THE SACRED JOURNEY HOME
Holistic, emotional and spiritual care of the dying
WHAT ARE SOUL MIDWIVES?
Soul Midwives are non-medical, holistic companions who guide and support the dying in order to facilitate a gentle and tranquil death.
​
Soul Midwives
Listen, provide gentle therapeutic techniques and ensure compassionate care at all times.
Work holistically with both the spirit and the soul of the dying person.
Keep a loving vigil.
Create and hold a sacred and healing space for the dying person.
Recognise and support the individual needs of the departing soul to enable a tranquil death.
Use sound, touch, colour and smell and other gentle techniques to help alleviate pain and anxiety.
Support families and loved ones.
The Soul Midwife’s most important role is to provide comfort, continuous support and reassurance in helping a dying person to experience the death he or she wants.
"Well, don't they do fantastic work? Not just for the dying, but for those left behind."
