Welcome

Our presence in this world matters and every life has meaning.

Perhaps you’re reading this because you’re contemplating end-of-life matters and want support in getting your preferences in order. Maybe you’re approaching the end of life, and have unfinished business. Or it might be that you, or someone you love, has been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness and are overwhelmed with finding your way forward.

Thank you for finding the strength and courage to seek support.

With help, all of us can find the inner resources we need to cope with life’s challenges and sudden changes.  

I’m Mayumi, founder of One Thousand Cranes: End-of-Life Planning and Consulting in Sandringham, Melbourne. I provide professional counselling and support services that promote effective coping, enhance life-meaning, and facilitate a sense of peace.

“When you start using death as a means for focusing on life, then everything becomes just as it is, just this moment, an extra ordinary opportunity to be really alive.”
