Life and death are not separate—they are deeply intertwined. What nourishes one inevitably supports the other.
About the workshops
This series of workshops invite you to explore the profound wisdom of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition in approaching death and impermanence, integrated with practical insights from palliative care. Together, we will confront life’s impermanence with courage and clarity, unlocking opportunities for growth, joy, and meaning.
Why these Workshops?
Preparing for death starts with embracing life as it truly is—without illusions, romanticism, or fear. By recognizing the dynamics of our projections, hopes, and anxieties, we can live more fully in the present and meet the end of life with peace and dignity.
Through this exploration, we can transform our relationship with death and, in turn, transform how we live each day.
What you will learn:
- A deeper understanding of death and impermanence through the lens of Tibetan Buddhist teachings.
- Insights from palliative care practices to support the dying and enhance compassionate presence.
- Practical tools to cultivate awareness, presence, and connection in your daily life.
