I was freed of my fear of death after being at the bedside of 3 beloved family members. All 3 having gone through different types of cancer. I took care of my Mother and my husband at home until their deaths in my arms. There was nothing scary about it. Total peace and even smiles upon there faces as they passed. No more pain and suffering. It was so amazingly quiet and peaceful as they left this world. I no longer fear my death. In fact I want to give my time to Hospice care to sit with families and their dying loved ones.

I have provided death care for many working in hospital. But there’s something so much more special about being out of hospital and sage and a peaceful passing without machines and all that! This would be my career passion if I could find it locally! Love and sunshine to all ❤️☀️

My aunt (my mum’s cousin) was in hospital and she was laying on her bed when we noticed her sheets were wet. We asked her if she wet herself, and she said no and looked slightly confused. At that moment we knew her body was shutting down (she had been battling cancer for a while), so the nurse came in and changed her and she peacefully passed away that same evening. But before she passed away, there was a brief moment where she told us her dad was there (her father died many years ago). I remember her mum telling her to tell her dad to go away, but she passed away not long after that. So her dad came to pick her up one last time.

It's rather strange that this should pop up as I have been anxiously thinking recently about my own death (for no apparent reason). My wife died some years ago from cancer and although her death was peaceful in the end mainly thanks to her nurses and medical staff, it was none the less slow, painful and emotionally traumatic for her. I guess that is my fear not the actual dying part but how lead up to death will play out. I know I should try and forget about it and deal with it when it happens, if only my mind would let me.

“Being dead in my bed... the thought of a dead body in my house even if it was just me is just icky to me.” That made me laugh. It’s comforting to know that there are people out there who share the same thoughts about death as you do. I’m absolutely terrified of dying, and I also think about it multiple times a day. I’ll be doing my dishes and my mind will wonder off to that “place.” I don’t want to live forever; I just want to be able to say to myself that I’m going to die one day and that’s okay.

Having seen both my mum and sister die in front of me, I can tell that there is something afterwards. If you stop still in that room, you can feel it. The visions of relatives before death have further gave me evidence to that. Another perspective is... most of us eat death every day. Don't we ever stop to think of the dead animal we consume? Are we afraid of that? Once you are gone, your body is a shell. It might twitch a bit but you aren't there anymore

What struck me is how the younger man had approached death several times on his "conveyor belt", and that in each case his fear became greater upon returning. I am wondering about how to mitigate the fear response of the amygdala so that experiencing the approach of death is not terrifying. I suppose that imagining that and reinforcing the fear response is part of what makes this worse, and that perhaps something such as mindfulness meditation could be of assistance. There is also the work that has been done in recent years with classic hallucinogens in a controlled environment which seems to have been valuable for many. One of the great pities is that this form of treatment is only legal in a few places in the world, (e.g. The Netherlands), as a treatment that helps people approach trauma - death, PTSD, et cetera - from a better frame is something almost all of us could benefit from.

i think maybe, as you are close to dying, you see and hear and experience things, that might be peaceful or scary, BUT, if they HAD died, i truly think, that's it, there is no more thinking, feeling, anything else. So what you feel in the last few seconds is almost irrelevant, if after that, you will never remember or think of it ever again, for eternity. In other words, whatever your last moments are like, its not like you will be stuck in that feeling forever - i think that's the fear people have.

With what you're doing you've made me feel not alone with this fear. Thank you for your work and your bravery to face all these situations.

There is a quiet, calm nothing that you never wake up from. Our time on earth is to live; our time after life is to not. That is why we should appreciate every day we have.

I wouldn't say that "we are all busy with living", we are just busy with plans and existing. If we were more conscious about the "expiration date" instead of running from it, we would live with more intensity, you know, less of "we have to meet one day" and more of "can I step by later today?" thingy. We'd be more careful when we say goodbye, when we argue, when we love. Maybe.

My family surrounds me and sits with me listening to the Pastoral, punctuated only by distant thunder, birdsong, and words of love and comfort, holding my hands and touching my chest and face as I slip away. Can't go out any more pleasantly than that!

I felt bad for the guy who talked about coming near death and how it was traumatic. I've heard of similar NDE's where people describe their bodies being separated from their souls and they fall into a dark void but they describe it as extreme peacefulness and freedom. I guess it depends on a person's perspective whether they interpret it as a positive feeling or a traumatic one. Needing to hold on to control would probably make it miserable but surrendering and accepting it would probably make it less scary.

