60 hour End-of-Life Doula Training with Certification

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.
