Dearest Friends and Followers,
The equinox on Saturday, 23 September 2023, marks the beginning of spring or autumn, depending on where you live, and I wish you a happy new season with all my heart. May this new season, symbolised by the floriography of the canna lily, bring us more spiritual awakening, courage, beauty, protection and emotional balance.
I hope this message reaches you in good health and full of purpose and positivity. I would like to share with you a few changes in my journey on social media. After careful consideration, I've decided to reduce the number of posts I make on Facebook. However, I will continue to share my thoughts and experiences on Instagram, TwitterX and, most importantly, on my daily blog, as that is where the interest is highest.
However, the main reason for this change is my desire to engage with more controversial-to-some topics that need a platform beyond Facebook. Therefore, I invite you to visit my blog at https://www.clarityforlife.training/blog if you want to keep up with my musings rather than here, although I'll visit daily.
I have been passionately pursuing my longstanding interest in death, dying and bereavement all year. Unfortunately, these are topics that many people shy away from, leaving them unprepared for the profound impact when they or a loved one is faced with end-of-life issues and death.
The dying process often brings immense changes in family and friendship dynamics - aspects often not addressed in existing literature. While numerous excellent books offer personal accounts and professional perspectives, I am adding my voice to the mix, working on a user-friendly handbook that encourages open and frequent conversations and provides a guide to navigating the complexities of dying and the profound void and grief that the loss of a loved one can bring.
Death is a natural part of life, and providing a positive perspective is important to me. I have set myself the ambitious target of self-publishing my handbook by the end of 2024 or early 2025.
If you would like to be notified when my publication date approaches, please let me know here in the comments or send me a personal message on Facebook, as unknown emails often end up in my spam folder. I'll happily add you to my growing contact list to keep you in the loop.
This journey has been a privilege because I have researched extensively and learned more about the work of so many remarkable organisations and exceptional workers in the field — #carers #doulas #doctors #nurses #hospicespecialists #palliativespecialists #morticians #volunteers and other members of the #deathpositivemovement
We all need one fabulous project to spark our creativity and passion, and this is mine, which completely consumes me. It has been an arduous yet fulfilling journey laced with a kaleidoscope of emotions and new discoveries.
We are witnessing and in the midst of monumental changes on our beloved planet, ranging from the frightening (leading to more deaths) to the awe-inspiring (leading to new life). If we are awake, aware, kind, skilled, balanced, prepared, and do our part, we can meet and overcome the challenges facing us and humanity. Together, hand in hand, we can create a more compassionate, enlightened and grown-up society. Thank you for all you are doing and for sharing this journey with me.
Please keep spreading your kindness. It's a major key to unlocking the door to a New Way, a New Earth and a New Humanity.
