Death Cafe is a discussion group – we welcome free-form conversation about death, whatever that means to the people in the room. There are no agendas, objectives or themes – and we are not a grief support group or educational meeting. Nothing is sold, taught or recruited for.
We simply gather to eat cake, drink tea and discuss death. Our objective is to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their lives.
We are delighted to partner with Porter Loring Mortuaries for Making Your Grief Count, an eight-week grief support group that will meet 11:30 am-1 pm, each Wednesday from July 20 until Sept. 7. We’ll meet at ABODE, 8619 Post Oak Lane.
Ready to volunteer? We’re ready for you! ABODE welcomes experienced and new volunteers, former volunteers, staff, board members and anyone interested in learning more about ABODE and how we make a difference in our Guests’ lives, even at the end of their lives.
Join us for our Thursday Morning Meditation, 11 am-Noon, with Ed Alderette at ABODE and also via Zoom. We reflect on a brief reading and then go into meditative silence.
Family-style lunch follows at Noon.
Join us each Friday for Bedside Room with Yoga with Natalie, 2:30-3:30 pm! Our End of Life Navigator Natalie does a fun and lovely job leading us in gentle stretches and energy and breath work. Even Milo gets into the act!
Come stretch your bones, express your gratitudes, connect with our Guests (and one another) and breathe in the beauty that is ABODE!
Yoga is one of our many contemplative practices here. Everyone is welcome!
