About NJ Death Cafe:
NJ Death Cafe is facilitated by a trio of death curious folks. We are a meditation teacher, an educator, and a death doula. We are based in Essex County, NJ and will be having a floating death cafe at different locations in our area. We all believe deeply in community connection and the power of diverse voices in the conversation.
What brings you to Death Cafe?
Our commitment to our communities and our desire to hold space for difficult conversations. We strongly believe that fostering environments where conversations about death and dying occur teach us how to live deeply.
What would you like your legacy to be?
They built a community around the topic of death that made us all feel lighter.
Thoughts for sharing:
“To honor our grief, to grant it space and time in our frantic world, is to fulfill a covenant with soul—to welcome all that is, thereby granting room for our most authentic life.”
― Francis Weller, The Wild Edge of Sorrow: Rituals of Renewal and the Sacred Work of Grief
