SUMMARY:2026 Bodalla Deathwalker Training
DESCRIPTION:THIS TRAINING IS OW FULL. PLEASE CONTACT US IF YOU WANT TO GO O
 N THE WAITLIST AS SOMETIMES THINGS CHANGE AT THE LAST MINUTE.\n\nThe in-pe
 rson Deathwalker Trainings with Zenith Virago are a comprehensive and tran
 sformative experience. She has taught versions of this Training for over 2
 5 years\, and has worked as a pioneer in more contemporary and holistic de
 ath care practices for over 30 years.  This Training includes aspects of 
 death doula work\, but is much more comprehensive in its content\, as it a
 lso includes Ceremony creation and delivery.\n\nThe Deathwalker Trainings 
 are highly regarded and have been delivered to people for their personal\,
  professional or complimentary use\, they are applicable to everyone.  Th
 ey are an invaluable body of work to help start you off\, wake you up\, or
  to enhance your already rich personal or professional experience. For man
 y\, they are unexpectedly lifechanging.\n\nZenith is an acknowledged\, res
 pected Elder and pioneer practitioner in the profound work of hands-on end
  of life and after-death care.  She has been teaching\, pre-need\, end of
  life\, after-death care and powerful ceremony.  She delivers everything 
 with an embodied openness\, honesty and a candour that allows you to go de
 eper than you thought possible.  Check out her website\, TEDX talk and ma
 ny video/audio links.\n\nOur definition of a Deathwalker is:-\n\n 	a perso
 n who walks their own journey towards their death as openly\, courageously
  and as best they can.\n 	a person who walks with or accompanies others\, 
 in their death or bereavement journey to encourage and empower them to be 
 as open\, courageous and the best they can. Offering guidance to encourage
  and empower everyone.\n\nZenith is trying to offer the learnings from 30 
 years of experience in to this 3 day non-residential Training. It is nearl
 y everything you need to know about death\, dying &amp\; ceremony\, coveri
 ng social\, legal\, practical\, emotional and many other aspects of the jo
 urney. It is deep\, authentic work and includes\, but is much more than ju
 st death doula work. Check out her website and many video links.\n\nThis i
 s an intensive\, informative and intimate workshop.  Enabling you to expl
 ore your relationship to your own death\, affirming what you may intrinsic
 ally know deep down\, caring or working with others\, and preparing you by
  sharing and explaining multiple aspects of the death\, dying\, loss and c
 eremony process\, and so much more.\n\nShe brings a wealth of lived experi
 ence\, a hybrid of generosity\, for you to take what you need\, into a new
 \, richer place to do this work personally or professionally.  As a bonus
  it will help you face your own death with more awareness and grace.  Lis
 ten to your heart\, find the experienced teacher that sings to you and ope
 ns you to a deeper awareness of life\, death\, yourself and humanity.\n\n
 This exceptional Training covers the whole spectrum from wellness to berea
 vement\, it’s about knowing what your options are\, considering them\, a
 nd making the decisions that are right for you.  It is interactive betwee
 n participants and Zenith\, amongst many others things it includes:\n\n 	E
 xploring and reframing more useful language\n 	Sustainable self-care in ca
 ring or working with the dying &amp\; bereaved\n 	Pre-need legal informati
 on\, preparation and advocacy\n 	Transitioning from illness into dying\n 	
 Care for the dying and after-death body-care\n 	Expected and sudden death\
 n 	Shrouding &amp\; Body disposal options\n 	Understanding Ceremony struct
 ure and content\n 	Working with trauma through ceremony\n 	Healthier berea
 vement and loss.\n\nCombining a hybrid of ancient and more contemporary wa
 ys of being present\, real and beneficial at a challenging time\, appropri
 ate for everyone – for your own personal journey\, to accompany a family
  member or friend\, to increase professional skills or if you feel you hav
 e a calling to some or all aspects of this work.\n\nClasses comprise up to
  24 people\, allowing an intimate alchemy to arise\, which encourages pers
 onal exploration\, growth and questions to also occur within the collectiv
 e experience.\n\n*In some locations\, there is basic overnight accommodati
 on so please contact us if you want to explore that option.\n\nOn completi
 on of Deathwalker Training\, participants receive a Certificate of Attenda
 nce.  After careful consideration\, the NDCC chose not to become an RTO\,
  and not to offer accredited Training. Currently it is not possible to des
 cribe yourself as a Qualified or Certified Deathwalker.  If it was a cer
 tifiable course\, it would need to be much longer than 3 days\, and would 
 require competency tasks and assessments.\n\nWe decided to deliver this bo
 dy of work\, universal knowledge and practical information for people\, so
  they could add to or enhance their existing knowledge and experience. The
 ir inherent capacity to do death well.  Rather than create a much longer 
 more complex and expensive course\, we trust each person will take this Tr
 aining and allow it to evolve and grow them in the most beneficial way for
  each person and their communities.\n\nThere is a minimum requirement of 1
 5 people to go ahead\, and to make the group fire together. If the minimum
  number is not reached 1 month out\, the Training will be cancelled.  Thi
 s has never happened so far.\n\nSee Training section for more detailed con
 tent info.
