Everyone knows how to die! As an end of life doula, I am struck by how the body knows how to take each of us into death. Death is in charge of that particular journey. Since 90% of us reach the phase of 'living while dying', our job is to find a path of peace and acceptance of the inevitable. Acceptance allows us to engage with life on its own terms rather than rail against the fact that life- and death- is not as we would wish. When we accept death, we can find greater ease and comfort. Almost every faith tradition values acceptance and contemplation of death as a path to living more fully. We can trust and depend on this: each of us knows intrinsically how to die. https://lnkd.in/dnUBACqb

Let's talk about something that is tough, but important when considering end-of-life care: having those tough conversations about hospice for our loved ones. We understand the weight of these discussions, and we're here to support you every step of the way. Here's a gentle guide to help: Begin with Love: Approach the conversation with warmth and tenderness. Let your loved one know that you're there to support them through every decision. Listen, Truly Listen: Create a space where they feel safe to express their thoughts and feelings. Sometimes, just having someone to listen can make all the difference. Embrace Understanding: Everyone's journey is unique. Take the time to understand their fears, hopes, and wishes. Educate with Kindness: Share information about hospice care gently and with compassion. Let them know it's about enhancing quality of life and providing comfort, not quitting. Don't be Afraid to Ask Questions: Remember, you're not alone. Reach out to us at Headwaters Hospice, and End-Of-Life Doula, or lean on family and friends for support and guidance. In the end, these conversations are about love and care. Let's navigate them together, ensuring our loved ones receive the utmost compassion and comfort. #hospicecare #EndOfLifeJourney #headwatershospice #embracewithlove

The role of End of Life Doulas is gaining recognition for their holistic approach to care. CM&F Group recently highlighted the significant benefits of including EOLD's in a person's care plan - offering mental, spiritual, and physical support throughout the end-of-life process. In a culture where death is often medicalized, the concept of communal and social support is emphasized. As the quote goes, "It takes a village to raise a kid, and it’s the same for helping someone die." The integration of EOLD's into hospice care, nursing facilities, and families is becoming more prevalent. They play a vital role in ensuring a dignified death, providing guidance through grief, and offering support during the entire process.
