As many of you know, I am a Reiki Master and the founder of Reiki Training Institute.  I have been offering Reiki for over 25 years. I am also a certified hypnotherapist and RTT therapist. Sessions are adapted to suit my client's needs, and I often blend my skills to offer unique support. For more information, you are welcome to look at my website: 

. Sessions are available in Redondo Beach, Culver City, and online.  

What some of you don't know is my involvement and interest in education regarding death and dying. In 1997, I volunteered at an Aids Hospice offering Reiki to end-of-life patients. The profound sacredness of death struck me, and I was deeply moved by the patients I met there. I went on to take the VA Hospitals Twilight Brigade Training and became a hospice volunteer there in 2012.  The more time I spent with people close to death and dying, the more I wanted to learn, not only for myself but to be able to support others. I became a certified Death Doula and Death Midwife with Olivia Bareham at the Sacred Crossings Institute in 2013. To this day, I continue attending events and gatherings in the death and dying education community. Let's face it: we are all going to die, so why not talk about it? I am inviting you to watch this movie. It may alleviate some of the fear most of us carry in this death-phobic culture. 



I always feel deeply honored to be with someone in their last days, and I am so happy that this documentary was made and is available for us all to share.  

Thank you, Ethan Sisser, for your courage, wisdom, and grace.

Ethan Sisser, a young man with terminal brain cancer, sits alone in his hospital room. When he starts livestreaming his death journey on social media, thousands of people around the world join to celebrate his courage. Still, Ethan envisions more – to teach the world how to die without fear. To do that, he needs to film his death. Honoring Ethan's wish, his doctor Aditi Sethi transports him to an idyllic house in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. What unfolds next is a story rarely glimpsed: how a community of strangers helps a young man die with grace. A sensory immersion into leaving the body, “The Last Ecstatic Days” reveals a man who will not let us forget him – even after he’s taken his final breath.
