Full Circle of Living and Dying Providing End-of-Life and After Death Care Education since 2013 (530)270-9839 |
Note: In our work, and on this website, we use the words family, loved ones, caregiver, and caring circle interchangeably and acknowledge non-traditional "chosen" family and "community" as types of families. It is never our intention to exclude any groups, religious sectors, gender or other in our work or speech. Please contact us you have concerns.

The mission of Full Circle of Living and Dying:
To educate and serve our community in understanding
options and rights for end-of-life care and post-death care.
To empower families and communities in bringing back the tradition
of family led death care through conversation, guidance and local resources.
We are trained End-of-Life Doulas whose passion is to
encourage conversation and help families and caring circles
co-create an end-of-life plan of care.
Documenting your personal wishes helps bring about peace of mind.

Monthly Virtual Event ~
Death Conversations: Breaking the silence.
Host: Sushila Mertens, End-of-life doula.
Full Circle of Living and Dying presents: Death Conversations.
Each month our conversations explore how our personal experiences with death might support our acceptance or denial of death.

Death Conversations meets the 3rd Thursday of the month 1:00 PM- 2:30PM PST, for an open conversation. We gather on zoom and reflect on a question or two about death in a safe and supportive zoom call guided by Living Room Conversations agreements and format. Facilitated by end-of-life doulas. Come to one session or every month!

Keeping or bringing a loved one home after death is legal in every state for bathing, dressing, private viewing, and ceremony as the family chooses. Every state recognizes the next-of-kin’s right to custody and control of the body that allows the opportunity to hold a home vigil. Religious observations, family gatherings, memorials, and private events are not under the jurisdiction of the State or professionals in the funeral industry. (More)

Natural Organic Reduction:
Natural Organic Reduction or Human Composting Our virtual presentation was a huge success! The process of natural organic reduction, also known as human composting, gently transforms human remains into soil after death. The presentation included guest speakers from Recompose, the first funeral home to offer Natural Organic Reduction (NOR), and Jenifer Bliss a local resident who shared her personal experience of human composting. We are pleased to offer the recording of this presentation for your educational viewing experience. View video. |
