(a)Wake presents: A Living Funeral Ceremony & Death Salon for Deathworkers

Deathworkers need tending, too. This offering is for the spaceholders. Join us for a virtual Living Funeral Ceremony followed by a Death Salon and be in community with others who walk with grief & death.

​A Living Funeral Ceremony is an immersive meditative experience that encourages participants to face their own mortality. Through engaging in ritual and guidance through a death visualization–contemplating your own memorial as you imagine letting go of your earthly self–participants are invited to “die before you die, to live while you’re alive.”

​This ceremonial experience provides a safe and supportive space to confront fears around death and impermanence, while also fostering a deeper connection to life’s fragility and beauty. Often compared to the experience of ego death, this ritual leaves many with a renewed sense of purpose and a profound appreciation for the present moment.
