Jenny Wren

A doula will hold space for the ‘traveller’ by sitting quietly with them, talking or reading to them, playing their favourite music and other acts of companionship.

You will be in charge of your final days.

The doula will help you put together a customised end-of-life plan that might include things like:
● Would you prefer to be sitting outside in the sunshine or inside?
● Do you want fresh flowers each week?
● Do you want plants, candles or oils burning in the room?
● Will your pets be present?
● What style of music do you want surrounding you?
● What type of photos do you wish to look at; your loved ones or only photos of your pets?
Other more essential tasks can be facilitated by your doula too:
● Make sure your legal documents and advanced care directives are in order and up to date.
● Liaise with bodies that deal with your personal business or medical requirements.
● Inform what rituals you want to be performed at your funeral – religious or secular?
● How do you want your funeral to proceed? Who gives the eulogy? Do you forego flowers for charitable donations?
● De-clutter your home and legacy support around treasured memories and possessions that will go to your loved ones

Jenny has the skills of her background in the spiritual practice of yoga and meditation to facilitate all aspects of supporting a person at the end of the life’s journey as well as their friends and family. In addition, she is a trained Funeral Celebrant.
