VIGIL

​

The last hours and days can provide moments of heartfelt connection, but can also be exhausting and heartbreaking for those in attendance.  During Bedside Vigil, I help to create a peaceful and sacred space for the last moments of life.  These services may include curating a space that is comforting and peaceful through aromatherapy, music, and creating an altar of photos and special items.

​

I can provide non-medical support for an individual during their final hours.  This can include a sitting vigil with an individual preparing to cross the threshold, or to comfort and care for family members during this time.  I offer respite for family members so that they can take care of any errands and appointments they have whilst I step in as a bedside companion.  It is important to take care of your own needs and I can read, pray, meditate and sit with your loved one.

​

$60 per hour.  Minimum 2 hours, Maximum 5 hours.
