Lucinda Herring returns to the podcast to continue our conversation. Lucinda has studied with David Spangler since the 1990’s, received her Masters in Spiritual Direction from Lorian in 2009, and was ordained as a Lorian priest in 2011. She has an eclectic spiritual path – blending Anthroposophy, the Ceile De tradition, and thirty years as a Vajrayana Buddhist practitioner with her Incarnational Spirituality/Sidhe/Gaian focus and practices today.
Lucinda considers herself a Gatekeeper, helping others navigate life’s thresholds and passages in ways that build resiliency and co-creative connection with Gaia, nature and the subtle realms. She has focused on both ends of life, working with children and families as a festival maker, writer and storyteller, and also helping people reimagine what is possible at the threshold of death.
Lucinda has been at the cutting edge of the green funeral movement for over twenty years now, as a death doula, home funeral guide and licensed green funeral director in the state of Washington. In 2019, she wrote Reimagining Death: Stories and Practical Wisdom for Home Funerals and Green Burials, published by North Atlantic Books, with a Forward by David Spangler. The book won the Nautilus Gold Award for 2019, and is available wherever books are sold. Or you can support Lucinda directly by purchasing the book at her website: www.lucindaherring.com.
