Synopsis
After seeing many people on their deathbeds, healer Stephen Levine noted a common regret for time wasted, unrealized dreams, and disputes between family members never resolved. Levine decided to address these issues in his own life before it was too late, to live for a year as if it were his last. The results of this experiment are recorded in this wondrous book, designed to help readers see the light long before it's time to go. The reader is urged to find a spot in his or her home where they might want to die, a comfortable place from which to perform an array of meditations that change over the course of the year. "We imagine we own this body, but it is ours only on consignment," he writes, and now is the time to ready ourselves for the expiration of that consignment period. Chapters cover topics such as "Life Review," "Gratitude," and "Fear of Fear." Different meditations are suggested to help embrace each of the concepts, originating from many different cultures, including Buddhist and Native American. Appendices address group practice of the techniques, some great personal and mythological stories, and further reading recommendations.

Publisher's Note
In his new book, Stephen Levine, author of the perennial best-seller Who Dies?, teaches us how to live each moment, each hour, each day mindfully--as if it were all that was left. On his deathbed, Socrates exhorted his followers to practice dying as the highest form of wisdom. Levine decided to live this way himself for a whole year, and now he shares with us how such immediacy radically changes our view of the world and forces us to examine our priorities. Most of us go to extraordinary lengths to ignore, laugh off, or deny the fact that we are going to die, but preparing for death is one of the most rational and rewarding acts of a lifetime. It is an exercise that gives us the opportunity to deal with unfinished business and enter into a new and vibrant relationship with life. Levine provides us with a year-long program of intensely practical strategies and powerful guided meditations to help with this work, so that whenever the ultimate moment does arrive for each of us, we will not feel that it has come too soon. This book provides a year-long program of practical strategies and guided meditations to help with the work of entering into a new relationship with both life and death.
Industry reviews
"I can think of no one better qualified to help us enrich our lives through embracing the mystery of death." other - Ram Dass "This remarkable book steers us toward an earthiness and humility necessary for a full life." other - Thomas Moore
