Live fully through death awareness | Jennifer James | TEDxSnoIsleLibraries 

Bless you, but you need not be dying.

@@carlw what do you mean?

@@cyndimoring9389 Not to give up, know that you can turn the tables on the disease with nutrition and knowledge NOT only what the doctors tell you. They only understand a small portion but they're made to think they have the quorum on medical knowledge. Races before us knew much more than chemo and radiation. That's only to make the pharmaceutical industry rich. You'd think after all these years of money and funding being pumped into cancer research, we'd see the results and breakthroughs. Well? Where are they? There have been many people with the cute but they've been 'silenced'. For those current, their system cannot be used because "it doesn't meet the current standards of care". Who makes the standards? Who stands to lose? Getting the picture? This applies to many other facets of our societies. 100 years on gas and still 34mpg is deemed good? 100 years? A century and no breakthroughs? We have cell phones. Fact is, we haven't needed gas or roads for over 100years. Again, if were not slaves to oil and gas, who stands to lose? And on and on. As long as we pay our taxes, watch the news we're supposed to, eat our cheesies and watch the Kardashians or the bachelorette, then all will be ok.

@@carlw I'm sorry but I've already walked in your shoes and he died anyway. He spent the last 5 years changing his diet, converted me to a plant based, non dairy diet. I know all about society's failings and it still didn't help him. He was 70 years old, moving lava rock in his fruit garden when the hormone replacement therapy failed and it was in his bones. He studied Tony Seba, taught me about the disruption that's hopefully coming. When the pain took over he went for the chemo, the radiation and I nursed him into his skeletal, don't touch me phase. I watched him die of cancer in his bed in his home. It was the stress, the pollution and the years eating wrong that killed him. Doctors are just there to collect whatever $$ we can throw at them in desperation , but we still die of cancer just like my dad did 45 years ago. Oil is dead, but long live the oil. For what you're talking about, we'd have to do a complete reboot on all societies in the world. This will happen anyway, once our failed societies collapse and the next wave of humans (those who are left) must adapt to what's left. So don't tell people there's another way. Not in this lifetime.

@@cyndimoring9389 I'm so sorry to hear of your loss 😔 My sincerest condolences. Yes we're currently wayyyyyyyy off course although, unfortunately, a large number of people don't see it YET! There's really no reason for people to die of any of these ailments aside from old age and accidents or even meteors for that matter. Again, I'm sorry for your loss and wish you all prosperity and health!.

Love that

That is very profound and beautiful, almost Dr Seuss like. Just lovely

Dr. James used to have a radio talk show in the late 70s and early 80s. I absolutely adored her show, her knowledge and the wisdom she shared with us. Her voice was mesmerizing.

Hi bro

It takes courage to be an intellectually honest person and reject the crutch of faith.

watched this again and again, what a thorough and practical endeavour to explore death, we still have this immemse power of life, live it fully everyday 🙏🙏🙏

I agree. Mortal life on Earth is not easy.

Look I thought I saw his finger move!

this is very simmilar to Caitlyn doughty who is reaching the digital generation about the dead body..

@@annieinwonderland694 Ah yes, I have heard of Caitlyn's work. I haven't experienced it yet, thank you for reminding me. It's now on my list for future consumption.

@@Toekneebob i have panic attacks about death too. What can i do? Thanks

@@mitch5222 That's a very difficult thing to deal with. I'm not a professional or expert, so I would suggest first and foremost to consult your doctor and psychologist if you can. That said, I can tell you what I have done to help myself. So, if I am having a panic attack, in the moment I try to focus on my immediate surroundings. I start to state aloud what objects are around, what I can see and what I can hear. This helps ground me back to reality. Then, I drink a glass of water over a ten minute period to calm me down all the way. As for preventing them, that's a bit more work. I have reduced the frequency by facing the fears that cause them. I have spent a few years researching death, and how to cope with it. I find meditation a great effort, as well as exploring religions. I'm not saying become religious, but explore religious materials. They contain the ancient commutative knowledge of humanity of what it is, and how to find life despite it finite nature. Particularly, Hinduism and Buddhism were helpful. The most helpful texts for me personally were the Bible and the related manuscripts. When I analyzed the work as metaphoric, it opened my eyes to what I was afraid of, and understanding something makes it much less scary. Also, if you want to see something that can entertain you and open the doors to further exploration, I would give Midnight Gospel a gander. Great quotes, and the last episode even walks you through a great, simple meditation that works. Lastly, if you are looking for a medicine to help, I would try CBD. It can greatly reduce the anxiety level of our day to day. I hope this helps, and remember to seek professional help (as I did) if you can as I am no expert. If you want to chat, reach out to me and we can talk about our experiences. I'd love to know how this works out.

Read spiritual warfare by jed mckenna last 2 chapter memento mori no one explain to you better than jed

Isaac Gomez in ICU stuffed with tubes I suppose

Oh lord

Thats What i would do. Sitvstare and think and meditate and pray

yes!......likely a little of both, but i have sat and stared a good bit this past year....i find it pleasant, feel my breath, and it seems to slow down time.....

Memento mori.. remember you must die

I had the same fears. No one will remember me, care about the fact that I'm gone or even bother coming to my funeral. But then I realized this: when I'm gone, why will it even matter? 😌

Was praying she didn’t trip

Same😂

Maybe that’s what she meant by you’re never alone.

True, but we can develop it.
