A 7-week Journey into Living Deeply and Preparing for Death
Seven letters about death, written for those who want to live.
To prepare for death is to awaken to life.
This intimate, self-guided journey offers letters, practices, reflections and rituals that invite you to live with greater clarity, courage and joy.
Why This Journey
We rarely talk about death, yet it is the one certainty we all share. By turning toward it with honesty and reverence, we begin to see our lives differently: what matters, what we are ready to release, what remains unsaid, and how we want to spend the time we have been given.
This is not really a journey about dying.
It is a journey about becoming more alive.
