Meeting Death Without Fear

Julia Chi Season 3 Episode 3

In this episode of The Practice of Being, I reflect on death, not as something to fear, but as one of life’s greatest teachers.

From early childhood moments to spiritual traditions, lived experience, and sitting with people at the end of their lives, this episode explores how learning to die allows us to live more fully, consciously, and lovingly.

We look at why the fear of death arises, how identification with the body and mind creates suffering, and how practices such as presence, meditation, and self-inquiry help us remember who we truly are.

When we begin to clear attachment to the created self - our stories, identities, and conditioning -  something profound is revealed: what we truly are was never born and can never die.

This is an invitation to meet death gently, to soften into life, and to live from a deeper knowing that there is no ending,  only a change of experience.
