We spend a lot of time on Death is Everything espousing a death-positive outlook, but the prospect of death can be a terrifying concept. While it is perfectly natural to worry about death, it becomes problematic when these cycles of thought overwhelm and have a negative impact on daily life. Thanatophobia is the fear of death, an anxious state of mind that affects the lives of many people. This week we interview Marlyn and get to the bottom of her thanatophobia, from its gestation in her childhood thoughts to how it shows up in her mind on a daily basis. She recounts the role of loss in her life and how it has shaped her perspective on living fully in the moment. Listen in and join us in witnessing Marlyn’s unique perspective on death, dying, and living a fulfilling life. Remember to seize the day, Land of the Living, because you’ve gotta make it count!
