How to talk about death and dying

Death can be an uncomfortable and scary topic. But J.S. Park, a hospital chaplain and author of As Long as You Need: Permission to Grieve, says talking about it can help us prepare for and process death — our own and those we love. On this episode of Life Kit, Park shares how to support someone who’s dying, what death can look like, and how to consider death without obsession or fear.Follow us on Instagram: @nprlifekitSign up for our newsletter here.Have an episode idea or feedback you want to share?
