An inspiring speaker and artist asked 20,000 people around the
world to share the regrets they wanted him to burn in a mock Viking
ship. This is the story of what he learned about letting go of the
pain of the past and embracing the future with hope. Turning 30,
artist and speaker Kyle Scheele wanted to do something unusual to
mark this milestone. Instead of a birthday bash, he decided to hold
a funeral to memorialize the decade of his life that was ending.
Building a 16-foot Viking ship out of cardboard, he invited friends
to help him set it on fire-a symbolic farewell to his 20s and all
the grief, regret, and mistakes that accompanied those years. When
video of his Viking funeral went viral, it encouraged many others
to let go of past hurts as well. Moved by the response he received,
Kyle planned a second funeral (this time with a 30-foot cardboard
Viking ship) and asked people to share the things they carried-the
bad choices, disappointments, heartaches, and negative thinking
that they wanted to lay to rest. He received more than 20,000
responses from around the world-stories both heartbreaking and
hilarious, painful and inspiring. In this entertaining and wise
book, Kyle reflects on what he discovered about freeing ourselves
from the pain of the past, interweaving anecdotes from those who
participated with the story of his own journey of renewal. "This
story involves multiple Viking funerals, thousands of square feet
of cardboard, and enough hot glue to supply your mother-in-law's
craft night for the rest of time," he writes. "But it also involves
regret, self-doubt, insecurity, and ultimately, redemption. So
buckle up. It's about to get bumpy." How to Host a Viking Funeral
is the story of letting go of the people we used to be, but no
longer want to be. It's about renewal; where there was once regret
there is now blank space-an opportunity for a fresh start.
