DEATH AWARENESS WORKSHOP TESTIMONIALS
“This workshop was incredible and powerful. It showed me that there are others out there in the world that want to reframe death as more of an ecstatic transition as opposed to something to be feared and made into a taboo subject. Korona’s explanation of her own exploration and experiences inspired me to continue my own work on this subject and she spoke authentically and from the heart. Hearing about the near death experiences that were shared during the workshop touched me deeply and encouraged me to continue my own journey on building a community of people who want to change the way death is dealt with and feared. The music journey at the end by Lester was the cherry on top and really solidified what was discussed in a relaxing and meditative way. All in all it was transformative and inspiring and I’m deeply grateful that I had the privilege to attend. ”
“I really enjoyed it! When you touched on the specifics of the stages of death, and the ancient wisdom about what exactly happens in that transformation — that was especially really powerful. Those kinds of questions are what compelled me to come to the event. You have so much valuable insight to share. I’m delighted I got to be part of this. ”
“This workshop was a profound and heart-centered experience that shifted the way I relate to both life and death. Korona, a death doula with deep experience in hospice and end-of-life care, created a space that felt incredibly safe and sacred. She spoke about death as a beautiful transition - something to prepare for consciously, not fearfully.
We explored universal elements of the dying process found across religions and near-death experiences, grounding into the knowing that love is everything. A moment that especially stayed with me was when the shamanic practitioner, Eric, opened our crown chakras to receive the teachings with our whole being, not just the mind. From the opening meditation to the closing ancestral sound journey, the experience was powerful and soul-stirring. The stories we all shared afterward affirmed just how deeply we were touched.
I left with the unshakable sense that my essence - the “I am” - will never die. I’m not afraid of death. I know that I am love, and that love is eternal.”
“Korona’s perspective and knowledge on death being a shift in an infinite field of existence is such an inspiration and has already helped me become more accepting to death.”
PLANT MEDICINE RETREAT TESTIMONIALS
“Thank you for providing us with such a gentle yet powerful and personalized care, it was very special with so much love. I can still feel your hand radiating with such a powerful energy and I have to also mention the overwhelming feeling of a very unique ancestral connection. You are such a special and beautiful person, my highest respect.”
“My experience with Cornelia was exceptional to say the least. I felt safe, loved and cared for. She was attentive every step of the way and prepared to attend to my needs as they arise. Cornelia was the very person I needed for this journey with her knowledge and capacity. She has an open heart and a loving desire to help me get through it. I felt totally safe and didn’t have any doubts that she was competent to address all of needs. I feel blessed to have had this experience with such loving and capable human being. I feel that because of her dedication to serve I am a better person. Thank you for big loving heart and making this experience worth it.”
“I spoke with 5 psilocybin guides before choosing Cornelia. She’s committed to her art, she’s knowledgeable on the subject, and most importantly, she provides a clear sense of comfort and safety. I was grateful to have her there beside me during every step of my journey. She was attentive throughout the process, providing reassurance and physical touch during the challenging moments, offering encouragement during times of potential discovery, and continually seeing to my physical comfort, be it temperature, hydration, or bathroom breaks. She’s more than a guide—she’s an empathetic psilocybin caregiver, and I highly recommend her.”
“Korona Cornelia is an exceptional guide. She’s extremely experienced and puts a huge emphasis on set and setting, making sure everything is just right for a safe and meaningful journey. She walks you through every step with clarity, setting the right expectations. Her preparation process is incredibly thorough, incorporating meditation, and intention setting, to help you get the most out of the experience. And the integration afterward is just as thoughtful, helping you process and journal everything in a way that sticks. Throughout the whole journey, I felt completely safe and supported.”
END-OF-LIFE DOULA TESTIMONIALS
“Watching Korona work with my dad was the first moment I saw my dad receive any peace during the last few months. He’s been scared and tired, and for a few moments he wasn’t either of those things. That work has been invaluable for him. Whatever plane Cornelia Korona brought him to has brought my dad the peace that there’s something beautiful for him after this harrowing experience. Knowing he’s felt that has been an immense relief for all of us. The calm he experienced during his reiki session has been the most important moment for any of us the last few months.”
“Working with Korona was the best I felt since I found out I had ALS. From the top of my head to the bottom of my feet I was tingling with joy. It’s amazing what that young lady does. I appreciate that she comes from far to make me feel so good… I treasure how she makes me feel.”
“Cornelia stepped in to our life during my husband’s final months on this earth. He was truly a fighter and I believe part of his fight was for us...
He always looked forward to Cornelia’s visits. She reached him on a different level than anyone else. She’s very good with her end of life compassionate care indeed! She reached him and he did comfortably state “I’m Ready”.
I highly recommend Cornelia, especially for those struggling with the decision to let go. Her kind, knowledgeable and compassionate manor eases the transition into that final peace.”
