Wat je zal leren
ā€˜It Is Only When We Face Death That We Become Most Fully Alive’ A deep journey designed to help you turn towards death and become more fully alive, so that every cell of your heart, your mind, and your body tingles with vitality. The course contains 6 beautifully crafted lessons, each filled with heart-warming wisdom, and transformative meditations on life, death, grief. With a balance of personal storytelling, engaging meditations, journal exercises, and transformative wisdom shared from various life and death teachings from across the world, you’ll learn about Death as Life’s Greatest Teacher, How to Befriend the Fear of Death, how to overcome self-sabotage by using Sigmund Freud’s theory of the Life and Death instinct, and the Surprising Magical Power of Grief. By the end of this series, you will have gently and compassionately discovered your answer to perhaps the most important question of all, one from the Zen buddhist tradition: Since death is certain, and it’s timing uncertain, what is important now?

Self Sabotage And The Death Instinct - Why We Are Often Our Own Worst Enemy, And What To Do About It
In this session, you will learn about the ā€˜Death Instinct’, a force that we all have inside and that we can find a way to work skilfully with so that it fuels our creativity instead of our self-destruction. One of the most baffling things about human beings is that - despite our huge brains and self-acclaimed status as highly evolved apes - our very worst enemies are often ...ourselves. Why is this? Why do we self-sabotage - not only on an individual level, but equally - From through World Wars, and to genocide, from Nuclear Bombs, to the Climate Crisis - why do we self-destruct on a collective level?

Nurturing Your Life Force
In this session, you will learn how to work more skillfully with the polarity of the Death and Life Instincts that exists inside all beings.

By learning how to honouring your life force as the balancing force of our death instinct, you can really wake up, and find a deeper sense of pleasure in everyday life.
