About the event
Join Carolina from @wakaspirit for an open conversation about death at the shop!
Death Cafe is an international movement. We meet as equals, as people who are going to die. One conversation at a time, we transform our relationship to loss, aging, mortality, dying, and death so we may transform the way we live. Death Cafes are run in a safe, circle format where everyone has a chance to explore perspectives and experiences.
Everyone is welcome 🖤

The Death Cafe IS:
🖤 a space to meet simply as people who are going to die
🖤 a gathering with no intention of leading participants to any conclusion, product, or course of action
🖤 an open, respectful, and confidential space where people can express their views safely
🖤 tolerant and reverent, honoring all views with equanimity
🖤 open to and respectful of people of all communities, all ages, and all belief systems
🖤 a frank discussion alongside tea, coffee, and baked goods!
The Death Cafe is NOT:
🖤 a bereavement support or grief counseling setting
🖤 for advice giving
🖤 for people who, for whatever reason, are not able to discuss death comfortably and openly
🖤 an opportunity to give people information about death and dying
🖤 for profit
🖤 for networking or promoting a business, service, or product
🖤 for handing out business cards or promotional materials
🖤 a method of community engagement, research, or consultation
