« back to classes page
Death is a universal part of life, yet it is often difficult to discuss. This beginner-friendly class offers a compassionate introduction to death, dying, grief, and end-of-life care. Explore the history of death practices, the differences between palliative care and hospice, common phases of dying, and the role of touch, presence, and caregiving throughout the process. We’ll discuss grief and its effects on the body, advance directives, burial and cremation options, cultural and personal rituals, and the importance of holding space for others. Whether for personal interest or to support a loved one, this class provides education, resources, and time for questions and discussion.
