The goal of Death Café is to provide a safe, comfortable space for people to talk about death and preparing for their demise. The Death Café model was started by Jon Underwood in the United Kingdom in 2011, with the help of his mother Sue Barsky Reid, a psychotherapist. “It just becomes a normal topic of conversation with my friends and family now.”And while death is inherently a grim subject for most, the key of the Death Café is the concept of death positivity. Some questions you might hear at a Death Café are: What is a good death? One topic of discussion at a recent Death Café meetup was around evidence showing that people are more likely to die during the holidays.
