No One Gets Out of Here Alive

“Grief is not a feeling it is a capacity. It is not something that disables you, we are not on the receiving end of grief we are on the practising end of grief.”
― Stephen Jenkinson, Die Wise: A Manifesto for Sanity and Soul

The first of a thought provoking two part chat with the world renowned author, storyteller, musician and culture activist,Stephen Jenkinson, MTS, MSW . In 2010, he founded Orphan Wisdom, a house for learning skills of deep living and making human culture that are mandatory in endangered, endangering times.

“Dying is active. Dying is not what happens to you. Dying is what you do. Dying”
― Stephen Jenkinson, Die Wise: A Manifesto for Sanity and Soul

Die Wise – A Manifesto for Sanity and Soul, is Stephen Jenkinson’s book about grief, and dying, and the great love of life. Published by North Atlantic Books.

Stephen's book, Die Wise does not offer seven steps for coping with death. It does not suggest ways to make dying easier. It pours no honey to make the medicine go down. Instead, with lyrical prose, deep wisdom, and stories from his two decades of working with dying people and their families, Stephen Jenkinson places death at the center of the page and asks us to behold it in all its painful beauty. Die Wise teaches the skills of dying, skills that have to be learned in the course of living deeply and well. Die Wise is for those who will fail to live forever

Rosie Inman Cook of http://www.naturaldeath.org.uk and Association of Natural Burial Grounds's first of a three part podcast that will walk you along a heart to heart journey of life into death, perhaps to begin to plant seeds of preparation in plenty of time for death.

Did you know you can have the choice of a home burial or woodland ending?

An empoweringly honest and eye opening conversation that may surprise you at times and will reassure the whole way though.

Rosie has her feet firmly in the importance of families having a time rich experience

So give yourself some time perhaps with a cup of tea to hear Rosie and Holly having a refreshingly real conversation about unexpected subjects like

"The Mortuary express"

How to keep a "well behaved" dead body at home.

The great “leave the land for the living” swindle.

"Doing your driving test having never driven a car."

Or even digging graves when heavily pregnant! Yes you read that right!


Two impressively wise individuals talking naturally about burials.

Who have the knowledge and wisdom of our ancestors to shed light onto a subject that’s so often kept in the dark.



Dispelling myths and unearthing truth.

Bring peace of mind to the facts of death by educating yourself with part one of this podcast.

The first of three deeply responsible and informative conversations between two very wise women who walk, the life to death path, with knowledge and ease.

Words courtesy of the Caroline James.

In this second and final  part of this podcast episode, Holly Lyon-Hawk speaks with Felicity Warner.

Felicity Warner created the idea of Soul Midwifery for the dying after sitting with many hundreds of people at the end of life.

Her pioneering work over the last twenty-five years has brought a new dimension to holistic and spiritual palliative care, both in the UK and abroad (there are now Soul Midwives working in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Europe). She is a respected lecturer, teacher and author of four acclaimed books – ‘Gentle Dying’, ‘A Safe Journey Home’, ‘The Soul Midwives’ Handbook’ and ‘Sacred Oils’.

More about Felicity: 

‘The Soul Midwives’ Handbook’ is a text book used by both complementary therapists and in medical and nursing schools.

After winning two major national awards for her services to the dying, she says:

“To have the validation and support of the UK’s top clinicians  and policy makers is a major step forward for Soul Midwives and the work we do. I am absolutely delighted to have won these prestigious awards, but I’m sharing the honour with all the wonderful Soul Midwives I have trained, who are taking the work out into their communities and helping the dying in many places.”

Felicity was also named End of Life Doula of the Year by The Good Funeral Awards in 2017 in recognition of her services to the bereaved. She holds an honorary Knowledge Exchange Fellowship  with the University of Winchester  and she lectures both internationally and across the UK.

In 2010 Felicity was nominated for the prestigious Woman of the Year award for her campaigning and work in palliative care and was named one of the most Inspirational Women of the Year by the ‘Daily Mail’ in 2017.

Her passion is for doing ordinary work with “extra” ordinary love, supporting the dying and their families, promoting end of life education, and collaborating with important community projects.

Her teachings also focus on understanding the mysteries of death and dying and the less obvious aspects of the journey and how to embrace them.

Part 2 in discussion with:

David Ditchfield is an NDE-inspired artist, composer, near-death experiencer and author

A few years ago, David was dragged under a speeding train in a freak accident. As the surgeons fought to save him, he had a profound Near-Death Experience, visiting the place we go to when we die.   When he woke up in hospital, he found he had acquired astonishing new abilities.

The first, an ability to create dramatic paintings of what he’d seen in the Afterlife. 

The second, the ability to compose classical music, despite being unable to read or write any musical notation to this day. 

His debut symphony premiered at a sell-out orchestral concert to a standing ovation.  He has since composed further classical works, also premiered at sell-out performances and continues to paint and compose. 

His book SHINE ON tells his remarkable story.
