Journeying Beyond 's apologies to anyone visiting this site, interested in further information about Death Midwifery and 'end of life' (EOL) consultations in Victoria, B.C.   At this point, our Home, Death Midwifery, About Our DM, and Resources pages are the only ones available.   Our focus has been getting the CINDEA website complete.   We are continuing to work on completing this site; but please note that you can get a further understanding about Death Midwifery (and Journeying Beyond's perspectives on it) by visiting the CINDEA pages on The Pan-Death Movement, Death Midwifery, and the Post-death Care/Home Funerals.   

Journeying Beyond 's Death Midwifery services include 'end of life' consultations (comprehensive Advance Directives and Representation Agreements, as well as basic information on Power of Attorney/etc. documents), support for the Death Journeyer and their families throughout the pan-death proces, funeral plans, funeral and/or memorial celebrant services, and initial grief counselling.   The term "pan-death" refers to the whole process, pre/during/post death — including education/information on post-death care at home and required documentation, which are often referred to as a "home funeral".

Pashta MaryMoon is a formally-recognized CINDEA Death Midwife.

Testimonial

My family used Pashta MaryMoon's services before and after the recent passing of our mother.While Pashta provides many services, for us, she was a support for both my mother and us children before the passing as well as after. With her help we planned both my mom's woodland green burial funeral for close friends and family, as well as her ceremony open to everyone — later that afternoon.Pashta was the master of ceremonies for both events.

Death is not something I had very much experience with before my mother got ill.Pashta's experience and level of comfort with the dying process made it easier for the entire family. Her gentle nature helped us plan and organize an event no one looks forward to.Her ability to bring our family together to organize in a way that worked for everyone was amazing.The support she showed my mom in her final months was truly a blessing.The support she showed me as I cared for my mom full-time leading up to her death gave me the strength and self belief to realize that I could really do this.

Pashta has an amazing way with people.She made an effort to get to know as many friends and family as possible before the passing so she would be a familiar face at the funeral she was leading.The funeral and Ceremony were beautiful, personal and deeply moving.Pashta's kindness, support and help let our family be at peace before the passing and feel taken care of after.

From all of us we can't thank her enough for everything and would like to recommend her for anyone looking for a similar experience. (DS, daughter)
