Felicity Warner, Author and Founder of Soul Midwives Part 1

July 07, 2021 • Holly Lyon-Hawk

In this first part of a two part podcast, Holly Lyon-Hawk speaks with Felicity Warner.

Felicity Warner created the idea of Soul Midwifery for the dying after sitting with many hundreds of people at the end of life.

Her pioneering work over the last twenty-five years has brought a new dimension to holistic and spiritual palliative care, both in the UK and abroad (there are now Soul Midwives working in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Europe). She is a respected lecturer, teacher and author of four acclaimed books – ‘Gentle Dying’, ‘A Safe Journey Home’, ‘The Soul Midwives’ Handbook’ and ‘Sacred Oils’.

Holly Lyon-Hawk is a multi-award winning Holistic Funeral Director and End of Life Doula for both people and for pets, bringing love, connection, time, choice and space back to the sacredness that is life and death.

More about Felicity:

‘The Soul Midwives’ Handbook’ is a text book used by both complementary therapists and in medical and nursing schools.

After winning two major national awards for her services to the dying, she says:

“To have the validation and support of the UK’s top clinicians and policy makers is a major step forward for Soul Midwives and the work we do. I am absolutely delighted to have won these prestigious awards, but I’m sharing the honour with all the wonderful Soul Midwives I have trained, who are taking the work out into their communities and helping the dying in many places.”

Felicity was also named End of Life Doula of the Year by The Good Funeral Awards in 2017 in recognition of her services to the bereaved. She holds an honorary Knowledge Exchange Fellowship with the University of Winchester and she lectures both internationally and across the UK.

In 2010 Felicity was nominated for the prestigious Woman of the Year award for her campaigning and work in palliative care and was named one of the most Inspirational Women of the Year by the ‘Daily Mail’ in 2017.

Her passion is for doing ordinary work with “extra” ordinary love, supporting the dying and their families, promoting end of life education, and collaborating with important community projects.

Her teachings also focus on understanding the mysteries of death and dying and the less obvious aspects of the journey and how to embrace them.
