The Last Time

Instructions for the leader

Prepare a quiet, comfortable space where the group can sit or lie down. This is a guided meditation on mortality designed to foster appreciation for life. Have a pre-recorded meditation audio (5-10 minutes) ready, or prepare to guide it verbally. Instruct everyone to get comfortable, close their eyes, and follow the prompts, which might include imagining their last moments or what matters most in their lives. Play the recording or begin speaking, guiding participants through the reflection. After the meditation, gently bring the group back with deep breaths. End with an optional period for participants to share any insights they gained.
