Synopsis

A yoga teacher, punk rock bassist, and Buddhist teaches from experience on how approaching death and grief with a little more compassion and a little less fear will make for a better life—and a better death, too. DEATH. Even the word itself probably makes you a little uncomfortable. Just look at it, sitting there, demanding to be acknowledged. It might even make you a lot uncomfortable. We spend so much time trying to deny death, going on about our lives as if we and our loved ones are immune to it. Then, one day, its truth becomes undeniable. The Death of You doesn’t flinch in looking into this vital, urgent matter. Join Miguel for a wild ride where we get real about death—and even have a few laughs at its expense. If you might someday die—or if you know someone who will—this book is for you. If you’re afraid of dying, this book is for you. If you’re excited about the Great Unknown, this book is for you. In plainspoken, kind, and encouraging language, Miguel will show you how to transform your relationship with death—and in doing so, you'll get to know your life in a whole new way. Today is the perfect day to start. Don’t wait—you’re not gonna live forever.

I liked the book once I was able to get into it. I found the beginning to be quite repetitive. I appreciated the meditation practices inserted here and there. This book introduced me to the death meditation, which I haven't done yet because I want to read through it again to make sure I'm doing it r......more

A wonderful follow up book from his first. A very quick read which also incorporates writing and meditation lessons. In fact, the writing ones have helped me start writing again. Although not much, but it's a start. You can see from this title that it deals with death, however it's not a morbid book......more

Goodreads review by Emma on April 10, 2024

Not a bad book to read right after Many Lives Many Masters. Strong overall message of becoming just as comfortable with death as you are with life, because the two are inseparable. Just can’t give it the full five because after each of the meditation practice chapters the author would say share your......more
