THIS November, the peaceful village of Competa will host a unique retreat aimed at transforming how we view mortality. The Mystery School of Living and Dying, led by acclaimed American end-of-life doula Michelle Vesser and psychotherapist Casya Childers, promises a four-day journey into the heart of death and dying.

A Sanctuary in Competa: The Retreat Setting and Experience

Set in a pretty mountain villa surrounded by pine forests, the retreat offers a refreshing take on a topic often avoided in modern society. Participants will explore death not as a morbid subject, but as a profound element of life’s cycle. With a blend of philosophical, therapeutic, and practical sessions, the retreat will cover crucial aspects like advance directives, palliative care, and supporting the dying.

Casya Childers emphasises, ‘Death is the only certainty in life. Embracing this certainty can lead to personal empowerment, allowing us to live with greater purpose and joy.’
