Soul Passages

Death Doula | Death Midwife Training | Death Healing Rituals

With Sarah Kerr, PhD, Death Doula and Ritual Healing Practitioner

Loss of a Pet or Plant Friend

Posted on March 12, 2019

This was my second interview on The Numinous Podcast with Carmen Spagnola. Here’s what Carmen says in her post about it:

“The most incredible thing happened during the taping of this episode. Precisely what I was asking Sarah advice around happened…to her. This episode is dedicated to Sarah’s deceased cat, Luna, and all those who are suffering grief over the death of a beloved animal, or tree friend, or natural landscape. Sarah generously wrote about her experience on her blog.

Sarah Kerr is a death doula and ritual healing practitioner. She works with dying people and their families, as well as families navigating the death of a pet, and also lectures and teaches about death care and the healing power of ritual. Sarah previously appeared on the podcast in episode 98: Priestess, Shaman, Mystic Scapegoat.

In this episode, we talk about the nuts and bolts of dying well, (are there things you should or shouldn’t say to a dying person?), being a death doula (how do you manage your energy being in such intense environments?), and ways to honour the death of animals and trees.”
