Shanen Baures - The Journey Within, End of Life Doula

Shanen Baures - The Journey Within, End of Life Doula There is no greater joy for me than to bring peace and stability during illness and at the end of life.

Providing peace and stability is my greatest joy in working with family. Allow me to serve you and your family to reduce overwhelm and any anxiety that is going on. Being a certified end-of-life doula and spiritual life coach enables me to bring deep assistance to you; I will enable you to focus on your family and loved ones...Let me take care of everything else! End-of-life doulas complement the work of medical professionals and hospice care, enhancing the overall quality of life during a person's final days. As a professional doula and ordained minister, I have the training and ability to remain present and grounded in the moment, providing a stabilizing force as well as a calming presence. This helps to reduce anxiety and can bring a sense of peace, often achieved through mindfulness practices such as meditation, prayer, and other comforting techniques. The sense of protective advocacy that is my calling leads me to educate families about what to expect during the dying process, demystifying the experience, and also causes me to remain vigilant that the desires and rights of the dying are upheld. Dignity requires that we work to facilitate a death that aligns with personal values and wishes. Overall, I can play a crucial role in providing holistic, compassionate care to individuals and families during one of life's most profound transitions.

WORD FOR THE DAY —
The more deeply we care, the more present we become.
When we feel connected to the people in our lives — especially in their most tender seasons — we don’t turn away.
We lean in.
We sit close.
We stand gently for what matters.
Love at the end of life is not passive.
It is steady.
It is courageous.
It is sacred.
What we cherish, we accompany with honor.
— Compassionate End-of-Life Support

The Journey Within – End-of-Life Doula Support
✨ Word for the Day ✨
At the end of life, what matters most isn’t what we accomplished — it’s whether we truly lived.
As an End-of-Life Doula, I see how powerful it is when someone has loved deeply, spoken their truth, and honored what made them come alive.
The world doesn’t need more busy people.
It needs more present hearts.
Live fully now — so when the time comes, you leave with peace. 💛
If you or someone you love needs compassionate support during end-of-life planning or transition, I’m here.

Facing the truth doesn’t promise change,
but it gently opens the door to peace.
In life’s final season, honesty offered with love
can bring comfort, connection, and grace.

Word for the Day — Journey Within LLC
Learning to pause and be still is essential on our spiritual path. In stillness, we open space to truly listen—to ourselves, to our intuition, and to the guidance life offers. When we respond from presence and awareness, we move forward with clarity, gratitude, and alignment with our highest purpose.

Learning to pause and be still is essential, especially at the end of life. In the quiet moments, we create space to listen deeply—to breath, to the heart, to what is being asked in this sacred time. Stillness allows us to respond with presence, compassion, and gratitude for each moment as it unfolds.

— WORD FOR THE DAY —
To truly love others, we must slow down enough to notice and feel what’s around us. When we rush through life consumed by our to-do lists, we miss the chance to connect with the hearts beside us.
