Abstract
Several trends are inviting a truly integrative-holistic approach to palliative and end-of-life care. These include employing a Conscious Dying philosophy, the increased visibility of End-of-Life Doulas, and the use of entheogens for patients with advanced illness. These will be explored through the literature; implications for practice will be highlighted.
