While KellieAnn is recovering from surgery, our good friend Heather Kelly is guest hosting Fan Effect this February with her limited Money Making Sense series live from Sundance 2025. This episode is “Death Education.”  Death is a taboo subject in China. Filmmaker Yuxuan Ethan Wu wants to start the conversation about dying with his short documentary "Death Education," which is now showing at the Sundance Film Festival. Learn why some high school teachers in China now teach classes about death, including having students carry the ashes of 'unnamed' people from a crematorium to a public burial ground in this episode.  Also, how long it took Wu to shoot the film and how much money it cost. The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Fan Effect is sponsored by Megaplex Theatres, Utah's premiere movie entertainment company.

In this episode of The Brilliant Body Podcast, host Ali Mezey, co-producer Florence Popoff and guest Karen Bellone discuss the often avoided topics of death, dying, and the natural capability of the body. They explore deep-seated fears surrounding death, how modern society is distanced from it, and the importance of having open conversations about mortality - of humans and other animals. They also dive into the idea of conscious living and dying, the discrepancies in generational attitudes toward death, and how engaging with the natural cycles of life can expand awareness. Reflective of cultural beliefs and personal experiences, this episode encourages listeners to open up and discuss these difficult yet enriching topics.MORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:www.alimezey.com/personal-geometry-foundationsTransgenerational Healing Films: www.constellationarts.comMORE FLORENCE POPOFF:Website: www.gamriegardens.comInstagram: @gamriegardensMORE KAREN BELLONE:The Seventh Sense website: www.theseventhsense.orgFilm Website: www.kbfilms.comBIO:Founder, Doula, Educator: Karen Bellone, MFA, is a Certified End-of-Life Doula and Death Educator. She is the founder of The Seventh Sense in NY's Hudson Valley, where she is an integral part of a worldwide community that is reigniting the wisdom of death within our modern lives. She is also founder of Exit Strategy for Dying, a monthly Death, Arts and Culture Readers supporting a resource hub to educate and refocus the narrative around death and grief through the lens of arts, culture, storytelling and innovation. Prior to embracing her passion for end-of-life work, Karen has had a long career as an award-winning filmmaker and internationally collected photographer. She received a BFA in Film Production from New York University, and did graduate work with the world-renowned Actors Studio, through their inaugural program at the New School for Social Research.After training and becoming certified with INELDA (International End of Life Doula Association), Karenworked with an innovative hospice in Los Angeles where her skills as a death doula were developed and broadened. In addition to working with patients in various stages of their life journeys, she was responsible for training the volunteer staff, nurses and other hospice and medical professionals to bring more understanding, humanity and compassion into their work with the dying. She spoke regularly with groups, such as the Alzheimer's Project, about the role of the doula at end-of-life, and the space that can be held to bring about ‘a good death'. She believes strongly in the ability to demystify and assuage the fear that surrounds death in our culture and to foster safe passage for the dying, as well as to aid the families and loved ones through grief and bereavement.As a visual artist and storyteller, Karen acquired a multitude of skills throughout her career that unlocked a deep passion for the healing power of visual and auditory perception on human consciousness. She integrated these strengths and resources into tools to bring aid and comfort for those imminently facing their mortality. Working with somatic and sensory awareness, Karen utilizes visual, sound and meditation therapy, personalized guided imagery, and commemoration of the sacred in the form of ritual, legacy and memory work, in order to bring comfort - physically, emotionally, spiritually to celebrate and commemorate the life of the individual. In addition to her ongoing private practice, Karen is currently directing a feature film about living American artist Michelle Stuart, whose work also engages with the elemental and ineffable nature of existence.RESOURCES:Edgar Allan PoeExit strategy for dying (Karen's monthly newsletter)All the Little DeathsAllen GinsbergKaren's Episode A 'Good Death', Death Doula: Embracing Life & Mortality PART ONEIn Buddhism, death is viewed as a natural part of the life cycle and an opportunity for spiritual growth. The concept is deeply intertwined with the notions of impermanence (anicca) and rebirth (samsara). Rather than being an end, death is seen as a transition, where the energy of one's consciousness continues in a new form, influenced by karma—the cumulative effects of one's actions, thoughts, and intentions. The ultimate goal is to break free from the cycle of death and rebirth through enlightenment, which means reaching a state of liberation (nirvana) where the mind is free from suffering and attachment. Mindfulness and acceptance of death are considered essential practices, as they help individuals live more fully and prepare for the moment of death with clarity and peace.Green burial is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional burial practices that emphasizes simplicity, sustainability, and minimal impact on the earth. It typically involves using biodegradable materials, avoiding embalming chemicals, and opting for natural settings like conservation areas or designated green cemeteries. The goal is to allow the body to decompose naturally, returning nutrients to the soil, and preserving the surrounding ecosystem.Lambing season in Scotland, typically from March to May, is a busy and vital time on farms, as thousands of lambs are born each spring. This period is crucial for the meat industry, with farmers carefully tending to both ewes and newborns to ensure their health and growth. While lambing is often seen as a symbol of renewal and the start of spring, it is also a time of intense labor and long days for shepherds, who balance the joy of new life with the practical realities of raising livestock for food production.A Dream Within a DreamBY EDGAR ALLAN POETake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow —You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yet if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?

