ABOUT THIS SESSION
When someone says you have a death wish, they likely believe you are tempting fate and possibly, consciously or unconsciously, seeking death. “Did you see her dive off that cliff? She must have a death wish.” “You must be crazy to go to that protest march alone. Do you have a death wish?”
Well, we think it’s about time for the “death wish” to get a bit of a makeover - to view them as reminders of life, not the desire for death, that can be thought about, accomplished and shared before we die. We want to encourage the writing, and the granting, of death wishes as critical components of the death planning process. Sure, we have to decide what we want done with our body, who we want to invite to the funeral and who gets the heirloom necklace. But don’t we also want a shot at granting peace and comfort to those we leave behind with instructions for how we hope they live in our absence?
In this guided writing workshop, Chelsea and Tamatha will provide prompts for writing your own death wishes - the things you want people to know, see and do about your memory, the life you lived and left, and their place in carrying it all forward.
