This website is designed to help you to find resources for whatever you are looking for from estate planning and will writing through to end-of-life advice and preparation for what happens after death. 

This is a place to come and broaden your horizons and find what might work for you when it comes to the end of life.  It comes to us all, and it’s the way we prepare ourselves, prepare our loved ones and understand the process that de-mystifies and helps us come to terms with the inevitable. 

For some, the fear of death is really the fear of the unknown.  The “what ifs?” and the “what happens when?” all cloud your thoughts and cause anxiety and stress.  How you deal with this as an individual is just that, individual to you.  This site is designed to help you with your options. Not only planning your funeral but decided where or what you can do with your remains.  There’s a lot more options for us all these days. More than burial or cremation.  Then there’s how you want to be remembered, or how you want to remember your loved one.  What about employing a guide to help you, a Soul midwife or Shaman and what do they even do?  What about dealing with grief, how do you know what’s ok, is it the right time?

Stop and think about it for more than a minute and you’ll have more questions than answers.
