One Year to Live Program

Begins Thursday, March 9, 2023

A year-long intensive program on getting acquainted with and prepared for death. In so doing, it will transform your life as you become deeper, more present, and more focused on what’s truly essential.

“The One Year To Live program allowed me to integrate the losses of loved ones I've recently experienced and it gave me an opportunity to explore my own inevitable demise.

There is so much to learn and appreciate about death, practical, emotional and spiritual. I am much more at peace now with this life.” 

Michelle Morris, attorney
