Who is this for?
This masterclass was designed for EOLDAC members who had taken end-of-life doula training and wanted to deepen their understanding of how ritual and ceremony can support clients, families, communities, and their own self-care.
What to expect
The workshop explored foundational elements of ceremony and ritual design, visible and invisible moments around dying and death, grief and burnout, and practical ways to weave meaningful ceremony into end-of-life care.
What you'll learn
Participants learned frameworks for crafting and convening end-of-life ceremonies, identifying key moments where ceremony can support meaning, recognizing different kinds of grief, and creating self-care and community-care practices for doula work.
