Many residents of the Highlands have embraced the "death-positive" movement, which hopes to shape the endings of our stories. When a doctor told Lisette Cheresson's family that their mother was no longer eligible for a liver transplant, they decided to take her home immediately. "The doctor was flabbergasted," says Cheresson, a Beacon resident whose mother died in 2018 in North Carolina. "He said: 'Are you sure? We can keep her alive.' " "We had to honor what we promised her," she recalls. "Mom didn't want to die in a hospital." They hired a private ambulance to take her home that evening. Family members were at her bedside when she died the next morning. "It was one of the most profoundly beautiful moments of my life," says Cheresson. "It is transcendent when people are given an opportunity to experience these sacred intimate moments in ways that are meaningful to them." As part of a growing movement that has been described as "death positive," people in the Highlands and around the country are looking for ways to embrace life's final moments and turn death into something beautiful and meaningful. The movement is driven by death doulas, podcasters, hospices, writers, singers, funeral directors and "death café" facilitators. In part motivated by her experience with her mother, Cheresson joined an army of doulas, also known as death midwives, who help families talk openly about dying and individuals achieve a "good death." Hudson Valley Hospice, which serves Dutchess and Ulster counties, has trained about 80 end-of-life doulas since 2017, said Lisa Wilson, a spokesperson. Wilson said the doulas help plan and manage the final days of patients' lives to ensure they have a good death, including the friends, music and even smells they want present in their final moments. "They talk with them about how they want the end to go," she says. Doulas also help with legacy projects such as farewell videos and letters. She says a doula helped a Fishkill woman in her 90s assemble a board of photographs to be displayed at her wake. Words and music Talking about death is the idea behind the death café that Ryan Biracree began last summer at the Desmond-Fish Public Library in Garrison, where he works as the digital services librarian. "Discuss death, dying and the dead - with tea and cake," read his promotion for a session held Feb. 25. (The next one is March 17.) Since 2011, there have been more than 17,600 such gatherings worldwide, according to deathcafe.com, a site created by Jon Underwood in London after he was inspired by "café mortals" held at bistros in Geneva by a Swiss sociologist, Bernard Crettaz. When Underwood died suddenly in 2017 at age 44, his mother and sister took over. (Underwood also founded a consumer site for people to review funeral directors.) The first death café in the U.S. took place in Columbus, Ohio, in 2012. "Death cafés allow people space to talk about things without getting weird looks from family and friends," says Biracree. The sessions typically draw 20 to 30 people. Rather than talking, singing to the dying is the idea behind the Threshold Choir, co-founded 10 years ago by Cat Guthrie, a Garrison singer-songwriter. The choir visits the bedsides of the sick and dying to perform a repertoire that might include "We Are All Walking Each Other Home," "Rest Easy" and "I Am Giving You Light." The first Threshold Choir sang in California in 2000; today there are more than 200 worldwide. Guthrie's choir sings twice a month at bedsides around the Hudson Valley, including at the Rosary Hill Home for terminal cancer patients in Hawthorne. "Music puts you in a different place," says Guthrie, who, along with other family members, "sang out" to her parents when each died years ago. "We have stepped away from being present for people when they are sick and dying," she says.

In 2017, Rachel Weiss watched a TV programme about the menopause and was inspired to hold a Menopause Café. This has now turned into an international movement of pop-up events where women and the men in their lives meet to drink tea, eat cake and talk menopause. The Menopause Café is modelled on the Death Café movement, founded by Jon Underwood.  In this episode, Rachel and Andrew talk about women's experiences of menopause and the impact on their lives and relationships. The menopause has long been a taboo subject, and raises profound issues of shame and silence around the female body. Women have suffered due to the lack of knowledge or public conversation about the menopause, and so have their partners.  The Menopause Cafe is playing a crucial role in an increasingly more open discourse on the menopause, helping women to live through this stage of their lives with understanding rather than fear and loneliness.  Follow Up Join our Supporters Club to access exclusive behind-the-scenes content, fan requests and the chance to ask Andrew your own questions.

"Death is like a mirror in which the true meaning of life is reflected" - Sogyal Rinpoche"You needn’t die happy when your time comes, but you must die satisfied, for you have lived your life from the beginning to the end." - Stephen King"No one here gets out alive."

Pop into most cafes and you'll quite easily find tea and cake. Pop into a Death Cafe and you'll be served much more. At a Death Cafe people, often strangers, gather to eat cake and drink tea - as you might expect - but they also gather to discuss death. Death has a stigma of being morbid to bring up and especially to talk about. There's that superstition that you are inviting death closer by discussing it. However, thousands of groups in 51 countries have met up with one another to discuss our finite lives and the inevitable. Death Cafe co-founder, Sue Barsky Reid joins me on the podcast. Sue is a psychotherapist and counsellor, skills she used to the full when creating the Death Cafe concept with her late son, Jon Underwood. Sue tells us why they founded Death Café and how and why this social enterprise has gone from strength to strength. Listen here on episode 046 The Retirement Café Podcast.

