Revised and updated with new material, The Soul Midwives’ Handbook offers a compassionate approach to accompanying the dying on their final journey, ensuring a transition filled with love, dignity, and peace.

Felicity Warner’s Soul Midwives movement has revolutionized the face of modern palliative care all over the world. Soul Midwives are trained to honor the unique needs of each individual at every stage of the dying process, offering spiritual, emotional, and holistic support and companionship in various settings–whether at home, in hospices, or care homes.

This essential handbook blends ancient wisdom and forgotten traditions with contemporary holistic practices to redefine end-of-life care and ease the passage of the dying. You’ll discover practical advice for creating an end-of-life plan, helpful prompts for initiating difficult conversations, and inspiration for legacy projects, such as recipe books, photo albums, and audio recordings.

You’ll also explore spiritual end-of-life care, including techniques for soothing soul wounds; guided visualizations for easing pain; energy healing instruments, ceremonies, and rituals; and advice for holding vigils for people of different faiths. Ultimately, you’ll learn how to create sacred, peaceful spaces to help the dying feel safe and comfortable on their final journey.

Whether you’re a caregiver, healthcare professional, or someone looking to bring comfort to a loved one, The Soul Midwives’ Handbook equips you with the tools and wisdom to approach death with grace, compassion, and profound tranquillity.
