Synopsis

Death is inevitable. What will your final days look like?

For some of us, death will be quick and unexpected. But most of us will have time to think about and plan a peaceful goodbye—if we choose to. Taking the opportunity to prepare for your own death well in advance is an act of service to those you love, as well as to yourself. This book shows you how to do just that.

In Peaceful Exit, podcast host, instructor, and author Sarah Cavanaugh draws from years of research on death and dying to help you reimagine and plan for your own death. Along with her expertise, she shares stories and advice from dozens of experts, colleagues, and friends to help you envision your ideal choices. This guide teaches you:

  • How to make peace with your relationships, your possessions, and your body while you’re living—instead of scrambling for resolution in your final hours
  • How to start considering what you want your final days to look like and how you would like your body to be treated after you die
  • How to communicate your plans and wishes to your loved ones to make sure they are carried out

Many people avoid thinking about death, but eventually, we’ll all have to. This book invites you to open yourself up to all the possible ways you can transition, celebrate your life, and choose what happens to you. Dying well is an art form. Peaceful Exit gives you the tools to learn that art and create a masterpiece for your final days.
