Defeat Fear of Death
by Kerry Emrich
Fear of Death
Fear of death is the fear of dying or of dead things. The
medical or scientific name for this fear is Necrophobia.
This is an astonishingly common phobia with millions of
sufferers world wide. It is an impractical and unreasonable
fear, no one wants to die but we can not allow ourselves to
be overcome with this fear and not live our lives to the
fullest. There is nothing we can do about death, it is
inevitable, and as such the fear of death is of no value to
us.
There are many kinds of phobia, fears and anxieties, but
the fear of death is particularly troublesome so millions of
people world wide. Fear of death has been treated
successfully in the past and you will be able to overcome
your anxieties and fear of death.
The only realistic fear related to death would be to be
afraid of dying from things we can avoid, such as lions,
tigers, or war. We can prepare and make plans to avoid such
things, to increase the time we have left on this planet. We
must live out each day free from the fear of death but still
plan to avoid the factors that we can control.
This danger avoidance helps us to prepare and make plans
so that we are not currently in any danger. This can be
achieved by learning how to swim to help avoid drowning
(which of course is a cause of death) and to make to further
prepare to learn to avoid or minimize other dangers. Another
example of this would be to wear our seatbelt while driving
to reduce the risk of injury or death if we are involved in
an accident.
Death is a natural part of life, and we must remember
that all things will die one day. We can prepare ourselves
spiritually for death. This can be formal such as going to
church, or other religious temple, or as simple as
meditation or simply being a good person
It is also quite common to have regrets when we die. We
can do many things other than to simply have a fear of death
to prepare for it, and to reduce the pain of our friends and
family when that day comes. Paying our bills, making sure we
have insurance to cover our funeral, planning our funeral,
these are all things that will reduce the stress and anxiety
of others. Each day we can do good things to make our life
more meaningful and give us a sense of purpose.
Life is a journey, we are part of this world, but it is
not our home. We are like adventurers simply passing through
the world as part of our journey through eternity. Making
the most of each day is the best thing you can do to get the
most out of your life and to feel at peace with yourself.
Stop worrying and start living! Life is short, and
tomorrow is uncertain, so make the most of each day, take
time to smell the roses, and have no fear of death.