WTF is a Blockchain? You’ve heard about Bitcoin. You might have heard the word ‘blockchain’. But what about Ethereum? In this episode, you’ll get the full explanation of what a blockchain is, how cryptocurrencies have value, and how ‘smart contracts’ are shaping the future of transactions. You will then hear about one company using this technology – CPay – which is using the Ethereum blockchain to make everyday payments simpler, faster, more secure, and also provide community benefit. Simon Love speaks with founder Jon Underwood and lead developer Ryan Casey about this fascinating technology. Listen in to hear why Jon says “Ethereum will either thrive or fade away based on how well it can solve real-world problems with smart contracts" Guests: Jon Underwood, Founder and CEO Jon Underwood is the Founder & CEO of Cloud Currencies, dba cPay. Jon sees money like water, and has studied the way money flows for a long time. cPay started with the question “What if we could dig ‘local trenches’ to make money flow where we wanted it to, transforming scarcity into abundance, and creating a new source of economic strength that could ‘flood’ our local economies, building community health and wealth for everyone?” Jon has a strong interest in Rudolf Steiner’s economic indications, often referred to as Associative Economics, and has started numerous ventures and companies. Jon has ongoing interests in local currencies, local foodsheds, local energy, localizing regional economies, community-wide rewards programs, and exploring new corporate governance and management structures that are better able to support the varied interests of the community of stakeholders. Jon received his BA in Economics from U.C. Berkeley, and his ‘Green’ MBA in Sustainable Business form Marylhurst University. Jon and his wife Carrie live near Reed College, along with their two Weimaraners Henry and Evelyn. Ryan Casey, Lead Developer Ryan Casey is a global expert on the Ethereum blockchain, making him an invaluable asset to cPay. A native of Portland, he began programming in the first grade. Ryan has been building web apps since 2011, and has focused almost exclusively on several open source projects using the Ethereum blockchain. A highly skilled programmer, Ryan is part of a global group working on the infrastructure necessary to build out the Ethereum Blockchain ecosystem, and specializes in smart contracts. Ryan states “cPay helps keep capital in the bioregional economy, which enriches all local market participants, and furthermore redirects money that would have otherwise been lost to transnational corporations into projects that directly impact the local quality of life. If you want to improve the region you live in, invest in it.” Ryan is a programmer with Nexus Development and contributor to Maker DAO, and built our payment App from the ground up. He received his B.S. in Computer Science from George Fox University. In this episode you will learn: What is a blockchain? How blockchains function without a central command What is cryptocurrency and how is value created? The difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains What 'mining' is in the context of blockchains, and how value is created How value can come from proof of work or proof of stake The risks of blockchains, such as the 51% attack? How cryptocurrency differs from cash and credit cards How Ethereum can be used with Smart Contracts Why a fixed supply of cryptocurrency (e.g. Bitcoin) is not essential for value storage Why half of the people on the planet will have SOME money stored in the cloud in 5-10 years How CPay is able to minimize transaction fees and donate to charities of the user's choice Links: Ethereum Website: https://www.ethereum.org/ CPay website: http://www.cpay.us CPay Investment Page (OR Residents ONLY): https://secure.hatchoregon.com/offerings/cpay/ Ethereum Wikipedia Page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethereum Vitalik Buterin's writing: https://github.com/vbuterin/scalability_paper/blob/master/scalability.pdf Ethereum community on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/ Bitcoin community on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/

Jon Underwood is the innovative & inspirational founder of the Death Cafe movement. A non-profit initiative getting people together to discuss mortality. It has really captured the public's imagination. Currently, there are over 3,000 Death Cafes in 35 countries around the world and it's growing. Jon explains its origins and shares his other initiatives such as a review site for funeral services and his work with the UK's NHS. deathcafe.com funeraladvisor.org.uk dyingmatters.org impermanenceatwork.org

Apparently the vast majority of us feel uncomfortable talking about death, and haven't spoken to anyone about our end of life wishes. Jon Underwood thinks this is having a profoundly negative effect on society. So he pioneered the Death Cafe movement where people gather together, drink tea, eat cake and talk openly and honestly about death.

Your brain is plastic. No, I didn’t say your brain is made out of plastic, I said your brain is plastic, as in easily shaped or molded. Neuroscientists tells us that by dwelling on a thought, good or bad, we cut a new groove in our gray matter, which then influences our behavior. Even of you’re an old coot like me, born in 1956 and with a brain like a dried fig.  Talking about death cuts a a new groove in your brain, a better groove, one with more awareness and less fear. Yes, we are talking death, with Jon Underwood, founder of the Death Cafe. And honest, open talk is the good heart of any effective Death Cafe: an event where folks can get together over coffee and cake, and just talk. That’s the simple beauty of a Death Cafe. No agenda. No sales pitch. Just real human interaction, eyeball to eyeball, knee to knee. I recorded this interview with Jon Underwood in 2014. He was then, and always will be to me, one of the most gentle, kind, and compassionate people I ever had the honor to know. I admire his work greatly. As the founder of the Death Cafe, Jon encouraged people around the world to discuss, over tea and cake, life, the finality of life and why we fear it. John passed away in 2017.

Sian Williams and Aasmah Mir talk to US political philosopher Michael Sandel who argues that how much we define society by monetary value challenges the very core of our moral selves. Sian and Aasmah also explore notions of death- not in any morbid sense- but firstly with JP Devlin who brings us a 'guerrilla report' from Nunhead Cemetery in London. And secondly they find out about the increasingly popular 'Death Cafés where people meet for tea, cake and a jolly discussion about mortality, all run by Jon Underwood who feels we don't talk about death half enough. Then they meet child genius Jacob Barnett and his Mum Kristine. Jacob has an IQ higher than Einstein and has been confounding academics and scientists with his knowledge of astrophysics since he was 3. Now, at 14, he's working on extending the theory of relativity. In our 'sound sculpture', we hear the doleful sounds of the harmonium- loved and restored by folk musician Pete Roe and we enjoy The Inheritance Tracks of American legend Don McLean. Finally, Sian and Aasmah travel in the footsteps of Bonnie Prince Charlie with Gregor Ewing and his border collie Meg- who carries her own rucksack. Good dog.Producer: Chris Wilson.
