LEVEL TWO TRAINING – “END OF LIFE DOULA & DEATH EDUCATOR”
This training focuses on two streams at the same time – End of Life Doula (EOLD) & Death Educator.
EOLD focuses on the use of the teachings of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, to accompany the dying and their loved one. The participants will delve into the subjects of conscious communication and listening, setting boundaries and the ‘Savior Syndrome, curing & healing, sitting in Shuniya and special related topics like medical aid in dying. They will learn to apply the Four Phases of Awareness to the person dying’s experience.
The Death Educator (DE) helps to create a new relationship with death for themselves and for other through workshops, presentations, trainings and one-on-one conversations. As the participants explore the different topics, it becomes easier to talk about death – it is no longer a taboo word and subject. Death is the greatest teacher for a full life. As fear is released, participants uncover their abilities to live their passions and dreams.
This is a very intimate and interactive training where class times include in-depth discussions, processing and embodying the information through the lens of a EOL Doula/Death Educator.
