I'm so pleased to see River Arach's presentation on Modern Ancestor Worship at a death and dying event. When these events lean heavily on academic research and scholarship, they tend to reject spirituality and the positive effects an ancestral practice can have on grief and our views about death.

Birth doulas and end-of-life doulas are like the bookends of life; that's a clever way to put it.
I'm pleasantly surprised to see academics researching the role of spiritual healing in death and dying in a non-judgmental way and highlighting the importance of religious tolerance.
