All living things follow a cycle of existence, growth, development, and eventual death. However, many of us tend to shy away from acknowledging this reality. Fear and an excessive reliance on medical interventions have contributed to our often dysfunctional relationship with dying. It's crucial to remind ourselves that dying and death are inherent aspects of life.
Just as we undergo a gestation period in our mother's womb to come into the world, the dying process can be seen as a form of gestation, a transition leaving this world.
The support of an End of Life (Death) Doula brings humanity into the process of dying and coping with death.

Together, we will create a personalized care plan that addresses individuals' and their families' unique physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. My experience not only as a doula, and also as an RN in hospice care allows me to suggest pain management and comfort measures while ensuring emotional well-being while coping with death.

Dr. Anthony P. Bossis, a clinical psychologist and professor at NYU School of Medicine, is leading FDA-approved research into the effects of psilocybin, a compound found in certain mushrooms. His studies show that psilocybin can induce mystical experiences characterized by feelings of unity, sacredness, transcendence, and profound positive emotions such as love. These experiences have significant implications for end of life care, mental health treatment, and spiritual understanding.
Dr. Bossis' research suggests that a single psilocybin therapy session could alleviate end of life emotional distress, enhance psychological well-being, and offer profound insights into meaning and spirituality, supporting the ability to cope with death.
By addressing existential despair, anxiety, and depression, psilocybin therapy has the potential to transform the end-of-life experience into one of acceptance, well-being, and personal growth.
Picture this: you've received a terminal illness diagnosis, and the end of your life is looming. It's natural to feel uneasy, perhaps even tempted to resist with every ounce of strength.

We don't have to wait for a diagnosis to acknowledge the inevitability of death.
