THE SACRED JOURNEY HOME
Holistic, emotional and spiritual care of the dying
THE SACRED JOURNEY HOME
Hello, I'm Rachael.
I've been volunteering at my local Hospice since 2013. During that time I had the pleasure of supporting end-of-life patients and their families. I love being able to have the skills to comfort and bring peace to the dying and their families at such an important time in their life. A time that most people seem not to think about, yet it is so important. Death can be a very beautiful journey and I wish to bring this gift to others.
​
I realised I wanted to take this type of sacred work forward so I enrolled at the Soul Midwives School and completed my formal training. I was trained by the wonderful Felicity Warner and her team down in Dorset in the UK. I'm thrilled to be part of the Soul Midwife family and have learnt some extraordinary skills to support those at end-of life.
​
I work with people of all ages and beliefs - my role is to serve, not to fix or rescue.
​
In 2019 I was asked by Felicity to become a Soul Midwife Mentor which is a huge honour. I will now also be supporting newly trained Soul Midwives through their apprenticeship period and case studies to gain the full qualification.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
There is no right or wrong time to get in touch with a Soul Midwife. What matters is when it feels right for you. I work with people of all ages and all stages of their journey. This can be at point of terminal diagnosis, through the the final hours of life.
The first and most powerful technique I use is to create a heart-soul connection to connect with my dying friend.
​
The type of work I do varies from friend to friend. Each session is led by their wants and needs. I offer a range of support, including but not limited to:
​
Creating a Death Plan
Guided visualisations, creating memories to leave behind and journalling
Breath work to help with anxiety
Spiritual counselling to enable the release of Soul Wounds
Light holistic therapies such as 'Gentle Touch' and Reiki
Energy work to release stuck energies and aim for a seamless flow during the transverses stage
Vigil and hold a sacred space during final moments
​
If you feel you'd like to work with me, or your loved one is at end-of-life and you feel they would benefit from my support, simply get in touch for an informal chat.

"We make plans for all sorts during our lifetime.  Such as; getting married, having children, career moves and holidays - all of which might not even happen. However death, is the one thing that will definitely happen and we try to not even think about it.  Your death can be peaceful and even beautiful with a plan and support."
