Informed Dying is the Only Way to Live April 21, 2010

Your life is finite. Your Death is inevitable. So what really matters? Following six years of service as a hospice volunteer at San Francisco's Laguna Honda Hospital, Tim Tosta has witnessed the end of many lives and learned from those experiences that death is a great teacher. Tim will share some of these lessons and how they can enrich your life -- starting right now!

Don't miss this opportunity to reframe your perspective on death, bringing it "out of the closet" for your life's betterment. Yes, despite your first impression, this is an uplifting, life affirming, celebratory event.

You will learn that:

* Embracing death as a teacher gives depth and meaning to the life experience.
* Survival is not about living forever; it's about living consciously, meaningfully and lovingly.
* A life lived in spaciousness, awareness and curiosity will flourish.
* Transforming the energy of fear into discovery admits us to a boundless, lush and wondrous universe.
* Life acquires its meaning only in relationship with others. Relationships are founded on the rocks of empathy, compassion and generosity.

If you are interested in living life better, starting today, you'll want to pick up Tim's book and come to this event to hear him talk and get a copy of his book for free.
