Publisher's Summary

Loss is difficult...and universal. What do we say? What do we do?

Part how-to guide, part hopeful manifesto, Cultivating the Doula Heart provides a clear framework for supporting those facing hardship, grief, and loss. Succinct and straightforward, this work of heart covers: Components of Doula Care, Aspects of Loss, Ways of Being/Ways of Doing, Grief Support, and Contemplative Exercises. Additionally, the audiobook version comes with over an hour of bonus content that expands on the main body of work, from navigating how to speak about loss with children to discovering death rituals as a doula.

Listeners will feel empowered to move from sympathy to empathy to compassion. The doula heart can be readily infused into all work and into any relationship.

This audiobook is beautifully narrated by fellow doula, Rina Ríos.

Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
