SUMMARY:The Good Death Book Club Experience FREE 12-Month Death and Dying Course
DESCRIPTION:According to a recent AARP study\, there are over 52 million caregivers in the United States right now—and 70% of them say they are overwhelmed. Every single day\, I receive messages from current and former caregivers who say:\n“I wish I had this knowledge when I was caring for my loved one.”\nOr:\n“The Doulagivers training is helping me more than I can say.” \nThe truth is:\nWe will all have a caregiving story. \nLet’s make sure yours is one filled with support\, empowerment\, and peace. \nThat’s why I created The GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB Experience: Death and Dying Course—a free\, live\, 12-month educational journey through my bestselling book The Good Death: A Guide for Supporting Your Loved One Through the End of Life. \nWhat It Is:\nEach month\, we explore one chapter of The Good Death together. \nYou’ll receive:\n-A live End of life teaching course with me\, Suzanne B. O’Brien\, RN\n-A guided workbook and downloadable companion guide\n-A group discussion and experiential exercise\n-A full 12 month Death and Dying Course for free \nWho It’s For: \n-Current and future caregivers ( all of us )\n-Death Doulas\, aspiring Death Doulas\, medical professionals\n-Individuals seeking grief healing and emotional support\n-Anyone who wants spiritual inspiration and empowerment around death\, aging\, and life itself \nWhy It Matters:\nDeath is 100% guaranteed—and yet\, our modern culture has stripped away the education and sacredness that used to surround it. \nThis lack of awareness is contributing to unnecessary fear\, trauma\, and prolonged suffering and grief. \nBut death is not the enemy. \nIt is our greatest teacher about how to truly live. \nWhen we return death to its place as a natural\, sacred transition\, we begin to reclaim peace\, presence\, and purpose in our lives and communities TODAY! \nWhat You Can Do:\nJoin The Experience and Share with Your Friends!

SUMMARY:The Art of Grief Tending — Foundational Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Grief Tending is a 3-hour online experiential workshop for those who wish to understand grief better — their own grief or that of others — and learn ways to meet it with presence\, compassion\, and skill. \nIn a culture that often avoids grief\, pathologizes it\, or urges people to “move on\,” this workshop offers a grounded introduction to grief as a natural\, relational\, and lifelong response to loss — not something to “get over\,” but something to be tended in community and with care. \nThrough grief literacy teaching\, gentle somatic practices\, guided reflection\, and shared inquiry\, participants will explore: \n• What grief is (and isn’t)\, including common myths and cultural misunderstandings\n• How grief lives in the body and nervous system\n• Simple\, practical ways to support oneself through grief\n• The importance of witnessing grief\, ritual\, and relational support in healthy grieving \nThis workshop is suitable for anyone living with grief\, as well as caregivers\, community workers\, clinicians\, and those wanting to build grief literacy in their lives or work. \nNo prior experience is needed. You are welcome exactly as you are. \nTo attend\, please register on the event website.
