Ep. 15 The Dance of Life and Death Part 2: Balance
This is part 2 of the series on the intertwining of life and death in a perfect dance that spirals throughout eternity. This episode covers:
- Why we cannot live fully (and in balance) if we ignore death.
- How the medical system perpetuates the separation of death from life.
- How being mindful of death helps us let go of attachments and live with equanimity.
- Practices for bringing death awareness into daily life:
Morning gratitude practice.
Mantra: This day is a gift.
Notice death around you – including tragedies in the world.
Observe the “little deaths” each day.
Practice getting back into balance.
- Discover joie de vivre (the joy of living) and practice love through your final breath.
