Welcome
Welcome to Death Club I'm Lou, and I'm really glad you're here. This is a place to talk about death, dying and grief openly, without the flinching, the euphemisms, or the quiet way the world usually asks us to carry it alone. My daughter Honey was born and died in the same moment. That changed everything about how I live, and it's why I'm here. I don't have a fixed map for this. I'm walking it too. What I've got is my own story and the things that have helped me, breath, ritual, honest conversation, and a room I went looking for and couldn't find, so I'm building it. These aren't answers. They're ways of listening. You don't need to be in deep grief, or any grief at all, to belong here. Maybe someone you love has died. Maybe you're watching it come. Maybe you're grieving something that doesn't have a name yet. Or maybe you're death curious, nothing to name, just drawn to look at death honestly instead of away. All of it belongs. And it's fine to be uncomfortable here. To not have the right words, or any words. To not know why you're drawn to this, only that you are. You don't need to arrive sure of your ideas or theories or what you believe. Unsure is welcome too. What im building inside: - Breathwork -the practice that taught me to stay with what's hard instead of turning from it. A tool for living, whether you're in grief or not. - Rituals - simple practices for tending the bonds that don't end when someone dies. - Reflections and prompts - honest invitations to sit with grief, love and change. - The monthly gathering - where we come together and talk openly about the things most rooms won't hold. - And each other - somewhere to be witnessed, and to witness someone else. Nothing here is too dark to say. You don't need to be over anything. You just need to be willing to be with it. Come exactly as you are. If you're new, introduce yourself below - your name, and one true thing about where you are right now. No need to explain or tidy it. However you arrive is right

How we are here
How we are here A few things that keep this a place people can be honest in. Not rules so much as how we hold the room. What's said here stays here. Trust is what makes it a real circle. We witness, we don't fix. Nobody here is a problem to be solved. Being seen is enough. Arrive as you are. There's no right way to grieve, or to be here. Silence, tears and laughter all belong. Take what's yours. Stay curious, take what resonates, leave what doesn't. Every way of seeing has a place. Go gently, with yourself and each other. Kindness first, and your own boundaries honoured. Side by side. No gurus, no experts. I'm a few steps along the same path, not above it. We learn from each other. Nothing is too dark to name. That's the whole point of the room. Whatever it is, you can say it here. We are in this together

Rise
Hi everyone so yesterday Irish Oscar winning singer songwriter and actor Glen Hansard died aged 56. I listened to his music throughout my 20s and was lucky to get to go to many of his gigs. I met him back in 2011 and he was just as down to earth as I had imagined and we had a really in depth conversation about healing and the land and all sorts of weird and wonderful things. Well yesterday when I heard he had died in a motorcycle accident I was completely floored. It felt like a close friend had died. And I had only met the guy briefly. But his music had such a profound effect on me and I have even said to friends and my husband that I want some of his songs played at my funeral. I also think when something like this happens it brings up grief that’s already there and gives it a chance to be let out again. I lost a dear friend and my father in law whom I cared for this year. I feel a surge of grief coming up through my heart. Oh and there I go saying lost again! They’re not lost! Quite the opposite. Im yet to find the proper language around all of this 🤷‍♀️ Anyway I’ll share one of his lesser known songs. Together we will rise ❤️https://youtu.be/g9vxn9qiq5Q?is=u-AMuhABFlCagnGl
