Approaching Death : A Companion's Guide to the End of Life, Paperback / softback Book

Approaching Death : A Companion's Guide to the End of Life Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Just as no person is the same as another, each death is individual.

This special book does not promote methodologies or theories, but rather offers insights, information and contemplations on the end of life.

It supports the companions of those on their dying journey, whether volunteers, medical professionals, pastors or loved ones. Renee Zeylmans taught courses on accompanying dying and bereavement for many years.

She described the journey towards death as a reciprocal process, asking not only how do we travel with those who are dying and what can we give them, but what do they give us?

This book is the fruit of a lifetime's work, and her intention was for it to enrich the reader, throw a new light on difficult situations, evoke recognition, console and offer choices. As well as host of practical information about dying and death -- including questions around the physiology of death, fear, fasting, funerals, music, language, and human senses -- the book contains contemplations and meditations from different world views and cultures.
