- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 30 May, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Sat, 30 May, 2026 at 03:30 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Join Essential Yoga Studio as we welcome Emi and Cecily for The Last Sleep: Death Contemplation and Yoga Nidra Workshop on Saturday, May 30 from 2-330p.
 
Come explore your mortality with certified death doula Cecily Robertson and E-RYT 200, RYT 500 certified yoga teacher Emi Gilbert. If thinking about death feels big, weird, scary, or unthinkable, this workshop is a gentle entry point. It's also a great place to deepen any death work you've already done. 
 
The Last Sleep is a workshop that will guide you through Atisha's nine contemplations of death, followed by a restorative yoga nidra to integrate the experience. These contemplations are meant to be life-affirming. They will ask us to question what we must do within our own lives in order to prepare for a peaceful death. They invite us to sit with mortality, not as a faraway abstraction in the distance, but as an intimate companion who has already arrived. We will provide bolsters, blankets, journaling prompts, and an opportunity to reflect and share. You will also leave with Hospice Foundation for Outreach's Bucket List +1 folder, a comprehensive tool to complete your advance directive. 
 
This is a pay-what-you can workshop with a suggested donation of $25; choose your contribution at checkout. A portion of your contribution will be donated to HFO, whose vision is to bring dignity and compassion to the end-of-life experience.
 
People of all backgrounds, identities, and belief systems are welcome! Dress comfortably and bring a sense of curiosity. 
 
What to Expect:
- Introduction and short flow to get us into our bodies and prepare for stillness
- Guided contemplation of 9 truths of death, in savasana or other resting pose
- Opportunity to journal about your experience and share with the group
- A yoga nidra to integrate the experience and help return to regulation
