Conscious Dying Support - Thanadoula Services
I have offered conscious dying support formally and informally since 2001. I provide spiritually focused support, energy medicine, process witnessing, and other non-clinical care that encompasses the journey of the the dying process with compassion and consciousness.
This work is also known as that of a death doula, death midwife, or thanadoula. (Thanatology is the study of death and dying). I provide presence, attention, intention, and various kinds of support at the end of life. Most often, my work is directly with those receiving hospice care in private homes or palliative care centers. Additionally, I am an ordained minister (supporting Interfaith practices and all spiritual paths) and am qualified as a highly experienced energy medicine practitioner to offer Death Rites through my lineage, supporting the soul in releasing the body consciously and peacefully as the transition is made. Death doulas support the process of preparing for death and moving into the experience. Just like with birth, this beautiful life transition can be held, witnessed, attended to, and supported with great care and attention. A sliding fee scale is offered for these services. In home support is generally scheduled anywhere from 2 to 8 hours per week. Please contact me at MellieArtema@gmail.com for more information. |
