Do you…
1. Have questions about loss, dying, and death, but have no one to talk to?
2. Realize that death is inevitable, yet feel scared and uneasy when thinking about it, let alone talking about it?
3. Wonder about how to handle your own emotions (and those of others) when surrounded by dying and
death?
4. Need help in knowing things to say and do to bring comfort and ease to a dying person or to family
members?
5. Want to know choices about what to consider when caring for someone facing death?
The me! die?® series is a venture into personal awareness of and connection to loss, dying, and death. In the first
program of the series, me! die? beginning the journey, you look outward to understand the role played by society,
culture, and personal experience in how you view dying and death. Simply talking about death brings about a different
perspective. New ways of thinking, of which you may not have been aware, are revealed. The foundation for the series is
“Everything is energy.”
Offering three programs that prepare you mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually for the end of life, the me!
die?® series increases awareness about loss, dying, and death, topics that too long have been regarded as taboo. Within
a safe and confidential space, you recall your own stories that have shaped your values and beliefs, those of others, and
the interconnection of everything within the universe. You are led through participant-led dialogues, facilitated
presentations, and confidential workbook activities to a deeper understanding of dying and death. The first program
culminates in a ritual that celebrates the growth of individual and community awareness surrounding loss, dying and
death.
