Confronting Mortality: Steps to Embrace Death

Confronting Mortality: Steps to Embrace Death
You can overcome fear of death by meditating on your own death and practicing death dharma. Accepting death, especially accepting death of a loved one is important for dying peacefully. We talk about how to overcome grief, how to heal from grief after death and the importance of embracing your mortality and accepting your mortality. We also offer advice on how to cope with terminal illness, ways to support someone with terminal illness and what to do when someone receives a terminal diagnosis
We also touch on what happens after death, because the Buddhists recognise that there is a continuous cycle of life, death and rebirth. This cycle is known as samsara. The ultimate aim of Buddhist practice is to become free from samsara.
Thanatophobia is an intense fear of death or the dying process. While it's natural to feel anxious about death from time to time, thanatophobia is an anxiety disorder that can disrupt every aspect of your life.
