About the event
Join us for a session focused on asserting personal autonomy and decision-making rights, especially in the context of medical assistance in dying (MAiD). Learn strategies to express and defend your choices with confidence while respecting differing perspectives.
Participants will engage in a nature reflection activity to connect with their thoughts and feelings about end-of-life care and decision-making. Here's how the activity will unfold:
- Close your eyes and imagine yourself in a peaceful natural setting, such as a forest, beach, or mountainside.
- Envision the sights, sounds, smells, and sensations of this virtual nature experience.
- Reflect on how this virtual nature experience makes you feel and what thoughts or emotions it evokes in relation to the topic of medical assistance in dying.
Activity Worksheet:
