description: As much as we might try to resist endings happen in every momentthe end of a breath the end of a day the end of a relationship and ultimately the end of life. And accompanying each ending is a beginning though it may be unclear what the beginning holds. In How We Live Is How We Die Pema Chdrn shares her wisdom for working with this flow of lifelearning to live with ease joy and compassion through uncertainty embracing new beginnings and ultimately preparing for death with curiosity and openness rather than fear. Poignant for readers of all ages her teachings on the bardosa Tibetan term referring to a state of transition including what happens between this life and the nextreveal their power and relevance at each moment of our lives. She also offers practical methods for transforming lifes most challenging emotions about change and uncertainty into a path of awakening and love. As she teaches the more freedom we can find in our hearts and minds as we live this life the more fearlessly well be able to confront death and what lies beyond. In all Pema provides readers with a master course in living life fully and compassionately in the shadow of death and change.
