"Death is an unstoppable period mark to the sentence of every life. This inescapable constraint means that we can’t do everything. What we choose to do, then, matters greatly."

Life is long enough, and a sufficiently generous amount has been given to us for the highest achievements if it were all well invested,” Seneca writes. The problem is that time is often not well invested. Too many people come to grips with mortality only when death is bearing down on them. And at ...

"When I first met Christine Ruggiero, she was facilitating a gathering called a Death Cafe, at a hidden gem in Las Vegas– aptly named The Enchanted Forest. I was struck by her powerful, yet quiet radiance– the kind that feels ethereal and like a magnificent, deeply rooted tree at the same time. She exudes a warmth and kindness that immediately puts you at ease, and makes you feel seen, respected, and welcome. She’s exactly the kind of person I’d wish to be around me as I exit this body, as her calm presence would no doubt be deeply comforting for me and my loved ones."

"The doorway to death is the last great frontier in human life. Intellectually, we all know our lives will end, and yet - in the Western world at least - we act as if death is a mirage, disappearing the closer we move towards it. Two doctors in Australia are using psilocybin to help ease the anguish of their patients at the end of life, and the results they have seen are truly remarkable. But this visioning tool, like other plant medicines, is not new; it comes from ancient traditions. When the doctors journey to the Amazon to experience traditional medicines for themselves, they are confronted by realisations they have no explanation for. Is it possible the world's oldest cultures have something important to teach us, not just about traditional medicines, but about death itself?"

This astounding documentary traces the uses of psychedelics in palliative care, weaving together medical trials with ancient traditions

Focusing on what really matters for reducing your risk of death:

"Perhaps unsurprisingly, media coverage gravitated toward rare but emotionally charged causes of death—terrorism, homicide, and drug overdoses—while giving little space to the conditions that claim the most lives, like heart disease, cancer, metabolic diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. Heart disease and cancer alone accounted for 56% of deaths in the sample, yet together appeared in only about 7% of media stories on mortality."
