Gather in community with us as we discuss death and dying with Natalie Roset. Nat has been a palliative care nurse who has been supporting people through the dying process for over 20 years. Conversations about death and dying can be challenging, but we invite you to open your heart and mind as we travel with Nat into a realm many of us prefer to avoid or tip toe around in our day to day lives. 

Nat provides a clinician’s perspective and also brings warmth, compassion and a sense of reverence and soulfulness to this topic. We hope you’ll enjoy this exploration of the great journey we must all undertake as much as we did.

We chat about:

• How diagnosis of a terminal illness is a profound soul event 
• Why we need to face and be present to our own mortality
• Navigating conversations about death and dying with children
• How facing the uncertainty and mystery of death can change the way we live
• Different models for supporting death and dying beyond the biomedical model
• The importance of community, rituals and traditions in supporting grief, death and dying
• The value of acknowledging hopelessness
• Supporting a loved one who is dying or experiencing grief over the loss of a loved one
• The inner wisdom of our bodies in grief, loss and dying
• Grief as a capacity and skill how to become grief literate

… and so much more!
