/ABOUT

Honouring the great work of our dear Jon Underwood, Jamyang is proud to present another session of the most wonderful Death Cafe. Death is one of the most important transitions we make, but often the one we think least about until it is upon us and we are least able to think things through. The overall objective of Death Cafe is to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives.

Not talking about dying can also impact on the way we live in terms of our mental health, perspective on our life and the choices we make. Certainly, not everyone wants to talk about death. However, we have found that a large number of people, on some occasion do want to talk about death. What is more, we have found that talking about dying can even be enjoyable as well as useful and illuminating. Join us for this difficult but much-appreciated conversation.
