The International Death Cafe movement, of which the Mindfulness Practice Group is an
authorized host, offers moderated conversation about death. Our spiritual practice in every Death Cafe is Deep Listening to what
each person brings, puzzlement, fear, anger, stuckness in rumination, longing, sorrow. We moderate so that everyone is heard. No
one may try to convert another to a particular religious or philosophical position. What is said in Death Cafe stays in Death
Cafe. In addition to these rules from International Death Cafe HQ in London, we "Speak [only] of death & eat cake."
