Bring your songs, poetry, stories, dance or any other expression your heart feels called to offer around the topics of death and grief.
We are the Luminous Threshold Collective. We are called end of life doulas, death midwives, deathcare workers, deathwalkers or deathtenders. We collaborate with the dying and those close to them on every facet of their journey toward and through the portal between this life and the next.
We want to increase community building, support and engagement around the topics of death, dying, grief and loss and, in so doing, heighten everyone’s moment to moment awareness of the beauty and preciousness of the gift of life.
The event will be an open mic format where people can sing, dance, recite poetry, or speak extemporaneously about their experiences of death and grief and be witnessed and heard by a radically present and loving audience in a well-held container.
There are no rules other than a share cannot last longer than five minutes. You need not perform to attend. The witnessing is at least as important as the performing!
We imagine it as a community grief ritual. Sometimes a couple hours of cathartic release and tender listening and holding can do more to heal than years on a therapist’s couch.
We believe our fractured and frenetic culture sorely needs spaces like this for people to slow down and come together. We also believe there is no greater or more ubiquitous fear, no greater or more ubiquitous taboo and no greater or more ubiquitous teacher than death around which to come together.
