How should we support the dying, and how should we approach death itself? What is conscious dying? What does Carl Jung's work say about facing death?In this episode we have the complex topic of how to face Death, through the lens of psycho analyst Carl Jung. I'm sure that some of you will have found this episode because you're facing death during this time, either your own or of a loved one; and to those of you I offer my condolences and healing prayers, and hope dearly that what we discuss today will offer some perspective and assistance, and my apologies in advance if any of our ideas cause you pain: death and mourning are extremely personal topics. But I also hope that many others of you are here simply to try and form a healthier relationship with death.The inspiration for this episode came not only from my own experience facing my own parent's mortality, but also from my intuition that our modern, consumeristic, aestheic and individualistic society has made us more afraid of death than ever; perhaps because of our modern societies focus on material well-being, and the power of technology to guarantee it. My gut feeling is that we need to become aware of this unconscious taboo, as it seems to be hindering a deeper and perhaps more wholesome acceptance of mortality in general. And that's why I wanted to speak to a specialist like my guest psychoanalyst Monika Wikman. Monika received her PhD in clinical psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology and then qualified as a Jungian psychoanalyst at the Jung-Von Franz Center for Depth psychology in Zurich. She is an expert on topics including archetypal phenomena surrounding death, dreams, active imagination and alchemy. Her work with the dying culminated in a research project called ‘Dreams of the Dying' at UC San Diego Medical Center. She is also the author of the book, “Pregnant Darknesss: Alchemy and the rebirth of consciousness”. What we discuss:00:00 Intro.04:30 How to support the dying.07:05 Death informs us.09:00 Facing our own mortality - the history of Conscious dying.13:18 The Osiris Myth. Dismemberment and rememberment.16:45 Death is the ultimate goal, an achievement, according to Jung.19:15 Death duellers.21:45 The last step of individuation.24:45 Symbolic death, according to Jung.30:00 ‘The wound is where the light enters you'.

Hugo Toovey is a bloke who’s been through more than most of us could ever imagine and somehow still keeps moving forward. An army man, two-time cancer survivor, and the founder of 25StayAlive (a movement urging young people to get checked before it’s too late), Hugo opens up about what life really looks like behind the scenes. We get a glimpse into his world as a dad to 16-month-old Teddy while juggling surgeries, hospital visits, and all the quiet battles most people never see. Hugo talks about what it’s like trying to start a family when nothing goes to plan, why early detection matters, and how fatherhood has shifted his perspective on, well… everything. https://www.25stayalive.com/ BUY OUR SMELLY T SHIRTS HERE https://www.twodotingdads.com/category/all-products Buy our book, which is now available in-store! https://www.penguin.com.au/books/two-doting-dads-9781761346552 If you need a shoulder to cry on: Two Doting Dads Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/639833491568735/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheTwoDotingDads Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twodotingdads/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@twodotingdads See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this captivating episode of Soul Elevation, I was eager to sit down with Kristina Amelong, author of 'What My Brother Knew.'  I found Kristina's memoir profound, detailing her brother's uncanny psychic prediction of his own death, her personal journey through grief and trauma, and cultural attitudes towards death.  Our conversation also explores Kristina's expertise in holistic health, including the benefits of colonics and enemas, which were pivotal in her recovery from chronic illness.  Kristina's story of overcoming a traumatic childhood, addiction, and health challenges to find spiritual and physical healing is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. Additionally, we explore the powerful synchronicities that have guided her professional path, leading to the founding of the Optimal Health Network where she helps others heal through natural protocols. Kristina and I both felt the spirit of her brother, Jay, before we recorded, and we sensed he orchestrated the synchronicities which brought us together. May you be inspired and propelled on your spiritual journey through their shared story.
