Step 1. Do not embalm the body. Step 2. Do not put it in a coffin. Step 3. Bury it.

Overcoming the marketing pressure of the morticians and funerals industry is the non-trivial part. It's like getting engaged without a diamond ring. All you have to do is not buy an expensive thing that nobody needs.
