The goal of these events is to hold space for one another as we share our stories of grief and loss for all the little and big deaths in our lives.
Registration is not required to attend, however it is recommended. Please register on the Red Hook Community Center website here.
Vigil Circle Training
The Vigil Circle is the beating heart of the Seventh Sense. All partners in this collective are deeply committed to creating a sacred bond with those we accompany at the end of life. The intention of this circle is to learn ways we can foster safety as we cradle others with the utmost dignity, and as we hold space for the dying person.
Over the course of three Sundays, May 18, May 25 and June 1, we will gather at the Seventh Sense home for the second cohort of our Vigil Circle Training. This training is offered gratis to those who want to become volunteers with us in any capacity, and it is not necessary to have trained as a death doula in order to join. Daily workshops from 3-5pm will be followed by a potluck from 5-6pm.
To register, please email info@theseventhsense.org with your name and contact information.
Further details regarding the potluck and address information will be sent prior to the first gathering. Registration will be limited to 8 people.

Our Intention
We host death and grief awareness events around the Hudson Valley. We intend to create a safe space where information can be shared and questions answered, as we openly discuss death and dying in our community and our culture.
Our aim is to assuage fear and phobia around death and grief so that we are all able to die with dignity and to move through our grief.
If you are in a community who could benefit from us hosting an event for you, please reach out.
