A Living Funeral Ceremony

Scribble 5541 York Blvd, Los Angeles

A community offering at the close of eclipse season. Join us for a Living Funeral Ceremony: a ritual space to release what no longer serves and step into what’s next. A Living Funeral Ceremony is an immersive meditative experience that encourages participants to face their own mortality.
