Being With Dying

As a pioneer in the care of the dying, Joan Halifax founded the Project on Being with Dying, which helps dying people to face death with courage and trains professional and family caregivers in compassionate and ethical end-of-life care. In this long-awaited book of inspiring and practical teachings, she offers lessons from dying people and caregivers as well as guided meditations to help readers contemplate death without fear, develop a commitment to helping others, and transform suffering and resistance into courage.
