Inhaltsangabe

We’re all going to die. But, in our death-phobic culture, we don’t learn how to die naturally or consciously the way our ancestors did. Instead, we fear death or overmedicalize it, becoming disempowered as a result. In these pages, those at end-of-life and their caregivers partner with the process of death and grief, improving outcomes by viewing dying as a natural passage. Within this context, death offers the dying and their loved ones opportunities for deeply meaningful maturation and transformation of their experiences. Melody LeBaron’s groundbreaking new book, Transforming Death, returns conscious dying to its rightful place within the sacred fullness of life.
“Transforming Death provides practical advice so you’ll be prepared for death with understanding, skill and compassion. I recommend this book to those caring for the terminally ill, as well as seekers who know that dying is a doorway to eternal life.”
