Sarah Kerr, PhD - The Centre for Sacred Deathcare

Ritual helps us create meaning when death and grief pull the rug out from under us.

In our Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification Program, students learn how to bring ritual into both the smallest and the most profound moments of the dying process, supporting people before, during, and after the last breath.

If people around you don’t understand your sensitivities to death or the unseen, you may have learned to hide these parts of yourself.

It may be that you are a Deathwalker, but haven’t had support or validation to claim those healing gifts.

A Deathwalker is someone naturally called to offer soul-based support to dying and grieving people. This archetypal pattern exists in many of us, but mainstream culture doesn’t understand it.

Without reflection and guidance from people around us, it’s hard to know how to move forward with these gifts.

What you experience is real, and valid. You carry a medicine that the world needs, but t’s hard to know how to be with it until you understand it.

This self-study course will help you understand the healing gift you carry and find concrete next steps for translating it into service for your family or community

When someone isn’t able to face the reality that they’re dying, it may look like denial, but most of the time it’s overwhelm. The truth can feel too big to hold.

As a family member, friend, or practitioner, knowing which simple questions to ask can often open a doorway to healing that respects the person’s choices, and invites deeper conversation.

If you’re called to support dying and grieving people, or have a sense that death is part of your life’s path, even if you don’t exactly know what that looks like yet, you may be a Deathwalker

🪻Comment PATH and I’ll send you the details for Understanding the Deathwalker’s Path, a self-study course designed to help you understand your Deathwalker energy and begin exploring its unique medicine.

We are living in a time of profound cultural death and rebirth. The familiar ways of being are changing, and something new needs to emerge.

In order to meet this moment, we are being asked to develop a deeper, more grounded relationship with death itself, and to honor what is leaving so we can create space for what is waiting.

The Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification Program is a six-month, soul-based training in the spiritual, energetic, and ritual dimensions of death and loss.

You’ll develop the understanding and tools to support friends, family, clients, and the wider cultural transformation already underway.

People often ask me how they can stay connected to someone they love who has died.

When a loved one is no longer in a body, your relationship with them can continue in a new form. Learning to recognize that connection is like learning a new language, it takes time and collaboration.

In this video, I share a short teaching that can help you begin developing a structure for communication with your loved ones in the Village of the Ancestors.

If you feel called to learn more about the soul’s journey through death, and how to support ongoing relationships between the living and the dead, this is something we teach in the Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification Program.
