Details

Receiving the diagnosis of a terminal illness can leave a person feeling a complete loss of control over their life and their choices. When that person will die, and what symptoms they will experience, are determined by the disease or illness they have. In my work as an End-of-Life Doula, I offer my clients a sense of personal empowerment in planning for their final days and hours of life that will reflect their wishes and choices when they are no longer able to choose these for themselves. I can become an advocate to assure these plans are carried out as fully as possible, serve as a compassionate companion for their final journey, and honor their personal visions for dying well. I can also support their loved ones through this time, offering assistance unique to their circumstances. I hope to inspire others to see death as a natural transition with its own innate gifts and beauty, rather than something to be feared and avoided.

My mission is to be a compassionate companion on life’s final journey. With a calm and loving presence, I advocate for the dying person and his/her personal choices about End-of-Life decisions and care, as well as providing much-needed support for the loved ones. Having more than 30 years of experience as a hospice volunteer, along with a background in counseling and gerontology, and now as a Certified End-of-Life Doula, I feel this work is my calling. I am honored to share in this sacred space with my clients. Additionally, I am an ordained interfaith minister, trained in home funerals, and can offer guidance on green burials. I am also an LGBTQIA+ ally and advocate.

My services include, but are not limited to, the following:

Advance Care Planning Facilitator (Certified by Respecting Choices®)
Compassionate companioning for the dying person, as well as respite and support for the caregiver(s)
Guided meditation – help for anxiety and pain relief
Life review – finding meaning in a life lived
Legacy projects – leaving a creative gift, letters, or other legacy project for loved ones
Vigil planning – assisting in the design of a personal plan for the final days and hours of life
Sitting vigil – being at the bedside, holding space, in the final days and hours of life
Guiding the transition process from life to death and into grief and bereavement
Serving as a Home Funeral Guide to help those who want to return to a more traditional, sacred way of caring for our deceased loved ones
Designing, developing and officiating ceremonies including funerals, memorials, life celebrations, weddings, commitment ceremonies and house blessings
Providing support and guidance for both MAiD (Medical Aid in Dying) and VSED (Voluntary Stopping Eating and Drinking)

I understand that supporting our loved ones and maintaining self-care at End of Life can be overwhelming for an individual/family.

I provide loving, nurturing care for the body, mind and soul during the entire dying process. Through heartfelt conversation, divine intuition, an array of healing approaches and spiritual resources, I am that trusted guide. I have directed life transformational retreats for over 15 years and volunteer with Hospice and LIfeSpark Cancer Resources in CO.

A little bit more about me…

I was born in London, Canada, and moved to Colorado over 30 years ago. I presently live in the beautiful mountains outside of Durango, CO. My journey from a telecommunications corporate manager to a transformational well-being/spiritual retreat leader and intuitive healer commenced in 2004. Since then, I have owned and operated a B&B and Retreat & Holistic Healing Centers. I have been developing and leading transformational individual and small group healing and spiritual retreats for over 15 years in Colorado.

I love to naturally intuit or co-create personal comfort care sessions to meet the dying one’s evolving care needs during all phases of the transition process.

I serve the Durango Area and Four Corners Region, including Bayfield and Mancos.

A Complimentary Care Guide called, Durango End-of-Life Doula Care Guide – A Loving Approach to Death & Dying, written and prepared by Christine is available on her website (Available on my website)

“Dying with Grace: A Sacred Transition”, is an article that was written by me and published in EPIC Magazine Durango Edition Jan/Feb 2020. The article focuses on the contemplation of your beliefs around dying and creating a vision for your death.

My professional “calling” is to create End of Life Tributes/ Celebrations for the dying. Also known as “Living Funerals”. Living funerals offer a unique opportunity for not only the guest of honor to share life stories, but for others to share stories, thoughts, quotes, poems about how the guest of honor has impacted their life. Tributes can be intimate or large and held at any type of venue.

I interview the guest of honor and any family/ friends they desire to be present. I compile my notes into a professionally crafted ceremony to include wonderful stories, poems, quotes, music, etc. The guest of honor has the final approval of the celebration. I then officiate the celebration and provide a beautiful ceremony keepsake.

