74. DEATH - And why we should talk about it for our Mental Fitness...
Description
Death is inevitable. It’s one of life’s few certainties, and yet it is a topic that most of us shy away from discussing.
In this episode, Jimi and Libby talk about their own perspectives on death, their fears, their responses and how this has impacted their relationship together.
They discuss some of the unique practices that people around the world adopt to embrace the notion of death, including fake funerals, keeping skulls in your house and death meditations as well as psychological tools to help overcome death anxiety and cultivate death accpetance.
They also delve into how having a healthy attitude towards death - your own, or someone else’s - can boost enjoyment of other facets of your life and improve your overall mental fitness.
