Kispum and Continuing Bonds

Kispum is a ritual for maintaining connection with those who have passed on.

I provide support for those entering end-of-life in the form of palliative, hospice, or other modalities. For friends and loved ones in the current or future relationship with a loved one or friend who has passed on.

For nearly 5,000 years beginning In Mesopotamian society, kispum has been a sacred ritual centered around ancestor veneration that transcended the confines of time and space. It is a practice that continues today across many cultures.

The Continuing Bonds Theory is modern grief practice  that links with lost loved ones are not severed by death but continue to evolve and play an ongoing role in grief.
Unlike distress theories, such as Freud's Detachment Theory, there is no forced 'letting go' or 'moving on.' Instead, the focus is on transforming the relationship with the deceased, allowing for continued interaction encompassing various emotional, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions.
