You can have your dead person at home for a few days after their death if you wish. If they died at home, they can stay there for a while until you are ready. If they died elsewhere, they can come home. You do not need to send your person off to a funeral director (if using one at all) straight away if you don’t want to. All of these things are doable and most importantly, legal. If the death was expected and has been verified, you can do whatever you like with your person after death as regards care of the body and where they go 🙏🏼

Realistically, you can keep a dead person at home for a few days, possibly a week but that might be pushing it, especially in the warmer weather. This is because of the natural decomposition of the body. It also depends on the physical state of the body when they died, if they have any wounds etc and the tools you can create/have access to make it happen.

The essential things to consider and put in place are….
- closing the mouth of your person. You may need to use something to do this like elastic around the head or towels placed under the chin.
- possibly blocking other orifices if planning on keeping the body for more than a few days.
- keeping the torso cold. You can do this using ice packs/frozen bottles of water/any frozen foods (I have used fish fingers and peas before) These would sit under arms, in between legs and around the chest/stomach/neck
- keeping windows closed (flies/bugs)
- keeping the room as cool as possible
- keeping the body flat

Some funeral directors will have equipment such as cooling blankets/ice packs to help. Some have cuddle cots for babies. Find out if anyone local to you has these facilities available. You can also get support to do this from someone like myself 🙏🏼❤️

It is more common than you may realise. Some people just need a day or night, just a bit more time before they let their person go. Some do it for religious ritual reasons. Some folks I have supported have put it in their death plan that they want stay at home, or go home after they die before they go to the funeral directors. All of this is legal. And it is important we all know we have choices and options ❤️

"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh.
There was a pause.
"Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet.
"No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do."
"That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.

"What are you doing?" asked Pooh.
"Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.

"But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh."

And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right."

In modern British society, death is out of sight and behind closed doors. Many of us lack direct exposure to the dying process - with all sorts of potential ...

The Field of Dreams

I am passionate about life and the journey that we find ourselves on. I am a manifester of light and a true believer in alchemy and my passion is to share this with those of you who wish to travel to The Field of Dreams here in Claverley, on the beautiful Shropshire boarders. I powerfully believe that within us, we have the ability to transform our lives by using the elements that reside within us.

Come with me on a journey to find your light and truth. Come with me to ignite your creative spark. Come with me to connect with the Divine that resides in all of us.

I offer one to one work with individuals wishing to find deeper clarity in their lives. I am a trained Integrative Counsellor using a range of therapeutic and spiritual practices to enable individuals to improve their health and well-being.

I offer group workshops and events incorporating breath-work, bodywork, shamanic dance, ceremony, sweat-lodges, yoga and connection with community.
