Some people worry about where their bodies will be buried.
Making a decision about where you want to be buried can be influenced by superstition, convenience of loved ones, cost and environmental concerns. People who believe that some part of them remains in the body after death are concerned with having their bodies buried in places where they won't be disturbed.
Cemeteries
The most common choice for a burial site is within the boundaries of a recognized cemetery. Some people have their bodies buried in coffins in cemeteries, while others are cremated and have only their ashes interred. Many people choose a cemetery spot themselves long before they are facing imminent death, and take comfort in knowing where their bodies will be going.
Private Land
Regulations about burying a body on private land differ throughout states. If you are thinking of having your body buried on your own land, research the legalities of doing this in your area before you die. If you don't, you could leave your descendants with legal hassles regarding your burial site.
Energy Spots
Some people believe that certain locations have stronger energy than other locations and are more auspicious for burying a body. These ideas are related to traditions involving such things as ley lines, dowsing and feng shui. Sites can be analyzed by experts who are sensitive to these energies, and they can advise the person looking for a grave site on the suitability of different locations.
Wild Land
A minority of people don't want to be interred in a cemetery and either don't own land to be buried on or don't want to be buried on it. Some of these people choose to have their bodies buried in the wilderness, far from any human interference with their process of decomposition and return to the soil.
