Description
Description:
The terror of death plays a larger role in our inner life and our psychological problems than is generally thought. Too often psychotherapists avoid inquiry into death anxiety; either because they do not know what they can offer patients or because they have not confronted their own anxiety about death. If we come to terms with mortality in our own personal therapy and familiarize ourselves with the topic, we can offer a great deal to patients terrorized by death. Individuals with much terror about death can be helped, not only to enjoy relief from fear, but also may find that an encounter with death will enhance their life. As wise men have pointed out through the millennia, death confrontation can awaken us to a fuller life.Awakening experiences, if we learn to recognize them, are amply available in everyday therapy. One important method of coping is to avoid large reservoirs of un-lived life. The Zorba of Kazanzakis had it right when he urged us to “leave life nothing but a burned out castle.” Dr. Yalom will describe this idea and focus also on other effective arguments available to clinicians (including the arguments of Epicurus) that will help us to overcome death terror.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe one method to come to terms with mortality.
- To describe how coming to terms with death can allow us to enhance our lives.
