ABOUT THIS PROGRAM
A One-Day Workshop
Sunday, May 1, 2022 | 10:00 am – 12:30 pm & 2:00 – 5:30 pm ET
Today there is a burgeoning transformation of cultural attitudes to death, and a plethora of theories, methods and practices that guide our work with the dying and bereaved. However, regardless of one’s approach or perspective, there is a growing recognition among spiritual care-givers and helping professionals that one is more adequately prepared for companioning the dying and bereaved by investigating our own personal reactions and responses to death and dying. Especially in this time of pandemic crisis, and its aftermath of grief residue, there are high levels of stress affecting caregivers: being able to wrestle with one’s own personal losses, and with the grief one encounters doing this work, leaves an individual less susceptible to “compassion fatigue” and more open to caring for others.
With this in mind, this experientially-oriented workshop will provide an opportunity for participants to explore their personal grief journey, as well as how both family of origin and the surrounding culture impact our attitudes towards grief and loss. In the final analysis, we shall look at death as a teacher that gives one the opportunity for psychological and spiritual development.
This workshop can be taken individually or as part of the Integrative Thanatology Certificate Training | An Art of Dying Education Program.
