Turning fear of death into life

I have been running Death Cafes in Ireland for the last couple of years - usually as part of education programmes / conferences.  Last Autumn, I held an event as part of the Hospice Friendly Acute Hospitals Network.  As part of the process, participants wrote down their fears about death and dying and buried those they wanted to lose.  They buried them in a pot and planted a spring bulb.  I received an email from a participant a few weeks ago, who had nurtured her fears and new life is now looking at a beautiful daffodil on her window...very inspiring :)
