This training will take place at the Life and Death Wellness Center in the beautiful serene town of Kapa’au on the Big Island of Hawaii
This exciting and inspiring weekend training includes lecture, discussion, role-playing, films, meditation, journaling, learning hands-on skills and group exploration. As a prerequisite for the training, you will be asked to complete some inspiring reading, reflecting and writing. You will be asked to explore your own feelings around death and dying. In other words, we are asking you to show up fully for this experience even before it begins. Once the training is completed you are encouraged to volunteer with hospice, a nursing home or a private care home in order to complete your patient hours and to get more experience in supporting the dying with your new end of life doula skills. If you are already a caregiver you can complete your hours with those you are supporting if the situation allows.
Mentoring – There are those of you who will want and need extra support. The mentoring program will provide you with an additional 12 – 1-hour sessions to discuss what you are learning and any concerns or issues that might arise while you are in your role as the doula. Bobbi has been mentoring volunteers for hospice for years and offers her knowledge with a gentle and compassionate style of support.
With Mentoring – 12 -1-hr sessions, in person, by phone, zoom or skype.