We need a Dying with Dignity plan normalized everywhere in the world so people with terminal illness can plan how they want to die and have that control, and of course, most importantly. not suffer. What I wanted for my dad at 59 from cancer was this option. He died in a hospice and it was a nice hospice, but he didn't have the chance to decide what he wanted before his faculties failed him. I watched him waste away into nothing and by the end, he didn't know who I was or who he was, couldn't speak, he was a skeleton... no one should go through that. Sorry, this is just very personal to me.

I could help many pass over with no fear. With my last child birth, I had placenta previa attached anterior. I started hemorrhaging at 28 weeks pregnant. I left roughly 10 minutes into my ambulance ride. I was gone for 15 minutes! Everything that I was sure previously was true. The golden room, and the feeling of pure love. I wanted to continue and go further. I was reminded by an unknown figure that I had a baby that needed me "I am a mother of 6 children under 12yo". I came back.

I realize this is an older video. One thing that I decided years ago is that when I am ready, I will say goodbye to people I love and go to sleep and quietly pass. Native Americans recognized that we have the right to decide when we are done with this life, and sing our "Death Song". I will pass on my terms, when I am ready, and in my own home. It won't be a surprise to my family or a burden. If we talked about death as a natural part of life, I think it would help people. We have a choice if we are willing to decide we do. Blessings.

Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present. Our life has no end in just the way in which our visual field has no limits. Wittgenstein had it right, no need to think about our own death, it's not something we go through Leah.

I plan on cremation. The cemetery s are filling up to fast. Besides where I reside is not my home. My father was military so we moved around alot. If I had to say what place I lived would claim as home it would be Germany. Bettigen.the village we lived in twice. I want my friends to have a bbq and just celebrate my life.

Wow my severe anxiety has a name. Death anxiety. I think about dying all the time I'm talking many times an hour. It's very crippling. I'm so glad to know that this has a name and that other people suffer from Death anxiety I had no idea. Thank you so much for making these videos I am the kind of person that feels death should be out in the open. there should be loved ones around us when we die I am for physician-assisted dying. And I think having a death doula is an amazing gift to give oneself. Again thank you for making this video it really was incredibly meaningful for me

Hi Kavita, I am so sorry you're going through this. I had a very tough time with death anxiety a couple of years ago. I read studies that said older people are actually less afraid of death, and that reassured me - perhaps once we've lived a LOT, we're not so scared of letting go. And hopefully once we are in our fading years, we will be given the option to have assisted dying, which is a very peaceful process.

I personally don't want to die in a hospital. It seems so cold and clinical to me. I'd rather die at home with loved ones around me. Seems more peaceful that way but i know everyone has their own ideas about death and dying. No judgement!

At 10:25 Geoff says something important, that he's probably going to make sure he's got a little stash of pills on hand, mainly just so he knows he's got some control over dying. I'm no better informed on what it's going to be like when the time comes but my plan is to accept that I have no control, to surrender all control to the loving power that for the last 17 years I've believed is taking care of me. At least that's how I feel now. But there's a diversity of views on this and I'm not wanting to preach my beliefs to anyone with opposite ones. Respect!

I personally donot think we will care what happens after we pass with our bodies. This is basically something we do for the sake of our loved ones to ease the pressure of funeral preparations. I personally hope to get the chance to make my arrangements before I go. That way it will ease the pressure of my loved ones so they can celebrate how funny I was. ❤️ 😁

Help me understand why the diagnosis of a terminal illness should make such an impact when you have been dying since the moment you were conceived. When every step you make takes you one step closer to the inevitable. Why does a terminal diagnosis somehow seem to be extra confirmation of the inevitability of something you already know is going to happen?

Hi.... Don't be afraid at all.... You will cross over into spirit and you will see the family members that you incarnated with.... You will have the opportunity to review your life, and evaluate it..... It is a time of rest, of recuperation.... It is simply another phase of our existence.... Enjoy the journey.

I don't think that I would like the idea of an American style funeral they seem way to formal.I prefer something more of a celebration like an Irish Catholic pub wake or Buddhist street parade or even the dramatics of Asian funerals where loved ones are screaming and tearing out their hair..It's an emotional time afterall
