How to Live So You Can Die Without Fear (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781955831086)

From a pioneer in the conscious dying movement and founder of the Living/Dying Project comes an inclusive, nonsectarian spiritual perspective on living and dying, written for caregivers, the aging, the bereaved, and anyone yearning to live more fully.

Caretakers for the sick and dying, people facing a terminal diagnosis, and all those seeking higher truths will discover in this powerful book a gateway to not just conscious dying but to living so fully that they can, when the moment arrives, die without fear. In this clear-eyed and revelatory guide, Dale Borglum, a decades-long meditation teacher and pioneer in conscious dying, teaches us to compassionately work with our fears and our old wounds, tend to the darkness within, and recognize the wholeness of who we are so we can begin to heal.

With an eclectic background including a doctorate in mathematical statistics and a lifetime of cross-traditional spiritual study, Borglum presents a unique healing path that integrates Western psychology, 12-step programs, energy and somatic healing, devotional practices, the chakra system, ego dissolution, meditation, and more. Through a threefold process of embodied mindfulness, compassion, and transmutation, he teaches us to experience suffering and wholeness simultaneously, treat grief as an invitation to deeper love, and use simple yet profound tools to meet life's most challenging moments with grace.

With this wise guidance, we can see how caretaking of ourselves and others is, in itself, a spiritual practice. Borglum invites us to tend to acute and chronic grief by cultivating forgiveness and self-love, conveying what he has learned through his years of study: "Grief dares us to love again."
