July 10, 2020. The Corona Pandemic has shaken up the lives of many of us. At our 8th and final Compass Salon, we’ll rather fittingly be touching on the topic of letting go. In this online session we’ll be addressing the big taboo of death, to consider what can be learned by contemplating our mortality. On a philosophical level, the claim is that contemplation of death brings us squarely up against the existential bedrock of our lives and helps us to face our natural limits. This includes the many deaths that we can suffer daily, especially at times of life transition, involving our ability to negotiate not only promising beginnings but also endings.
How do we deal with saying goodbye to an old sense of identity? How do we grieve the end of an intimate relationship or a once beloved job? We have invited Cori Moore to share with us her experience & learnings from the re.designing death movement, and lead us through an interactive session in which we’ll reflect and share together in breakouts.
Event time: Aug 5, 2020, 5.00-6.30 pm CET.
RSVP if you would like to join. We will share the link to our online meeting close to the date.
CORI MOORE
As an innovation consultant and facilitator, Cori helps leaders and their teams to navigate change and drive innovation. Her professional tool-belt makes use of her background in Psychology and Theatre; she designs immersive (off- & online) formats, where teams can generate ideas together, co-create and learn from one-another. As one of the founding members of the re.designing death movement, she has spent the last few years running workshops and interviewing people about their experiences and attitudes towards death & dying, something she says has been an extremely uplifting exercise. She also leads the course “Dealing with Death” at The School of Life in Berlin. We may live in a death denying culture, but Cori can attest that people are often more than willing to talk about death, they just need the right environment in which to do so.
