Hippie Witch, Hippie Witch, a happy hippie place for getting rich.

Rich on Wisdom and love, books and fun, magic for a new age, season one.

Hi, thanks for joining me for episode 437 of Hi, Magic for a New Age.

And yes, we are taking the podcast seasonally.

This is season one.

After 437 episodes, this is season one.

My name is Joanna DeVoe, and I am the groovy creatrix behind kick-ass witch, putting the K in magic, and hippie witch, the show you are listening to right now.

I also have a free e-book by that name, Hippie Witch, Peace, Love, and all that good shit, and you can pick up a copy of that at

www.jana devo.com or back on the description page for this episode back on blog talk

radio, where you will also find a link to today's fascinating guest, Daniel Shaw, who is a death dula preparing to start incorporating

psychedelic mushrooms into his practice because that's not interesting at all.

And because the following interview is largely concerned with making peace with death,

you will also find in the show notes a link to a video that I watched the other day.

And fair warning, it had me in tears.

And it's very emotional, but they were happy tears.

They were reverent tears, is maybe a better word for it.

And the title alone will give you a sense of what it's all about, and maybe if you want to check it out, it's called Rituals of Honor in hospital hallways across the United States are holding honor walks

to show respect to patients at the end of life who are donating organs to others.

And honestly, just reading that now, having seen the video, I get a little choked up, just reading, just reading

the title of it.

It's so beautiful and so needed in this culture, in a culture that has made life's inevitable

conclusion into a taboo.
