This is an excerpt from the full interview that unfolded between Patti Lindgren, Co-founding community healing facilitator in CHI and Stephen Jenkinson on October 2, 2017.

In this excerpt we begin at the beginning of the full interview, opening up with the term 'death phobic culture'.

The Community Healing Initiative (CHI) is a grassroots effort by ordinary people to make a space for big change to happen.

We say that we are waking up to what is going on in our world and responding as if the fate of all beings and Creation itself is in the care of village, with a village heart approach, key.

Stephen Jenkinson is an author, teacher, social worker, farmer and spiritual activist from the Ottawa Valley in eastern Canada. He is the founder of Orphan Wisdom School, has a Masters in Theology from Harvard and a Masters in Social Work from the University of Toronto. His views on death and dying are based in real world experience in palliative care with dying people and their families.

He illuminates the unconscious parts of our modern society and us by extension and as instruments, around death and dying. He also plants potent seeds for the future. Stephen is a conversation changer with something to say about culture, village, wisdom, and where we might be headed.

Stephen Jenkinson comes to Saskatoon November 13, 2017 for a day long talk based in his work and around his most recently released book Die Wise, A Manifesto for Sanity & Soul.
