Joining in on the Last Wishes Tea Room session held in such a safe, intimate, sacred space, to discuss a very personal decision I had made, was a truly amazing experience, thank you to all who made it possible.
The Last Wishes Tea Room proved to be a safe place in which to explore questions around death and dying. Amanda’s gentle facilitation enabled me to clarify my thoughts whilst being inspired by the sharing of my fellow participants.
Purpose
Last Wishes Tea Rooms are a safe space to talk about any issues or concerns about death and dying. Our world is currently in this extraordinary state with Covid 19 highlighting heightened death rates in daily news. Awareness of our mortality has never been at such global levels in our modern age.
We cover a variety of end of life considerations, from topics with slightly heavier themes, to lighter more joyful reflections. Last Wishes Tea Rooms can gently guide end of life conversations or open your awareness to the vast variety of options available for you and your loved ones.
How to Prepare
We encourage you to take a moment before you join us in a Last Wishes Tea Room, make yourself your own calming cup of tea and join us on Zoom.
These Tea Rooms are designed to support and empower you around your end of life choices. Last Wishes Tea Rooms are not group therapy or grief counselling, but our conversations are therapeutic, real and refreshing despite the theme.
While details of conversations are confidential in the space you might find your experience a conversation starter with someone who has never been to a Last Wishes Tea Room, or a loved one who you wish to talk to more about this sensitive subject.

Mexican Day of the Dead
One of my most memorable holidays has to be a visit to Mexico to take part in the The Mexican Festival of the dead – El Dia de los Muertos.
This festival is a sacred celebration that takes place on ‘All Saints Day,’ October 1st which is an important part of the Catholic Church calendar and ‘All Souls Day,’ November 2nd. This is when the veil between the two worlds is at its thinnest – a pagan belief when this world and the ‘Otherworld’ meets.