Dr. Kenneth Doka and Alex Lamorie of the Hospice Foundation of America's Autism and Grief Project are advocates for people with autism. Dr. Doka is a prolific author, editor, and lecturer, past president of the Association for Death Education and Counseling, and a member and past chair of the International Work Group on Death, Dying, and Bereavement.

For any professional who works with grieving adults, having awareness of the needs of persons on the autism spectrum is an important part of their education. Adults with autism can be overlooked by bereavement and grief workers because their grief expression might look maladaptive, perceived as inappropriate, or not present at all. Alex, along with other autistic adults, contributes a vital perspective in his role as an advisor for the Autism and Grief Project. The Autism & Grief Project provides resources for persons with autism, their families or intimate network, and grief and bereavement professionals. You can find the Project at autismandgrief.org.

Preaching for the Fifth Sunday of Easter, Lisa Mersereau offers a reflection on remaining in God's love from her perspective as a hospice chaplain: "The stories I hear about how a dying person has maintained a prayer life are as amazing as God is. Many reflect upon how God is with them and how they know God is with them in their final illness. There is an unwavering belief that there's mutual love flowing between them and God. By Jesus saying, 'Remain in me, as I remain in you,' we can interpret that as, 'Know that love is present to you now and will be forever as I remain in you and you remain in me.' This is one of the many things I have learned at the bedside of my patients." Lisa Mersereau, CT is a graduate of Catholic Theological Union in Chicago, IL, with a Master of Arts in Pastoral Studies degree. Recently, she became a Certified Thanatologist with the Association for Death Education and Counseling by being certified in Thanatology: Death, Dying, and Bereavement. Lisa is employed at Uni Care Hospice in Escondido, CA as a Chaplain and Bereavement Coordinator and is an active ministry volunteer at Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcala. She happily lives in the San Diego area. Visit www.catholicwomenpreach.org/preaching/04282024 to learn more about Lisa, to read her preaching text, and for more preaching from Catholic women.

La death education promuove percorsi di riflessione sulla morte sul morire per elaborare il lutto e la morte in modo consapevole. È un campo di studio interdisciplinare che si concentra sull'educazione e sulla sensibilizzazione riguardo alla morte, al morire e al lutto, con lo scopo di fornire agli individui una comprensione più approfondita di questi temi, aiutandoli ad affrontarli in modo più consapevole. Ciò che propongo con i miei workshop è sperimentare laboratori di death education attraverso la danza butō e il mio metodo FÜYA. Trovo suggestivo riportare la poetica e la pratica della danza butō al momento della nostra morte. Come sarebbe trascorrere il nostro “ultimo momento” con una danza? Come sarebbe fare del nostro “ultimo respiro” il volo dell'ultima foglia d'autunno? Come sarebbe disegnare con il nostro corpo quell'ultima forma insegnata dalla danza butō, facendo come se fossimo un fiore che sboccia? Come sarebbe aprire il nostro “ultimo sguardo” su questo mondo come se stessimo spalancando una finestra sull'eternità? Queste sono alcune riflessioni che propongo ai miei allievi.

Summary:A recent change in the mental health field has upset therapists and grievers alike, as one type of grief was recently tagged with a DSM-5 diagnosis code, making it an official mental health disorder. Marj and I discuss this and come to a conclusion. See if you agree.Notes:Marj Smith, LCSW, has over 15 years of experience  with specialties in grief and life transitions, as well as a variety of challenges experienced as adults. She is a member of the Association for Death Education and Counseling (ADEC) and obtained her MSW in 2004 from Roberts Wesleyan University in Rochester, NY.  Her varied career has offered her the opportunity to develop skills in many settings. Contact:www.asiliveandgrieve.cominfo@asiliveandgrieve.comFacebook:  As I Live and GrieveInstagram:  @asiliveandgrieveTo Reach Marj:Email:  marj@healwithmarj.comWebsites:     https://zencare.co/provider/therapist/marjorie-smith   https://www.psychologytoday.com/profile/1127612Call or Email Marj for a free 15 minute consultation - (585) 728-4751Credits: Music by Kevin MacLeod The Future AgeWe explore creative solutions and re-imagine what life as we get older can look like.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show
