Funerals/Wakes/Remembrance

Celebrating a life at this tender time of grief and mixed emotions is made easier for all concerned if handled with sensitivity and compassion. I will work with you and your relatives/friends to create a truly personal service that honours, respects and celebrates the life passed. I consider funerals or Ceremonies of Remembrance to be the most meaningful of ceremonies and it is a privilege to celebrate the life of a soul with a service that reflects the richness of their life (or otherwise) and honours the interconnecting circle of friends and family they have left behind.

Entries/exits:

Some people wish to simply celebrate the entry of a new soul into the world or ease the departure of a soul soon to leave – (perhaps someone who is suffering or very ill) & acknowledge its divinity with special ritual eg fire ceremony, the scattering of flowers, chanting of mantras such as the Mahamrityunjaya mantra (to ease suffering). I also work with terminally ill clients to ensure they have positive control and creative input into the ceremony that will celebrate their existence after they are gone; I have seen how empowering this can be to those that are so sick and feel powerless in so many other areas.
