Best Life Best Death

Perhaps you’ve heard about Near Death Experiences and are curious to know more. Marieta Pehlivanova, trained in cognitive neuroscience, statistics and psychiatry, is one of the people who has helped bring more quantitative methods to this subject. While the general public and parapsychology often view NDEs through narratives and testimony, researchers like Marieta, Bruce Greyson, and others at the University of Virginia in the Division of Perceptual Studies take a scientific approach. How? Why? What have they learned?

What happens to our family dynamics when death enters the room? Hospital Chaplain and author J.S. Park has spent more than a decade at the bedside, witnessing the ways complicated relationships, love, grief, and long-held family stories often rise to the surface in a crisis. In this conversation, we talk about the complexity of forgiveness, what it means to “grieve the good,” how we are shaped by the people who came before us, and his new book We Are Made of Us. And we wander to the edge of mystery: after thousands of encounters with death, what has Joon seen that he can explain — and what remains beyond explanation?For more information on Best Life Best Death please visit our website at ⁠⁠www.bestlifebestdeath.com⁠⁠Follow us on our social channels to receive pertinent and helpful resources on death, grieving, and more at:Facebook: ⁠⁠www.facebook.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠www.instagram.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠

I’ve always wanted to explore questions with an intuitive medium, and Susan Grau is all that and more. From her early childhood near-death experience and her explanation of the “clairs,” to her insights about consciousness, connection, and what may exist beyond what we can see — Susan is an articulate communicator and dedicated teacher. She knows things at the edge of mystery that defy conventional thinking and offer a peek into other dimensions. My curiosity is piqued — I hope yours will be too.For more information on Best Life Best Death please visit our website at ⁠⁠www.bestlifebestdeath.com⁠⁠Follow us on our social channels to receive pertinent and helpful resources on death, grieving, and more at:Facebook: ⁠⁠www.facebook.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠www.instagram.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠

One of my favorite people to explore topics like “the edge of mystery” with is Sarah Kerr. I hope that this conversation puts a small crack in your certainty of what’s “real,” and shifting that — even just a little — might change your thinking in interesting and unexpected ways. In this episode, we ask: “If we acknowledge the mysterious things that can occur around death, how does that impact our experience of death, dying, grief, and loss?” As Sarah says, “It’s a mystery, but it’s not a complete mystery.” This conversation will set you up for all that’s to come in Season 6 of BLBD.For more information on Best Life Best Death please visit our website at ⁠⁠www.bestlifebestdeath.com⁠⁠Follow us on our social channels to receive pertinent and helpful resources on death, grieving, and more at:Facebook: ⁠⁠www.facebook.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠www.instagram.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠

I chose this episode to share again, because I think it is so personal. It could be easy to forget that BK is “merely human,” and think that the most educated among us does everything perfectly. Hearing Barbara describe her experience in the year after her dear husband died, gave me so much food for thought. Thank you, for the personal heart and professional information you share so freely, in this episode and in all of your work.For more information on Best Life Best Death please visit our website at ⁠⁠www.bestlifebestdeath.com⁠⁠Follow us on our social channels to receive pertinent and helpful resources on death, grieving, and more at:Facebook: ⁠⁠www.facebook.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠www.instagram.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠
