MyDeathRehearsal
MyDeathRehearsal
A guided year of exploring death, dying, and grief — mind, body, emotion, and spirit — so you can live more fully now. Created by Dr. Ryan Westrum, psychologist and death doula.
Join the Waitlist Learn About the Program
A year-long program for individuals and small groups, built around Dr. Westrum's Existential eXperience (EX) framework — a full-self approach to life and death that moves through mind, body, emotion, and spirit, not just the intellect.
MyDeathRehearsal is becoming an app — daily practice, guided journaling, and a living legacy space — so the work of the workshop doesn't stay behind in a single session. Phone-first, and just as simple on the web.
The same structure as the workshop, built for daily life.
A daily quote and a short guided practice to begin with.
Guided reflection prompts, written in your own words.
Teachings and perspectives on death and dying, drawn from many traditions.
Mind, body, emotion, spirit — the full-self work at the center of it all.
Wishes, directives, and a living time capsule for the people you love.
Groups, events, and connection with others doing this work.
Tools, readings, and support when you need them.
A companion volume to the workshop and the app — a structured, literary guide to rehearsing what none of us can practice in advance. Follow-up to The Psychedelics Integration Handbook.
