DeathWalk - (Please read group description to get a full understanding of this event.) I am a death & end-of-life doula, in deathwork for the last nine years, and I'm inviting you to walk & talk with me for a lower price than my usual fees, in an effort to provide death & grief support in my community. TW: topics such as death, dying, infant loss, sudden death, cancer, pet loss, terminal illness, Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD), grief, and much more may arise in this group.
Limit 5 per walk*. If you require a helper to accompany you, please reach out. All are welcome! Mobility aids can be accommodated (wheelchair, scooter, etc) but bear in mind this is a walking group & plan accordingly. [If walking is outside your capabilities but you still need doula support, please don't hesitate to reach out!]
We will walk between Santa Monica & Venice, on a smooth & flat cement walkway. This walk will pass the Santa Monica Pier & there is a view of the ocean the entire walk. Anyone may turn around to leave the group at any time, as needed.
PLEASE park in the 15 minutes before start time so no one is waiting - walk begins promptly at 6:30am. PLEASE wear sunscreen & appropriate footwear. PLEASE bring any items you may need such as water, sunglasses, a hat, layers, chapstick, etc. We want to be comfy & undistracted so conversation can flow!
DeathWalk is a group for discussion, support, guidance, Q & A, and especially listening to each other. It is also for those who may not be ready to talk yet but need community to support loss.
*5 person per walk limit is so that I can be attentive to every individual present & provide individual support & feedback during the time we have.
Let's get our steps in & get into it. ~m