Other examples of legacy projects include: audio/ video interviews, letters, memory boxes/books, mementos, seasonal: holidays, ornaments, memorial gardens, anniversaries etc.

I am also a member of Rocky Mountain Life-Cycle Celebrants, a collective of celebrants certified by the Celebrant Foundation & Institute.

Details

My passion is being of service to others. My journey began in a classroom setting in the Pacific Northwest, working with Severely Emotionally Disturbed children for 15 years. I took those skills with me when I moved to Los Angeles, and organized, coordinated and managed the High Noon Western Americana Antique Show and Auction, held in AZ. One of the biggest components of my job was accommodating the needs of others. In this scenario, it was special clients, including famous artists, authors, celebrities, film actors, the elite and their entourage. Though this world was fast-paced and exciting, I believed that I had a higher calling.

Those majestic Rocky Mountains pulled me back to my beloved Colorado, where I began a path of spiritual work, which included becoming an Intuitive Energy Healer, an Angelic Reiki Master, a Spiritual Counselor, Interfaith Minister, Meditation Teacher and Medium.

Through my healing work and mediumship, I found that I could help my clients to overcome their worst fears, including their fear of death. This led me to explore my own inner work around death, and the calling to be of service to others at the end of life.

Being present with a family and their dying pet is a benevolent and humbling experience. It is my honor to hold space for animals as they journey towards the rainbow bridge.

Pets are irreplaceable members of our family, and as such, their death can hurt very deeply. As a Companion-Animal End-of-Life Doula, I provide compassionate, in-home care and hospice support for senior pets, as well as those with chronic or terminal illness, and holistic and spiritual support for their human family.

I believe all life is Sacred, and in the circle of life, the end of life can be as beautiful as the beginning. I am also an LGBTQIA+ ally and advocate.

I offer the following benevolent services:

Pet Respite Care, Pet Hospice Care, Intuitive Animal Communication
Reiki for pets and their human companions (in-person or distance)
Create a peaceful environment
Spiritual Guidance
Sit Vigil / Hold Space
Explore home funeral & burial options
Co-create any or all of the following:
- Life Review: Pet Remembrance Journal
- Memorial Altar
- Family Rituals
- Grounding & Meditation
- Grief Support Circle
- Living Funeral
- Crossing-over Ceremony
- Celebration of Life

Qualifications:

Pet Hospice & Death Doula Training 2020, Advanced Death Doula Training 2020, Death Doula Masterclass 2018, Animal Communication & Advanced Concepts of Inter-species Connection; Angelic Reiki Master, Spiritual Counselor, Interfaith Minister, Animal Intuitive & Spirit Medium.

My mission is to be the consistent advocate for your family. I will honor the dignity of your family and abide by the values that at so sacred to you. My steady presence and guidance is something I hope will bring you peace and comfort as we navigate this together.

My name is Kerri L’Etoile and this work has been a dream of mine for many years, I am from Cape Cod Massachusetts, where I began a career in healthcare spanning 25+ years. During this time I was privileged to work with some of the most incredible and talented people. My experience included rehabilitation and assisted living facilities, emergency room, obgyn, pain management and oncology. Working for the Cape Cod Hospital for more than 13 years gave me opportunity for the experience and education that I now have and use every day. I made the big decision to move to Colorado in 2015. Moving so far from home and family was a massive change for me. For the fist couple of years, I felt I was a little lost. In that time frame, my father passed away from a short illness with bile duct cancer. I knew I needed to find my calling, something to make a difference. After some thought, I decided to return to my family roots and study Mortuary Science. I come from a family of Undertakers going back to the 1940’s. My Great Grandfather owned, operated and lived in our family funeral home. This prompted me to look for a way to dig deeper into that passion I’ve always had. I enrolled in the Mortuary Science program at Arapaho Community College. Finishing the program in two and half years, proudly making the Deans list each semester. Shortly after completion of the program, I became a Funeral Director. After four years of what I considered an amazing fit for me, I realized I needed to do more for families. I knew families needed me to help them along this path that can be scary and uncertain. I wanted to work even closer with families and do it in the ways I knew they needed…Guiding families to face loss with less fear and more love.

