Education

You are invited to a supportive, and meditative retreat in a uniquely beautiful setting to do deep work in the company of others; contemplate your own death and the death of significant others.

Hosted by Leeann Tourtillott, Karen Lohmann, and Hilarie Hauptman, we will listen, write, draw, sing and dance. Prepare for guided conversations and rituals around the intimate topic of death and what most matters to us. As a group we will look at the environmental, social, and spiritual aspects of dying.

Explore what happens to your body when you die. We will cover legal alternative disposition methods; Aquamation, Natural Organic Reduction, as well as conservation, green and natural burial (vs vault-casket-embalm). Experience and deepen your understanding of home vigils, shrouding and altar building. Together we will explore this universal reality with both depth and lightness, creating a safe space for embodied practices and preparations. Come into community, be held in natural beauty, ponder death.
