Conscious Health, Personal Care, and Final Wishes
Conscious Health, Personal Care & Final Wishes will ensure that your choices around end-of-life planning reflect your values and priorities.
- Consciously or unconsciously, your past experiences with death and dying shape your responses to EOL planning, death, dying and grief.
- Thoughtful advance-care planning encourages you to critically evaluate what is meant by “dignity.” It’s important to examine the inherent ableism in the view that not being 100% autonomous equals a lack of dignity.
- There is a growing movement toward family/community-led deathcare.
- When considering your health, personal care, and final wishes, it’s helpful to plan as if your death is imminent.
Either consciously or unconsciously, our past informs our present. Your previous experiences with illness, dying, death, grief, and how someone was cared for after they died—including any planning that was or wasn’t in place—have undoubtedly shaped your personal desires and informed your sense of what’s possible and what’s not.
We all have hopes and fears about what might happen (to us and/or the people we leave behind) in the time leading up to our death, at the moment of our death, and after we die. Based on three tools from Willow’s holistic and pragmatic workbook, 7 Tools for Making Sense of Life & Death, Conscious Health, Personal Care, and Final Wishes will ensure that your choices around end-of-life planning reflects your values and priorities. Whether you have days or decades to live, thinking about and preparing for your death will change how you die and inspire you to live your best life now.
