Continue building your foundation as a Deathwalker by exploring and honoring your own grief.

To care for others approaching death and moving through profound loss, we must understand and honor our own grief.  First, we explore what we have already been carrying for Death, our unexamined fears and beliefs about Death & grief, how we are impacted by collective & ambiguous loss, and the wounds/blessings of ancestral grief.  Last, we then turn our attention to how ritual and ceremony support the building of a trusting relationship with death and help us honor our grief.

This course includes:

• Over 2 hours of recorded & written content broken down into understandable units,
• Custom self-study pages (5), 1 per module, to give you the resources that will flesh out Jade's curriculum, including TedTalks, articles, documentaries, songs, and book recommendations, and
• Practical exercises that accompany each module so you can continue to deepen these skills hands-on.

This is the second unit of the Farewell Education Deathwalker Apprenticeship. Upon completion of this course, you will have begun deepening your relationship with grief by practicing grief mapping, comprehensively explored the ways we grieve and approach grieve collectively, begun to build your relationship with ancestors and spirit guides, and deepened your grief-tending practices with ritual and ceremony.
