How to Survive Life (and Death): A Guide for Happiness in This World and Beyond (NDE, Near Death Experience, For Fans of Life After Life or On Life After Death)
Learn to Live Life Fully

When you nearly die three times, you learn a thing or two about how to live…

Three times to cheat death. Over the years, Emmy-nominated art director Robert Kopecky had not one, but three, near-death experiences. What he brought from the other side was a book not just about surviving life and death, but about learning how to live. A relaxing and illuminating read, in How to Survive Life (and Death) you'll discover the calm determination to live life accordingly and share Love.

Three things death teaches us about life. One of the most common fears in human beings is death. Whether an existential crisis or social anxiety, we get bogged down by our daily lives. In How to Survive Life (and Death), Kopecky shows us the other side of our fears about dying—and living. He urges us to take a chance, learn something new, and go about life with an open heart. Complimented by personal stories, he shares his three keys to life:

  • Radical Kindness
  • Radical Forgiveness
  • Radical Surrender

If you want to be the best version of yourself, and enjoyed books like Dying To Be Me, What If This Is Heaven?, or Knowing, then you’ll think How to Survive Life (and Death) is quite heavenly.

Read an Excerpt

"When you travel simply and lightly, with humility and curiosity and open-heartedness, you're bound to discover the most beautiful things—about yourself, everyone else, and Life. You learn the rewards of simply showing up and being the best person you know how to be—without expecting anything in return, except maybe the chance to learn something new, and to share Love. Why not make your 'travel' plans through Life like that?" —from the book
