Journey Home for Empowered Living and DyingÂ
Founded by Renee Moor, Journey Home is a registered charity providing services and support to those living with loss, those with palliative and terminal diagnoses, and anyone seeking to explore empowered living and dying.
We are an inclusive organization offering education and advocacy, bereavement support, and end-of-life doula services to ensure
respect, dignity, and honour at end of life.
Our Services:
Education and Advocacy - Empowerment through knowledge
Journey Home empowers our clients with the options and rights they have as patients and caregivers, and we advocate for you when the medical system becomes too exhausting to manage on your own.
Journey Home offers free workshops, death cafes, and one-on-one discussions to demystify the logistics of palliative care, provide death preparedness and manage caregiver fatigue. See all Education and Advocacy services
Bereavement Support - Managing grief in many ways
Journey Home provides private grief sessions for individuals and families as well as hosts grief support groups. In our group sessions, we facilitate a supportive environment to connect with others who understand the impacts of grief and share insights and coping strategies.
Our intimate grief yoga and meditation programs allow you to express and explore healing in using a structured practice. Yoga and meditation classes are registered/paid sessions. See all Bereavement services
Doulas - Compassionate listening, end-of-life planning, and MAiD support
Not unlike a birth doula, Journey Home’s doulas connect with clients and their loved ones to provide comfort, support and practical advice in a time of chaos and confusion. End of life doulas help our clients create peaceful and meaningful memories as they relinquish control and surrender to their journey home.
Our doula programs are customized for each client. Compassionate listening and end-of-life planning can provide both comfort and a sense of control. For those seeking MAiD, our doulas help navigate the decision-making process as well as the paperwork and logistics. See all Doula services
