“When you own your breath, nobody can steal your peace.” ~ Anonymous

Shamanic Breathwork is a powerful practice that helps us to go deeply into the light and dark spaces of our psyches to retrieve lost parts, to reconcile old wounds and to rewrite limiting stories and beliefs that have held us back.

The breath can take us where we can hear the whispers of our souls and step into our sacred purpose.

If ever there were a time for you to show up in your fullest and most authentic expression, it is now.

WHEN: May 25, 2024, 2-6PM

WHERE: St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church, Nehalem, OR

Program Cost: $88 (Partial Scholarships available through 5/21)

Registration is required: forms.gle/LuU68Mj5sJ954eqm9

An Expert’s Guide to Green Burial and More

Submitted By: margo@northcoasteolcollective.com – Click to email about this post
Date: June 4th @ 6-7 pm AND June 5th 12-1 pm (PST) Offering: An Expert’s Guide to Green Burial and More Location: Virtual (Zoom) Registration (required) www.northcoasteolcollective.com/events-one/an-experts-guide-to-green-burials-and-more Presenter: Elizabeth Fournier, Author of The Green Burial Guidebook, Funeral Director, National Speaker
Description: Every year, conventional funerals bury millions of tons of wood, concrete, and metals, as well as millions of gallons of carcinogenic embalming fluid. There is a more environmentally conscious and affordable way, and Elizabeth Fournier, affectionately dubbed the “Green Reaper,” walks you through it. She provides comprehensive and compassionate guidance, covering everything from green burial planning and home funeral basics to legal guidelines and outside-the-box options, such as burials at sea. Fournier points the way to green burial practices that consider both the environmental well-being of the planet and the economic well-being of loved ones.
Bio: Elizabeth Fournier began her career in 1990 in Portland, where she was employed as the live-in nightkeeper, sleeping in a trailer in a Portland, Oregon, cemetery. Thirty-three years later, she is a one-woman funeral service in the rural town of Boring, Oregon. Elizabeth owns and operates Cornerstone Funeral Services where she is affectionately known as “The Green Reaper” for her green burial advocacy. She is also the Manager of Historic Columbian Cemetery, Portland’s newest green burial choice, and author of The Green Burial Guidebook: Everything You Need to Plan an Affordable, Environmentally Friendly Burial. She serves on the Advisory Board of the Global Green Burial Alliance, gave a TEDx talk called “Going Green: The Last Act of Environmental Volunteerism,” and People Magazine honored her work by writing, “Elizabeth Fournier is doing her part to change the way Americans bury their dead.”
Note: Ms. Fournier offered this presentation in Nehalem in April to a standing-room-only audience. Consistent with the Collective’s mission, the same offering will be available virtually for those unable to attend in person. To learn more about Elizabeth Fournier, visit her websites: The Green Reaper and Cornerstone Funeral.

Modern-era clinical trials show psilocybin-assisted therapy brings “immediate, substantial and sustained” relief from anxiety and depression in patients with advanced cancer. Palliative care providers are eager to add a new palliative care tool to their toolbox to address non-physical suffering. This presentation will briefly review the trials and findings, the prohibited status of psilocybin under current law, and efforts to evolve the law to allow access for therapeutic purposes. The discussion will include Oregon’s pioneering Psilocybin Services Act, the first state law to legalize and regulate this substance despite its federal status.
