In this episode of What About Death!?, Tsultrim speaks with Roshi Joan Halifax, an internationally recognised Zen Buddhist teacher and founder of the Upaya Zen Center in New Mexico. Joan shares about her decades of experience working with the dying, and how these years have shaped her own life. She also talks about the importance of compassion, and how she is helping to educate clinicians and others in the community to better support people affected by terminal illness, grief, and loss.
