Kathryn Mannix: Does a Good Death Make for a Good Life?
Description
Palliative care consultant Kathryn Mannix makes a compelling case for the therapeutic power of approaching death not with trepidation but with openness, clarity, and understanding, in her book, With the End in Mind.
In conversation with her editor, Arabella Pike, she explores how we die, how to promote a greater understanding of an ordinary death, and how that can enable us to live a better life.
"People who know that the end of their life is approaching spend far more time in this present moment than they do worrying about all of those other things; all of their possessions and legacy [...] people become very centered and focused on the now and the present moment can be a safe place of great comfort."
