    About this audiobook

    What constitutes dying well in a death-phobic culture? Stephen Jenkinson points out that life is a time-limited offer and our “obligation is to obey. Obey doesn’t mean submit; obey means attend to. What is this asking of me now?” There is much to ponder in this dialogue, whether or not you are actively dying.

      This is such a godsend! It confirms powerfully for me that I revisited literally just yesterday evening about death, “that I’m willing to face it even when it means embracing it’s taking my beloved away from me.” I can’t put it all in words but I’m so grateful to have listened to this podcast! Thank you for doing this talk on dying wisely with Stephen Jenkinson. I am broken open ?!