With the education and experience I have, I can offer families help in so many different ways. I will be available to families short or long term to guide with the imminent passing of a loved one. Families will know I am there for them when they need me to sit vigil, answer questions and help navigate next steps. I having extensive training in ritual bathing and dressing loved ones, many different religious ceremonies, spiritual work and honesty, knowing to hear families when they know what is needed for their level of comfort.

I am versed on Colorado laws in reference to cremation and burials. I have the knowledge to help with paperwork that is needed for each and the dynamics of family that is coupled with this. I am also a Certified Notary in the state of Colorado. This can be helpful for some families regarding final disposition planning.

I am passionate about family taking care of family. I want it to be known that is is ok to be as close as you are comfortable during these times. I believe in the power of music, talking to our loved ones and being surrounded by peace and comfort.

I look forward to adding cremation jewelry and keepsakes for families in the future. Another addition is prayer cards and service folders. Please ask about these items as I am more than happy to provide these, along with slideshows.

Some of my professional qualifications.

Degree in Mortuary Science
Certified Death Doula
Funeral Director
Emergency Room
Pain Management
Diagnostics/ EKG
OBGYN
Death and Dying
Mortuary Hair and cosmetics
Elderly/Palliative care
Living Funerals for terminally ill
Vigils
Life Story of loved one incorporated into funeral services

Death is no more than passing from one room into another. But there’s a difference for me, you know.

Because in that other room I shall be able to see.

MEANING. PURPOSE. HEALING. SPIRITUALITY.

We are a spiritual center for individuals seeking meaning, purpose, and healing in The Afternoon of Life (midlife and beyond).

We are Ariela and Baruch HaLevi, co-founders of Soul Centered, and a couple who is passionate about reimagining The Afternoon of Life (midlife and beyond).

Our mission is to empower our clients and community in consciously creating new goals, proactively designing new rules, and practically implementing new tools, as they discover their innate healing wisdom, live wholeheartedly, and unleash their soul in ways that are only possible during The Afternoon of Life.

Why we created Soul Centered

Soul Centered was created to provide a place for anyone seeking to consciously face the crossroads of midlife and courageously journey through the Afternoon of Life.

For over twenty years we dreamed of building a spiritual center where people could engage in self discovery and soul exploration, uncovering deeper meaning within their struggles, realize their true purpose in this life, and experience holistic healing through all of life’s traumas and tragedies.

This dream has been motivated by professional passions, as well as personal desires.

All of our life we have longed for a spiritual home based on universal truths, drawing upon all wisdom traditions, incorporating spiritual practice, informed by intellect, infused with holistic healing and filled by people seeking conscious community, desiring to support one another on their journey.

Although we built variations of this throughout our careers, and discovered pieces of this in places ranging from synagogues and churches to yoga studios and zen centers, from counseling and healing centers to new age communities across the world, we never fully realized what we were looking for…

So, we founded Soul Centered.

As The Healer (Ariela) and The Guide (Baruch), we utilize our signature programs and pathways, empowering you to:

Discover the possibilities within your struggles and potential within your shadows (Meaning)
Uncover your authentic self and realize your true purpose (Purpose)
Express your emotions as a pathway to liberate your body and live with inner freedom (Healing)
Wake up to your spirit, letting it guide you forward in your life (Spirituality)

Ariela is available to be your Healer if….

Pulling from the experience of her own midlife awakening, her powerful intuition, and utilizing her training in energy healing and soul retrieval guidance, Ariela will provide the healing you need so that you can embrace everything that the Afternoon of Life has to offer you

Midlife feels more like a crisis than an awakening and you need support navigating this new terrain
You long for a deeper connection to your body, to increase the capacity to feel, to love and accept yourself fully
You feel lonely and disempowered in your relationships, unable to find your true voice and worthiness
You want to discard old masks of identity, roles, titles, and the expectations of others.
You have experienced the heartache of a loss: loss of a loved one, loss of a relationship, loss of yourself
Illness and chronic issues have caused so much fear and frustration that your body feels like a burden and not a joy

Baruch is available to be your Guide if…

You are standing at one of life’s many crossroads, or as he calls them, “Life’s T’s” (Transitions, Tests, Trials, Traumas or Tragedies)…

