‘Look Death In the Eye’
A couple of times a year, I have a session with a healer in the States. What he does is to take me into a deep state of relaxation where he poses to my subconscious mind questions that bother me. He doesn’t provide me with any answers; rather his job is to relax my conscious mind so that I can hear my Highest Self speaking.
Long story short, I had a few questions bubbling up just before the New Year, so I booked a session with him.
It was really uncanny, but every question I asked had one answer: ‘Look death in the eye.’ ‘Look death in the eye.’
I must admit, I have had an uneasy relationship with death all my life. My mum attempted a suicide when I was 6, my grandmother nearly died several times when I was a child, my grandfather passed away in front of my eyes when I was 14…. It was all rather traumatic, so I kind of learnt to avoid death the best I could. I lived in some strange sense of denial about it all, and yet it ruled my life.
Do you know what’s the price of not looking death in the eye?
You live half a life.
Your heart is never open to the extent that it could be.
You don’t let yourself get attached to people you care about.
You act from fear and not from love.
It was time to face death head on, so I signed up to do a 4-day retreat ‘Facing Into Death’ on spring equinox.
Do you know what’s paradoxical? Facing into death opens you to life more than ever. You’re not in avoidance anymore, you’re here, rooted in reality.
