midwifing the dying

Love to the Wildlife Carers

Yesterday I ran into Annie, a beautiful local wildlife carer here in Sherbrooke Forest and she has 2 orphaned Ringtail Possums in her pouch. There are so many amazing volunteers who give their time and love to these creatures. It is a real labour of love - I never see Anne without a wee creature peeking out of her hair, her bag. She has endless patience. For everyone out there who helps in their own way thank you for your love.

When we had this encounter I had just been spending time with my dear sister Rainbowalker dreaming up a circle to began teaching and sharing wisdom about death and dying.  Rainbowalker is not only and intuitive healer but an incredible palliative care nurse. We are both passionate about clearing fear around death and also giving practical and real advice about preparing sacred space at this threshold and how to prepare the physical body for the Great Journey. To meet these wee treasures felt like a blessing on this new dream.
