" We all have to face it at some point; an event of such enormity that it can make everything else in our lives seem insignificant: death, the end of our existence; our departure from this world.
We live in a culture that denies death. We’re taught that death is something we should shy away from, and try to forget about. If we start contemplating our own mortality – so this traditional wisdom goes – we’ll become anxious and depressed. And there’s no doubt that this is often the case. In psychology, Terror Management Theory suggests that a large part of all human behaviour is generated by unconscious fear of death. This fear generates a fundamental anxiety and unease, which we try to offset with behaviour such as status-seeking or strongly defending the values of our culture. We feel threatened by death and so seek security and significance to defend ourselves against it. Studies have shown, for example, that when people are made more aware of their own mortality, they tend to become more nationalistic and tribal and more materialistic.
However, this is by no means always the case. In fact, there is also a great deal of evidence showing that becoming aware of death can have a powerful positive effect, and bring about a radical shift in attitude and perspective "
- Psychology Today 7 Feb. 2014
That is what this course is about - becoming aware of death, making plans, considering others.
Not Halloween parties but compassion, emotions and memories. Bereavement, grief and loss, yes, but also COPING.
Coping with losing a loved one is one of life's great difficulties. If you have experienced the pain of mourning, you know that any way to ease the loss is welcomed. While our knowledge and study of grief continues to evolve, it's important to note that not everyone grieves in the same way: We have individual patterns and different outlets for grief.

I am excited about taking the course. As an end-of-life death doula and course facilitator, I am passionate about working with the dying and their loved ones.
I think the Instructor is very knowledgable and is keen to ensure that students get the most out of his lectures. I would love to get all of his courses because I had cancer and almost died and then when I recovered, m husband had a massive stroke that nearly killed him. We both survived and I want to help people going through cancer and stroke and those in palliative care.
I am working towards becoming a Death Doula. This class is an excellent overview for death education so far.
I have enjoyed taking this course. I found it very relevant for me as it helped me do some of my personal grief work having lost my beloved spouse in December 2018. The content has been relevant for especially on how to prevent early death, how to prepare for death and how to support those dying or who have lost a loved one. For me, i never really thought much of death as a reality until my husband was battling cancer and given a very poor prognosis. I particularly liked the tips on how to go one living when a loved one has passed and how to positively handle and go through grief. The resources given out as workbooks and handouts are a great boost to the knowledge being taught in the course. I liked that some content on COVID has been added too. This makes the course even more relevant given that this is something that has affected almost each of one us and as Grief Counselors in this moment, we are better equipped to help those grieving as a result of COVID. Thank you for the passion and dedication put into this course.
Just getting started. So far so good. Looking forward into learning and growing. Can't wait to further my understanding in this subject.
I've only gotten through the introduction before this was asked, but I am giddy with all of the content to be taught. I cannot wait to get my teeth into this course.
Christmas 2017 we lost our youngest son Michael, 34 to Aids (that we didn't know he had). The grieving for Michael was complicated by the terminal illness of my husband who died July 5, 2019. The experience of grief with Michael changed who I was as a person. I worked with my doctor and a counselor for a year as I struggled to get back to a place where I felt human again. Losing Phil was different because he had been sick for give years. He died at home on Hospice. I write a blog now and I have had the tremendous experience of helping a couple of my friends when they lost a loved one. I feel led to do something with my experiences, to share my story, to help others .
The course is interesting and useful. It's lovely to learn perspectives from an elder who has accumulated such a wide perspective on living and dying. This content and the calm method of delivery are the opposite of the internet's fast-paced superficial fluff. Great ideas to ponder and the material makes for excellent conversational starters with friends! If you are dealing with grief, lack of purpose, end of life issues, or maybe you just want to be a better conversationalist, I highly recommend this course!
I am excited and can’t wait to dive in. I am an aspiring End of Life Doula and a Christian. This will be a great experience!
So far, I am enjoying the format. I am enjoying the transcript version. I may listen and read at the same time. I enjoy the videos so I may pause and take notes, Thank you
Thank you so much for providing all the workbooks and handouts of the resources related to death and the grieving process. I can certainly recognize all the research that went into making this course. And this course appeared just as I was about to start my dissertation research paper for earning my PhD in Metaphysical Sciences, specializing in Metaphysical Parapsychology. My approved topic for my statement of purpose? "Death - Nothing to Fear." Wish me luck!
I enjoy how it was presented and how He is just straight to the point. It made me think and being proactive and a better person for my future. will take more courses from you again.
I have finished the updated version and I have really enjoyed this course. Still have some workbooks to complete, as the course is extremely dense in material, and also has lots and lots of useful information. Very engaging presentation and the teacher is always available to answer any question or comment. It makes you think a lot, and I needed this. It offers a lot of ideas and strategies to cope with Death and to become aware of how we can deal with this process. I absolutely recommend it, it is helpful.
This is a very in depth course with a lot of information about the subject of death. I found it to be very thought provoking as well as funny in places which made the subject matter a little lighter. There are very interesting questions of which i had never thought to even think about and very well researched information and additional websites to visit. I love the instructors stories which helped me to understand the points he was making as well as being wonderful to hear. I especially enjoyed the section regarding the films the instructor had starred in and how they linked into the subject matter amongst other modules. I am learning so much from this course and i am fascinated by the well rounded subject matter and the ease in which such a difficult subject is being taught. i would advise anyone wishing to take this course to do so as it is really interesting. There is also some really helpful advise regarding blood pressure, sleep and strokes, the information presented has helped me to not only help others but to help myself as well especially my son who is on medication and suffers with high blood pressure, we have begun practising some of the advise given such as how to get a better nights sleep, changes to our diets and also monitoring our blood pressures to cut down the incident of strokes. This is a course i would advise not only professionals to partake in but also those who would like to learn more about the subject.
Yes this seems to be a good match for what i'm looking for. I like his delivery method, his slow deliberate diction, I think that's the rite word.
