Preparing for the End of Life with Leanne Nolan
Leanne is a former school teacher turned yoga instructor, death doula & educator as well as a plant medicine advocate. She believes that natural psychedelic plant medicines, and their synthetic relatives hold vast potential as tools for improving health and wellness, and she is especially interested in their benefits for end-of-life anxiety.
A few highlights:
1. When I asked Leanne about the terms used for the kind of work that she does (i.e., death doula, end-of-life doula), she said that she prefers death doula because she doesn't like to hide the fact that we all do die and she doesn't want to have death be a word that we are afraid to say.
2. Death is change.
3. Many people have a fear of suffering, which can lead to a fear of dying. Plants or psychedelics help one to see that there is nothing to fear.