Seeking a trusted guide to help you find your way forward through relationship struggles, midlife uncertainty, or professional emptiness
Grieving the death of a loved one, looking for a companion to stand by your side, support and empower you
Searching for spiritual direction in your life, and a deeper connection to your soul
Longing to discover deeper meaning at your crossroads, and realize a greater purpose for your life
Ready to transform the Afternoon of Life into the most important, impactful, and inspirational time of your life

Combining his unique training and experience as a Rabbi, Grief Counselor, Logotherapist, Spiritual Director, and Enneagram Coach, Baruch will guide you through your crossroads, empower you to transcend your loss, and inspire you in discovering deeper meaning, and greater purpose, in your Afternoon of Life.

Programs and Groups:

Carry The Fire with Baruch and Ariela HaLevi

This program offers you a holistic healing pathway (body, mind, emotions & spirit) on your journey through grief at any point after the death of a loved one.

Drawing upon ancient wisdom traditions, universal spiritual practices, and modern therapeutic insights and tools, you will discover meaning and purpose within your loss and learn how to transform your darkness into light.

Your Sacred Body with Ariela HaLevi

This program offers you a new, unique way to maximize your self-healing capacity, manifesting abilities, intuition, and the spiritual insight needed for the Afternoon of Life.
And, most of all, this program will help you love the skin you’re in — “imperfections” and all.

You will finally feel healed and whole and in partnership with your body, by using the missing ingredients in connection.

Choose Your Own Way with Baruch HaLevi

This program offers you proven wisdom, sound strategies and practical tools to navigate the Crisis Crossroads, or one of Life’s T’s: transitions, tests, trials, traumas or tragedies, with more clarity, deeper meaning and greater purpose.

No matter what you are facing, enduring or seeking, there is a way forward. It begins when you take back your power, consciously choose your path, and courageously step into the unknown. This program will support you, empower you and guide you as you learn to Choose Your Own Way!

Your Soul Choice – A Small Group Experience with Baruch HaLevi

The Power To Choose, The Pathway To Freedom

Your Soul Choice: The Power To Choose, The Pathway To Freedom is a program about waking up in the Afternoon of Life, returning to our true self, reclaiming our authentic voice, and owning our divine power as we stop reacting to our circumstances and start responding to our life .

Synthesizing Kabbalah and the purpose of choice, Logotherapy and the power of choice, and the Enneagram and the pathway of choice, Your Soul Choice will empower you to discover deeper meaning, live with greater purpose, and experience ultimate freedom in your life through the power of choice. This is Your Soul Choice.

Details

My story of becoming an end of life doula was deeply painful, life altering and profound. My first memory of being with death is 1987 when my grandma Jeanne was dying at home in the living room. I would go sit on her hospital bed stroke her thinning hair and sing to her… I was 3 years old. This was a foreshadowing of a much harder time to come in 2016 when I lost 2 brothers, my father, grandfather and a pregnancy. I believe significant loss in your 20’s – 30’s in unique and I am here to guide you through that.

I have a gift of arranging space, transmuting and clearing energy, and an intuitive knowing of what’s needed in the final days. I consider it an honor to be in and hold this space for families. It is such an emotional time and often once their is diagnosis we don’t take the time to really understand and create a space for our loved ones to leave this world.

I offer end of life doula services which can include life review and meaning interviews, planning and sitting vigil for your final days, the creation of legacy projects and early grief re-processing. I believe grief belongs in community and for this I offer on-going monthly grief circles, grief cafes and in-person gatherings. Head over to my website for current offerings.

I am trained by the International End of Life Doula Association. I’m certified Reiki II and have completed several other trainings for my own personal development that round out my offerings….studying loving kindness meditation with monks, Landmark Worldwide curriculum for living, mediumship and empowered wisdom, outlaw yoga, essential oils, oracle and tarot cards and crystal use. Last but not least, I’m a LGBTQIA+ ally and advocate.

Interesting facts about me: I have visited 53 countries on 6 continents, lived in China, Australia, France and Germany. I’ve sang in many bands, taught skiing in Vail, guided white water in the Glenwood Canyon, and now own a home in Englewood, CO named Walter that I am gently healing over time using permaculture principles. I offer this space on airbnb.
