What is an End of Life Doula?

Doula’s in general support the circle of life in both birth and death.  In birth doula’s play a role in bringing a new life into the world.  An end-of-life doula is a companion to the dying, offering the patient and their loved one’s the support necessary in the difficult end of life stage. 

Incorporating an end-of-life doula can occur when planning far in the future to have a plan in place for your own wishes, or for patients whose needs are more immediate.  Engaging a doula into the finale of a loved one’s life allows for more quality time between family members and less time spent on details.

The final phase of life does not need to be a dark feared journey.  Let it be a journey of guidance, comfort, love and fulfillment.

Individual Reiki Sessions – Reiki is an ancient energy healing that originated in Japan. It is a non-invasive technique to promote healing by releasing congestion from energy centers to enable a good flow of energy in the body. It is administered by "laying of hands" on major energy centers (chakras) of the body and is based on the idea of channeling universal light and love through a practitioner to a client. – Reiki Session $60

Group Meditation & Sound Bath – Sound bath meditation is the use of guided meditation, singing bowls, gongs, drums and other percussive instruments to induce a relaxed state.

Group meditations can be setup on request for 2-12 individuals. I can create a specific meditation track for your group or ad-hoc sessions. Meditation sessions $20/pp

Work With Me

As a certified End-of-Life Doula, I work with terminally ill patients and families who are searching for new ways of managing the difficulty of end of life. A critical focus includes preparing and engaging everyone in dealing with terminal illness through transition. End-of-life planning is crucial to ensure those that are dying transition to their journey home on their own terms.

As a certified Holistic Health Advocate, I help facilitate patients and families who are in need of healing unresolved issues by identifying ways to live life authentically with tolerance and love. Healing unresolved issues during this time is critical to a peaceful transition.

As a certified Reiki Level II Practitioner, Sound Healer & Vibrational Therapist I bring the power of Reiki, Meditation, Music and Sound for healing. The use of these modalities, along with aromatherapy allows an opportunity for the patient to have a sacred space to connect, to heal and create a sense of peace and control at the end of their life.

My Why

I have always had a desire inside of me to be of greater good and service. Although I have been very successful in my business career for 35+ years, I always felt as though something was missing. It became clearer to me through my own life’s journey where I was needed most. Now is the time to reinvent myself and redirect my energy to helping others on their own individual path of growth and healing. I intentionally live in non-judgement and heart centered love toward others.

Location

Divine Connection is located at 185 Lincoln Street, Suite 310A. This location provides for personal consultation as well as individual sound and vibrational therapy sessions and group meditation sound baths. I look forward to sharing this magical space with you.

FAQ

Reiki is an energy healing technique that uses the universal life force energy to balance the subtle energies within our bodies to heal and contribute to balanced physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual being. Reiki promotes relaxation, reduces stress & anxiety, awakens intuition & self-awareness, strengthens the immune system, relieves pain & discomfort, clears blockages & suppressed emotions, helps detach energetic cords, and provides many other benefits.

Sound healing therapy uses aspects of music to improve physical & emotional well-being. Techniques vary but all involve the application of sound waves and harmonic vibrations to the body through the use of instruments, including the human voice. The most common and basic use of sound is for meditation and relaxation and has been known to help treat such conditions as stress, anxiety, high blood pressure & sleep disorders.

A death doula is a person trained to help the dying one and their family with the death process. The doula offers knowledge, wisdom, and insight, promotes healthy discussion and planning, and advocates for the wishes of the dying person.

In much the same way as a birth doula helps with the birthing process, the end-of-life doula comes alongside and walks with them through the process, helping the family recognize death as a natural part of life.
