Death Cafe
DEATH CAFE
Monday, July 15, 2024, from 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm at Explore Booksellers, Upstairs
Gather in a comfortable setting to drink tea, eat cake, and have a meaningful conversation about death.
As we respectfully connect at this Death Cafe, we understand that like birthing into this world, dying is also a human event. This is not a grief support group or counseling session. It is an authentic group-directed discussion to increase awareness of end-of-life & dying. Our time together may shed light and bring curiosity to this topic which is inevitable for all. Perhaps talking about death will help us make the most of our time in this finite life. We can express what’s most important to us in our lives & enjoy living to our fullest potential.

His work builds a bridge between the practical and the mystical, connecting the healing, inspiration, and empowerment of altered states with an embodied awareness of one's unique gifts, and the opportunity to live a profoundly impactful and purposeful life.
Brooks has been working with cannabis as a psychedelic since 2021 and has found it to be one of the most potent and effective psychedelic medicines out there.
