In this episode we talk about the process of death, and touch on many of the questions and decisions that need to be made, so that you can be prepared if and when death affects your family.

It's a step away from our usual mortuary and embalming talk, but after speaking with hundreds and hundreds of people, we have realised that most people first encounter their local funeral director when they are forced into planning the funeral of a loved one who has died. Unfortunately, this is not the best time, when shrouded by loss and grief, to be making snap decisions on inclusions that will shape the way your person is farewelled, and remembered.

So what we are saying to you is this - get educated. Know what your choices are before you are in this situation. And, if possible, know what your loved ones - your parents, spouse or partner, siblings and kids would want for their final sendoff, long before those decisions need to be acted upon.

We mention the Natural Death Care Centre in this pod, so as promised, here is the link: www.naturaldeathcarecentre.org

In this podcast we discuss the fear of death and suggest some strategies to alleviate this fear that have worked for us and others in the past. Whether it's the fear of your own death, of someone you love, even a pet dying - or the fear of your body being vulnerable after death, these are all common fears that people have been writing in to us for years.

Now, as we say in the pod, we are not trained counsellors, and these strategies are only suggestions - so please, if you are struggling with any feelings that are affecting the way you live your life, we really recommend you seek professional help - your doctor or a telephone helpline is a great place to start - there's no need to suffer alone.

We hope you enjoy this pod.

Til next time,

stay safe,

In this episode we share a few spooky stories from the mortuary and beyond - just for a change of pace and something different. While recording this we were trying out a new location to improve sound quality - check our insta for more details - but let's just say it made for added 'freak factor' for us during recording.

We hope you enjoy this pod and a huge thanks to everyone who sent in their spooky stories.

Til next time,

Take care,
