Hollywood movie icon and political activistJane Fonda has picked her specific burial plans and location as she maps out out her final days. Mother of three Fonda admitted that she has taken time to considerhow she wants to end her days with a desire to be "at peace" with her family. Fonda has turned to therapy, aged 87, to help work through how to be in a great place with her kids.
Fonda has decided to be wrapped in a sheet and buried in a field area in a cemetery alongside her second husband, author and activist Tom Hayden, in Santa Monica, California. The environmentalist will not be cremated over the smoke damage.
Hayden, whom she married in 1973, was officially laid to rest at Woodlawn Cemetery in 2016. The Barbarella star wants to take her final breath surrounded by her closest friends and family.

Fonda confirmed: "I know where I'm going to be buried. I've worked it all out. Cremation is bad because it puts chemicals into the atmosphere. The idea of being buried in a wooden box is anathema to me. I'm going to be wrapped in a sheet and put in a hole next to my second husband, who is buried in Santa Monica in a place which is like a native field with native grasses and no headstones, and it's drought-resistant.
"And I don't want the kids to have to go to different places to commune with us. And I believe we can commune with the dead.' Fondareflected on how death is a topic on her mind. "I think about my death a lot, and I think that that's very healthy. That thinking about death gives meaning to life, you know? At 60, I thought a lot about 'okay this is my last act. This is it.' First 30 years, second 30 years, my last 30 years."
"What do I want to get out of it? I want to end it with no regrets, or at least as few regrets as possible. Okay, that means, because if you visualise your death, None of us know how we're going to die, but it's good to have an idea."
"I want to be in my bed in my home surrounded by people who love me. That means I'm going to have to be sure that people love me. I have to earn some love between now and then during my third act. And my dad never spoke when he was dying. I want to be able to talk and give, you know, impart some thoughts and wisdom. I've thought about all that."
"And so it guides how I live in these last years. I'm almost 88. How I live so that I will get to the point that I want to get to when I die." She spoke to XMNPR.
Fonda admitted her finale is centred on working on relationships with her kids. Fonda's oldest child Vanessa Vadim, who was born in 1968, is her only child with her first husband, the late French filmmaker Roger Vadim. Hayden and Fonda welcomed a second child Troy in 1973 and adopted Mary Williams in the 1980s.
The Oscar winner Fonda is fighting to be in harmony with the three: "I'm going to have to pass away before my kids make peace with me because I certainly have not been a perfect parent. But I've done my best.
"I've gone back into therapy now at 87 because I want to figure out why I'm not a better person and why I wasn't a better parent. And I'm figuring it out. When I said I didn't want to have regrets."
"I don't want to have regrets. And so I've gone into therapy. So I won't have any regrets, and I'll understand what's - what it was all about."
