Description

Zenith Virago is founder of the Natural Death Care Centre, where she guides folks through the process of dying, death and bereavement. 

As Waterpeople, most of us dance the line with risk regularly, and we know how alive we feel in spaces that we can’t control – like the ocean. Choosing to be a part of a wild space can offer us a healthy respect for death – and an active appreciation for life. 

As a deathwalker, Zen challenges us all to consider death as an inherent part of the process of living well. Her work raises important questions about the social and environmental impacts of our approaches to death and dying.

In these uncertain times, more than ever, Zenith empowers us all to consider what it means to die well.
