Ep. 462 ARCHIVE: Creating Sacred Space for the Dying with Kitty Edwards

Listen Later

Learn about the importance of sacred rituals and practices at the end of life.

This interview was recorded several years ago with Kitty Edwards, a shamanic practitioner, public speaker, published author and master teacher. She served as the director of The Living and Dying Consciously Project and as the co-founder of The No Regrets Project. Kitty’s passion is to help people explore ways to consciously engage in the dying process, celebrate the accomplishment of navigating the journey to death, and have a greater sense of their own journey to come. DISCLAIMER: As with all interviews in the archives, some links and courses shared may have changed over time and may no longer be available.
