While there were few people in attendance, unique cultural views of death and burial were learned and explored. Focusing on China, unspoken complexity of dying was learned as land isn't allotted to cemeteries, creating a digital tombstone that can be cleaned and maintained to ensure the ancestors are remembered and cared for. "Skully" the skeleton cat was happy to be present; the atmosphere was welcoming and the mocha was delicious!

Our most recent Death Café was held August 19th, 2025 and we had 7 people in attendance. We covered a variety of topics this month and had some great conversations! One thing we covered was talking about bereaved children, and how to care for them or talk to them in an appropriate manner. Our biggest topic that we discussed was the idea of finding your room, reading the room, and using your room! This means finding the people you can talk to about these tougher topics, knowing what you can say to them, and once you find them - being open to having those conversations and value those ...

I had no idea just how energizing it would be to talk about death with so many others. In the past these conversations have always felt either clandestine, stolen between friends "going through something", or at church, with talk of a guaranteed afterlife (strings attatched). Our Death Cafe was neither.
Some of this might have to do with the location--The Witch at The Edge of The Park agreed to host our circle at her shop, and the engergy of the group rose to the occasion.
I didn't realize how apprehensive I was to see the following hour unfurl until I stood up to introduce myself and our ...

New Blog post: My First Experience of Life Beyond Death
Posted by DavidWimble on Aug. 16, 2025, 6:37 p.m.
My first experience beyond death wasn't flashy ... no lights or images ... but it was profound.
I was living alone in a small house.
This took place 38 years ago. I was 28 years old.
I had been experiencing energy flowing into my body for the first time a short time leading up to the life changing energy experience.
So I already knew that there was life beyond the normal day to day existence.
It ...
