Welcome to our continuing Healing Through Consciousness podcast series. Just when you thought it was over. Fitting we’ll be addressing death today in Episode 13. I’m Richard Lloyd Jones.

Death. Such a downer, isn’t it? The final curtain. The choir invisible. Kicking the bucket. 

Except it’s much more complex than that, don’t you think? My sister tells a story of going into the mountains for a solo picnic shortly after our dear mother died, and a huge crow stole her bag lunch, flew off a few meters, and then landed and turned to stare at her. She was convinced it was mom sending her a signal.

A student of mine tells of being followed for blocks walking down the street by a beautiful butterfly the day after his beloved grandfather died.

These are mysteries of cold coincidence for materialistic scientists, but resonate at another level for the rest of us. 

But for many, death is an unapproachable subject. As inevitable as it is, it still freaks us out. Is there anything to say about death that can be healing and comforting?

I think, “Yes!” Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco and I received an email from a listener some years ago broaching the shock, sadness and disbelief she was experiencing with the impending death of her dear – and still young – sister. What could be said to help her? For that, we turn to Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco.
