New Workshop
Exploring a Completed Life
This workshop is designed for adults in their later years (though younger participants are welcome) who are ready to engage in thoughtful self-reflection and a desire to approach their remaining years with intention and peace. This ongoing group offers a supportive, open space to explore these tender and practical matters together.
​
Core to the meetings will be my sharing of the years of expertise I have around formulating effective health care advance directives (including dementia directives), options for planning a funeral that reflects your values, options for one's end-of-life autonomy, and how to thoughtfully prepare an Exit File that will support those who may need to handle your affairs.
​
Underpinning the practical to-do list are the psychological, philosophical, and spiritual aspects of a life well-lived --self-acceptance, quality of relationships, meaning, addressing regrets, contentment, and possibly surrender. We will read articles, and I'll share exercises to help illuminate the deeper issues we all carry. Having the courage to face all of these aspects is the only prerequisite for the class.
