One of the ancestral knowledge that we are recovering, for example, is the ritual of preparation and washing of the body after dying. From the time of the prehistoric caves of burial, until a few generations in the western world, this ritual used to be in charge of the wise woman of the people, or the neighborhood, which integrated the family of the dead person and did so in an intimate place.
It is a form, among many others, to accompany a person in their transformation at the end of life, and also helps its intimate circle very much to integrate their death and say goodbye to it.
It is hopeful to see that this way of honoring and hugging death is expanding again in every corner of the world.
