"When we embrace fully our living and our dying we awaken to our full potential,
we become more real with ourselves and others, more present with each other,
and live our lives as true embodied spirit."
-Josiane Antonette


By examining the processes of living, dying and grieving, and the spiritual dimensions of one's existence, participants will be better prepared to work with the aged, the dying and grieving, and to understand their own mortality. Through lectures and various exercises, this specialized training covers practical skills in dealing with death and dying, how to work with a person in a coma, what happens at the time of death, and the after life. It offers a supportive environment necessary for participants to explore and express their own fears of life and death and to learn how to be with loss and change, whether theirs or someone else's. The course is designed for medical and nursing staff, health care providers, and ministers and others wishing to expand their awareness or who wish to work with people with a life threatening illness as a volunteer for the Bernadette Foundation visitation program. At the end of the course each participant will receive a certificate of completion.
