Well-Dying

I just read about a most incredible ceremony!

In South Korea, a company called Korea Life Consulting will let you attend your own funeral!

That’s right – you read your last will and testament then climb into a casket. The good folks from Korea Life Consulting then nail the lid shut, sprinkle dirt on the lid and play funeral music! After 15 minutes, they pry open the lid and you emerge – reborn!

One of the participants had to say this:

“I felt really, really scared inside the coffin and also thought a lot about my mom,” said Lee Hye-jung, a 23-year-old woman studying engineering. “I’ll live differently from now on so as not to have any regrets about my life.”

POWERFUL STUFF!

So what do you think? Should I incorporate some caskets into my next workshop or weekend seminar?

Read the story for yourself.
