Peacing Out

No frills, just compassionate, feminist care on death, dying, grief and life cycles. Empowering you to make decisions for life and end of life.

Come remember what you love about life.

Room by room, block by block, relationships and interactions, body and self, environment and atmosphere - what do you love about life?

Take a break from consuming information outside, and feel in - what is LOVE highlighting for you?

At a time of so much suffering on our planet, what would it feel like to come back to what you love? Not in a way that bypasses the realities, but in a way that guides us to uncover what we cherish, what we want to hold, to advocate for, to activate, to nurture.

❤️ When working with people at the end of life, it always comes back to what is loved.
❤️ When hosting death cafes to talk about our mortality, it always comes back to love.
❤️ When we do end-of-life planning, it always boils down to a conversion on what people love.

Proof of aliveness! Thanks to my almost-four year old for getting me out early and into the sun this morning.

I talk about life a lot but can sometimes forget my own living. Thank you Metta, for putting my face in the sun this morning! ❤️

So moved by every piece in Geographies of Distance: Remembering Home.

Remembering Home! 💔 I can feel the weight of every single one, capturing time and distance in such a visceral way. So grateful for artists! Handles at the bottom.

Geographies of Distance: Remembering Home is curated by Dr. Amin Jaffer and bringing together the works of Alwar Balasubramaniam, Asim Waqif, Ranjani Shettar, Skarma Sonam Tashi, and Sumakshi Singh for the India Pavilion in Venice.

REPOST• For those whose lives are shaped by distance, home becomes less a fixed place than a portable condition: part memory, part material, part ritual, and part personal mythology. Through soil, thread, bamboo, papier-mâché, suspended forms and acts of remembering, these five artists reflect on migration, ecology, architecture, belonging, and the emotional landscapes we continue to carry across time and distance.

Curated by Dr. Amin Jaffer, Geographies of Distance: Remembering Home brings together the works of Alwar Balasubramaniam, Asim Waqif, Ranjani Shettar, Skarma Sonam Tashi, and Sumakshi Singh.

Commissioned by the Ministry of Culture, Government of India, in partnership with the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre and the Serendipity Arts Foundation, the National Pavilion of India is now open at the Arsenale di Venezia for the 61st International Art Exhibition — La Biennale di Venezia.

Grief in Public Day, 2026 ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

This felt SO good to do. So many people came through and shared their grief - with rocks, with me, with each other. It was so beautiful, and it was so powerful. To see and be seen in these times. Together, we built a ring of love, creating a public memorial - thank you for coming!

WE NEED THIS! So many people were so grateful for the opportunity to share. We need opportunities to grieve together.

Thank you for the park for holding it all! Will not wait a whole year to do this again!

Shoutout to for the beautiful sign!

I’m SULA, not Zula, and I don’t talk like this or sound like this, but in my attempt to say a lot in a way that this platform will allow, here is a reel about CARE. On this National Doula Awareness Day, this is what I have to offer. Sharing it would support me! Thank you!

While the process of accessing Medical Aid in Dying (MAID) may be clinical, the journey to receive support and care should never be.

The path to making this choice is not always easy, and it deserves compassion, dignity, and wholehearted support every step of the way.

On February 6, 2026, Governor Kathy Hochul signed the Medical Aid in Dying Act into law, making New York the 14th U.S. jurisdiction to legalize Death with Dignity. The law will take effect on August 5, 2026.

This milestone comes after more than a decade of tireless advocacy by New Yorkers living with terminal illnesses, grieving families, clinicians, and supporters across the state. Twenty-nine advocates died while waiting for MAID to become legal and accessible. We are deeply grateful for the energy, courage, and unwavering belief they brought to this movement for choice, dignity, and compassionate care. Thank you for your advocacy.

This legislation marks a significant step forward in protecting freedom of choice in end-of-life care. At the same time, the finalized 2026 New York law remains highly restrictive compared to some international models (see slide outlining New York State “guardrails” for details). Continued advocacy will be essential to ensure access for those living with prolonged, debilitating illness, as the six-month prognosis requirement and self-administration provision may limit eligibility. The choice to avoid a prolonged and unwanted dying process should belong to the individual.

Whether you are considering MAID or navigating a terminal diagnosis, you deserve comprehensive, compassionate care at life’s most sacred threshold.

Tonight I’m lighting a candle for Alex Pretti, and all the soul’s transitioning so suddenly and violently after being murdered by ICE.

Tibetan Buddhists light a candle for 49 days after death, with the intention of guiding the spirit as they navigate stages of the bardos (stages of realms /afterlife) before rebirth. I believe this is especially important when death is sudden or violent.

Im lighting this candle in the hopes that this light supports their transition in whatever way possible. I pray they feel the love that they carried in their lives surrounding them as they travel. The gratitude that we are carrying amidst our broken hearts. I’m so sorry they never got to say goodbye or prepare for death. May their memory be a blessing. May their transition be as easeful as possible. May there be justice for his life, for all their lives.

We’re all death doulas now. Not just in community as we honor each other’s lives, but as a practice. Doulaing a transition of a culture, a conditioning, that has been guided by fear and othering, by power. Supporting/being steadfast with this transition through compassionate action and love. We have got to say goodbye to systems that have caused so much violence, so much harm and so much suffering.

Let their memories fuel us to have the courage to say goodbye to what is no longer serving this planet. Let their memories remind us that we can build and birth new ways of being.

Solidarity with Minneapolis. Stand strong. We are all so inspired by your loving action.

Leaning into the darkness, the deepening, the sleepiness of this cycle.

I always find this time asks me to reflect on my losses and ask myself what still needs a goodbye? What are you sitting with as the days darken? What still needs to be seen, held, or spoken to?

Light your candles, have your fires, feel the darkness and make it quiet. Say your goodbyes, speak them to the darkness. Wishing everyone a restful solstice. 🕯️

Grateful to the elders and wisdom keepers such as
for their insight on this time and our cycles.
