Overview

Death is awkward, so let's talk about it with love, humor, and gratitude! What if you could learn how to live life intentionally, totally awake and aware - and die consciously, with a full heart, grace, dignity, connection, and feeling complete? Kathy Arnos, founder of Whole Planet Productions, has been a pioneer of sustainable living, holistic health, and lifecycle transitions since 1988. In her latest book, Walking A Friend Home: A Practical Guide to Consciously Living & Dying, she addresses a deficiency in our society of human connection to the intimacy of relationships and offers readers tools, guidance, and resources to help them navigate the complex phase of midlife and beyond. Walking A Friend Home takes us on an inner journey that invites us to move from the intellectual mind into the spirit of the heart and explore our human vulnerability to best prepare for death, one of life's most inevitable moments. In it, Arnos presents new concepts for reflection that stretch the imagination about where we come from, where we might go in the end, and how to be with your loved ones in a new way when they are physically gone. Walking A Friend Home is an empowering step-by-step guide that will inspire new awareness, important conversations, and deep connections by blending spiritual, holistic, and conventional methods to live a more fulfilling life and die with grace. The book provides tools, techniques, and resources to: Overcome your fears and foster honest communication Practice acts of self-care, service, and mindfulness Gently move through the ocean waves of grief Efficiently plan for all phases - emotionally, physically, logistically and spiritually Learn about and experience forgiveness, compassion, and unconditional love Plus, witness heartfelt stories of completion Death is an integral part of life - it's time to acknowledge it and learn how to best prepare and support your loved ones and yourself through this extraordinary rite of passage. Let's begin the conversation. Arnos states, ""I have learned much about the importance of living and dying well and how to prepare emotionally, physically, logistically, and spiritually for this rite of passage. I look forward to helping others do the same - like walking a friend home at the end of a long day - a day that will change your life forever."" ""What a breathtakingly beautiful book filled with spiritual, emotional, and actionable guidance to live life fully - in every moment. It gave me a new perspective on the human connection with resilience. Arnos has created a wonderful gift for us all."" Erin Gray Award-winning actor, speaker, author, and tai chi teacher ""Arnos' words, woven with elegance and warmth, have become a comforting companion, gently guiding me through the complexities of life while providing invaluable insights into understanding and embracing mortality.""
