About this work

Description

"If you had only a year to live, what would you do differently? This question is at the heart of Stephen Levine's beautiful, transformative book. After working with terminally ill patients for twenty years, Levine was led to examine what it would mean to live a life without regrets. He embarked on a one-year experiment in conscious living, living each day as if it were his last. Drawing on his experience as well as on numerous interviews with the terminally ill, Levine has developed a programme to help readers learn to live life as never before. This book will be of interest to anyone who wishes to lead a more meaningful life. Levine, the author of Who Dies? teaches how to deal with unfinished business, re-examine priorities and enter into a vibrant new relationship with life through a year-long programme of strategies and guided meditations. He writes: 'Why wait for a terminal diagnosis before opening to the potential grace and wonder of this living moment. None of us can afford to put this work off any longer because almost no one knows the day on which the last year begins." -- Provided by publsiher.
