Death care for when the time comes. Life contemplation and planning until then.

I wish this for you: to find the people you belong with, the ones who will see your pain, companion you, hold you close,
even as the heavy lifting of grief is yours alone. As hard as they may seem to find at times, your community is out there. Look
for them. Collect them. Knit them into a vast flotilla of light that can hold you.
- Megan Devine (from It's OK that You're Not OK)

🪄 new date 🪄

Let's talk about grief! Join us for this webinar-style talk for a deeper understanding of grief.

We'll talk about...

How, when, and for how long grief can show up.

The different and varied things we grieve (it's not just death).

The difference between grief and mourning.

What to say when you don't know what to say.

Holding space and letting go of the urge to solve problems or change things.

The DED talk is only $5, because we want it to be accessible to everybody (message if you need a free ticket). Because grief happens to everybody. In fact, it's almost as inevitable as death itself.

Tickets on tildecare.com

See you soon 💫

Grief: an involuntary and universal reaction to loss. Grief is almost as inevitable as death.

Join us for this webinar-style talk about grief and how it shows up. Join us if you've ever experienced grief, loved someone who has, or want to be better prepared for when it rears it's head.

This is for everybody. It's only $5 (msg us for alternate pricing if needed).

Welcome to our DED talk. Get tickets in Events on tildecare.com ❤️‍🔥

Remember you are water. Of course you leave salt trails. Of course you are crying. Flow.
P.S. If there happens to be a multitude of griefs upon you, individual and collective, or fast and slow, or small and large, add equal parts of these considerations: that the broken heart can cover more territory. that perhaps love can only be as large as grief demands. that grief is the growing up of the heart that bursts boundaries like an old skin or a finished life. that grief is gratitude. that water seeks scale, that even your tears seek the recognition of community. that the heart is a front line and the fight is to feel in a world of distraction. that death might be the only freedom. that your grief is a worthwhile use of your time. that your body will feel only as much as it is able to. that the ones you grieve may be grieving you. that the sacred comes from the limitations. that you are excellent at loving.

A powerful part of our Living Funeral Ceremony is writing last words. There is no wrong way to do it. Whether it's instructions, reflections of life, goodbyes... participants are invited to write the words they wish to leave behind.

Sometimes writing last words makes people realize that they need more time. More time to write their words. More time with loved ones. More time doing what they enjoy. More time, more time, more time.

Luckily, it's a 🌱 Living 🌱 Funeral and they've got time.

This exercise can be done at any time, even if not in ceremony. What would you say if you knew it was the last thing you'd ever say? Who would you say it to? And can these last words influence your life, a life that is still very much happening?

Life is short, though I keep this from my children.
Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine
in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways,
a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways
I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least
fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative
estimate, though I keep this from my children.
For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird.
For every loved child, a child broken, bagged,
sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world
is at least half terrible, and for every kind
stranger, there is one who would break you,
though I keep this from my children. I am trying
to sell them the world. Any decent realtor,
walking you through a real sh****le, chirps on
about good bones: This place could be beautiful,
right? You could make this place beautiful.
- Maggie Smith, Good Bones

If I were called upon to state in a few words the essence of everything I was trying to say both as a novelist and as a preacher it would be something like this:

Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and pain of it no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.

By Frederick Buechner

Breathe in, breathe out.

How often do you consciously use your breath to alter your mindset or somatic processes?

Whether it's a few deep breaths in times of stress or a full session of breathwork, the breath is a powerful tool within us all.

Breath both gives life and signals death. It is fundamental to everything we do.

Learn a little more about breathwork in the slides, in Tilde's digital Journal, and stay tuned for the date of our next group session. We'd love to breathe with you soon 💨

The confrontation with death – and the reprieve from it – makes everything look so precious, so sacred, so beautiful that I feel more strongly than ever the impulse to love it, to embrace it, and to let myself be overwhelmed by it. I wonder if we could love passionately, if ecstacy would be possible at all, if we knew we'd never die. By Michael Gurian.

Talking about death won't kill you.

But the possibility has crossed my mind more often than I expected. What if doing this work somehow brings death toward me and my loved ones?! I take some deep breaths. I remind myself that talking about death won't kill me, much like talking about s*x won't get me pregnant.

I remind myself: I can't control the time/place/way I die, but I can get prepared for it. And if death happens to knock on my door, I'm ready. Or I'm at least a little more ready than I would be if I didn't talk about it so much. For me, that makes the conversation worth it.

More thoughts on Tilde's journal. It's only a couple minutes read and I'd love to know what you think.
