Thoughtful piece on
practicing mindfulness of death. I know with my "So You're Going to Die" comic, there are some people who are more comfortable with not thinking about the topic, but I do think keeping your eyes open and exploring the emotional space is a very useful thing. Like the Nikki Mirghafori says we are too often out of alignment with what we actually know our lives to be; something with a beginning, a middle, and an end. As Dr. Jenn Mann says "The unconscious mind doesn't know the difference between past, present, and future", so often the conscious awareness of the conclusion of things is jarring, but we can think and feel ourselves to a more honest and healthy and accepting place.
