support not just through the end-of-life process, but also in times of acute distress. Being there for my client in her time of need reinforced the trust and confidence we had built over the months. It’s a profound honour to accompany someone through their journey, especially when they are feeling vulnerable and afraid.

⚜️An eye opener for her as quality of life is the ultimate factor for her. The foundation we built throughly for her is the one reason why the quick response and ability to “know”; that’s not my “Pat”.

I am pleased to announce that Dynamic Journey has donated the “Wind Phone” to the Courtenay Civic Cemetery. This meaningful installation offers a unique opportunity for individuals to connect with their loved ones who have passed, fostering healing and remembrance within our community. The cemetery is currently updating the grounds to incorporate the Wind Phone, ensuring it is a fitting and serene space for reflection.

The grand opening is tentatively scheduled for November, marking a significant step in our commitment to supporting those navigating grief and loss. We believe this initiative will provide solace to many and reinforce the importance of community in the journey of healing.

Thank you for your continued support as we work together to make a positive impact. 🙏🏻

It’s true !! Did you know ?!! 🧐

As a Death Educator, discussing what a dead body is and the natural processes of dying is often seen as taboo, leading some to label these conversations as potentially traumatic. However, it’s crucial to understand that talking about the physical realities of death—such as what a dead body looks like—does not have to be traumatic.

In fact, these discussions can demystify death, making it feel more approachable and less frightening. By sharing knowledge about the biological aspects of death, such as how the body changes, what to expect during the dying process, and how to care for a deceased loved one, I aim to normalize the experience rather than sensationalize it.

When individuals are informed about what to expect, they can more easily process their emotions and fears. This forms a crucial part of the grieving process, allowing people to feel more prepared and less anxious about death. By openly discussing what a dead body is and what it means, we can reduce fear and stigma, fostering a healthier understanding of life and loss.

🔱 Facts are facts
🫶🏻 Stories of real life experiences matter

📚 Fictional stories lack the depth and authenticity, which can create a sense of detachment from the reality of loss.

🪞 Reflecting on the profound words of Louise L. Hay and David Kessler, it’s very clear that the journey of life and death are deeply intertwined with our connections to others.

🪽 As we navigate life’s complexities, let’s remember the importance of companionship, especially as we face inevitable transitions. Together, we can foster conversations about life and death that honour our experiences and help us embrace the end of life with love and understanding.

🤍 You don’t have to die alone!

🧐 How do you support your loved ones in these discussions?
