Mindfulness at the End of Life

Pollack, Robert

In "Mindfulness at the End of Life," Robert Pollack reflects on the role of mindfulness and spirituality in end-of-life care. He discusses how human beings, despite their biological nature, have an inherent capacity for love, interdependence, and ethical behavior, which become particularly significant as they approach the end of life. Pollack emphasizes the importance of acknowledging the moral dimensions of end-of-life decisions, advocating for a compassionate and ethically grounded approach that respects the wishes and dignity of the dying. He highlights the value of incorporating religious and spiritual perspectives into the care of those at the end of life.
