You get ready to die the way you get ready for a trip. Start by realizing you don't know the way. Listen to a few travel guides. Study the language, look at maps, gather equipment. Let yourself imagine what it will be like. Pack your bags. This book is one of those travel guides - a guide to preparing for your own death and the deaths of people close to you.

The fact of death is hard to believe. Sallie Tisdale explores our fears and all the ways death and talking about death make us uncomfortable - but she also explores its intimacies and joys. Tisdale looks at grief, what the last days and hours of life are like, and what happens to dead bodies. Advice for Future Corpses includes exercises designed to make you think differently about the inevitable. She includes practical advice, personal experience, a little Buddhist philosophy, and stories.

But this isn't a book of inspiration or spiritual advice - Advice for Future Corpses is about how you can get ready. Start by admitting that we are all future corpses.

Featured Article: A Future Corpse's Guide to Death Acceptance


Confronting death does not necessitate a spiral into despondency. Instead we may come a realization that, in acknowledging and accepting this fate, we paradoxically lead fuller and more emotionally present lives. In this list, scholars, physicians, journalists, philosophers, and death professionals share their stories, perspectives, and advice, offering a glimpse into how we can prepare for the end with grace, heart, and humor.

Advice for Future Corpses is a really thoughtful and sweet book that meditatively dwells on the morbid for the purpose of dispelling stigma. Tisdale is an experienced nurse who brings lots of stories to bear on the subject. A bit uncomfortable, but it’s hard to imagine a more universally applicable read.

Thoughtful and sweet

This book took me on a journey I never knew I needed. As I helped prepare my sister to die I listened to this as an audio book. The advice given helped me mentally and emotionally to coup with what was transpiring. Sallie Tisdale weaves the journey with eloquence and awareness. It was read by Gabra Zackman, her canter and calmness is just right.

The books is something I will return to many times in my life.

Truth about death

It was an honest look at death. I am not Buddhist; but the spiritual parts of the book were surprisingly enlightening, in a pleasant way. The author seems to have a curiosity and desire to let us know what she has found out. The bad news she tells you everything. The good news is she delivers it with compassion.

Talking about death

Thorough Gentle Guidance

I know this book isn’t supposed to make people happy or anything but learning and remembering to act on this information is so important. Things you never think about but wouldn’t want to leave your loved ones with the responsibilities either. And also learning how to accept the death of a loved one or even yourself is not something we are all taught how to accept but it will happen one day and knowing what is involved will put you and others at ease.

Vitally important information

Beyond the considerable nuance of systemic detail which is explained in this book, the high level educational nature of the author’s insights, much of which I believe points out the sheer contradictory protocol which medical professionals must (or choose to) abide by, but which serve only to accomplish the opposite result of it’s implied intention, this Review is a tome of intellectual and emotional intelligence on a subject which is common to all, the likes of which I could not have imagined before hearing this recording. Brilliance! Thank you Sallie!

I liked the tone and the information. The pace was perfect for the subject matter.

The news that most funeral homes and cremation services are owned by a few corporations.

This book manages to be both gorgeous, and practical. In excellent read for anyone who is caring for someone who is dying. But, because the dying process will affect all of us, in a myriad of ways, it is a good read at any time.

Philosophical meditation enfolds really useful advice
