A Year to LiveA YEAR TO LIVE
How to Live this Year as if it were Your Last

by Stephen Levine


    

Socrates believed that we should "always be occupied in the practice of dying" in order to appreciate our living. So imagine that you only have one year left to live. What would you do differently? For one year Stephen Levine consciously chose activities, relationships, and spiritual practices that reflected life's urgency rather than life's complacency. From his experience comes this year-long program of strategies and guided meditations to help us feel satiated when our numbers come up. Lessons include "Gratitude," "Disposing of the Corpse," "Finding the Lotus Before Winter," and "Beyond the House of Death."

VISITOR COMMENTS:

This book has changed my whole outlook on the world. Because of S. Levine & his insightful thinking, I went out on my birthday and wrote down my goals for the year based on what his book discussed. I am truly thankful for reading this book as it helped me to realized that NOW is the time to make changes if you are not happy with anything in your life. Don't wait for someday. I want to thank Stephen for this beautiful book and hope that it is as special and life-changing for others as it was for me. --Jim Kimkoz
