Navigating death and dying can be a challenging for all involved. The way you interact with the person who is dying is very important; as the last thing they need is to manage your feelings! In a continuation on our grief episode (episode 30); this episode features a candid and enlightening conversation with our guest, Linda Campbell, an experienced hypnotherapist and end of life doula, who helps us explore this often-taboo topic.
First off, we tackle the discomfort that our society often feels around death, and how this shapes our interactions with those facing their own mortality. Following this, we delve into the delicate dynamics of communication with someone who is terminally ill and the need to focus on the present, respect their decisions about care and treatment, and provide them with an opportunity to express their feelings.
We also discuss ways to support friends dealing with terminal illnesses. It's also important to remember to include them and treat them like they're still here; because they are! This episode is a reminder that death is a part of life; let’s embrace, and learn how to have these important conversations.
