End of Life Doula 

As an EOLD, I provide an Advocate to allow an individual to transition consciously with dignity. My duty is to provide choices to individuals and their families and non-medical support to empower them to envision and create plans and actions to have inner peace in the middle of their storm. 
What does an End of Life Doula do?
​"End-of-Life Doulas complement the care provided by family members and friends, as well as medical, palliative, and hospice professionals, within the settings of hospitals, senior care facilities, and homes. EOL Doulas support clients with individualized, compassionate care in a number of ways, including emotional, spiritual, informational, and physical support, which greatly helps to lower stress levels, aid in comfort, and promote personalized, even positive, dying passages for clients and their loved ones."

Death Formulator

Every single second we are that much closer to death. Death is the one thing we all have in common after birth. There are things you need done. Right now is the right time to prepare for death. Perhaps at this particular time you are unable to get someone else to commit to your needs. I am here to help. Lets explore and execute your needs and wishes. There is absolutely no reason to leave your family and friends with a ton of confusion and expense just because you fail to plan. I can recommend you to services and attorneys to assist in estate and elder care planning. 

It's called The Conversation and "Ninety-two percent of people think it is important to talk about end-of-life wishes with their loved ones, but only 32 percent have done so". AARP 2020. 
I can facilitate that conversation with you and your love ones via Zoom or in person within the Denver, CO metro area. 
​
I can also help with the:

• Organization of important things (ex: photos, estate papers, documents, etc.)
• Pre-death cleaning (I am the person to hold your secrets, to help you dispose of items you would prefer not to be seen by your partner, family or friends.)
• Light house cleaning (Things may get messy when a person is unwell.)
• Making a Memory Book/ Life Reflection/ Legacy Projects (This could be written, photographic or video.)
• Complete errands
• Prepare meals (I am able to meet a variety of dietary needs including Gluten Free, Vegan and Vegetarian)
• ​Company and conversation
• ​OR, just sitting in silence, so you are not alone

 Not that other YOGA.

Yoga, having the ability to be adaptive, gentle and restorative is the perfect exercise to enhance focus, relaxation, flexibility, strength and pain reduction.  
As my own practice increased during a life changing event, I completed a 200 hour Yoga Alliance approved yoga teacher training to increase my knowledge, practice and teach others. I was also certified as a SilverSneakers Flex Instructor, and teach adaptive classes and 1 on 1 interaction.  
Services I provide to individuals or groups:​

• stretch and balance
• restorative yoga
• gentle flow yoga​ 
• Seated fitness

All of these can be tailored for an individual's need and abilities.
What I don't do are inversions, jumping, or long held poses unless supported and on the floor or bed.

Officiant and Notary Public

I performed my first wedding in 2001, Couples in Illinois, Georgia, and Colorado have trusted me to guide their special event and put my signature on their wedding certificate. Although self solemnization is legal in Colorado, I am mobile and ready to make your wedding special. From a quick civil ceremony to a couple's exchange of their own vows, to a full blown custom event, it is always my honor to officiate special events.

As a mobile notary I am available to notarize OR witness your legal documents including those related to end-of-life, such as Wills or advanced planning documents. U.S, research states that less than 40% of Americans have their Advance Directive documents completed, These documents can be completed by the individual for free or I can provide a low cost resource to have these and other estate documents completed by an attorney.

Living Wake, Living Funeral/Memorial,
​ Celebration of Life

There are few hard and fast rules other than the fact that one day, all living things will pass-on, die, depart this life, expire, pass away, etc. Therefore, why do death by the traditional road map? Consider being the Host, Co-host, or Guest of Honor at your own pre-death event? Like my Momma always says..."Give me my flowers while I am here to enjoy them." I am here to help you get your "flowers", reunion, party, kind words...you name it. There is no need to wait until you are gone for your friends, family, or co-workers to gather in your honor and for you to physically miss the whole event. You dream it and allow me to help plan and execute your event. 

Energy Work, Meditation, Aromatherapy, Hemp Oils

Hemp and essential oils can work alone or together to improve, relaxation, sleep, heart-rate, 
​focus, emotional balance, reduce, stress, pain, anxiety, and depression.
​FYI...I am a registered Colorado Cannabis Caregiver.

Sitting Vigil

I am here to support you or your love one in the final hours...mind, body and soul. By this point, wishes have been expressed. I am an Advocate for the dying. Candle light. Favorite music. An open window. Religious or spiritual observance. Or, perhaps silence and darkness. Someone to understand the visions. Video call to say goodbye. Whether having someone near, or time alone, the goal at end of life, is comfort and peace. Research provides evidence that depending on the circumstance, the brain may not cease consciousness immediately at death. This is a time to help the dying understand and release into the final Circle of Life process.
