Today on Your Bounce Back Life we’re talking about how to bounce back, recover, and reset yourself from the certainty of death. Whoa! A heavy topic I know but we also discuss how being aware of death’s certainty can help us understand ourselves better, focus on the present, and live a deliberate life with intention.
In this episode you’ll learn the 11 big things I learned about accepting death to help me—and YOU—live a more impactful and joyous life. These include:
· To grasp some big emotional concepts of death around those we love—and ourselves.
· To live in the moment more and act truly present focused in your life.
· How to embrace the “Can’t Take It With You Attitude” of your material things.
· The importance of evaluating your life, creating a positive legacy, and crafting how you spend your time to fill it with what matters.
· The power of envisioning your own “good death” to alleviate uncertainty and fear.
· Understanding how accepting the certainty of death actually gives us permission to really live—and how to get started today.
