Conscious dying arrived on my doorstep in the mid- 1990s. During a past life regression session from around 2000 BC, a client reported having difficulty after she died. Her difficulty showed up as confusion, feeling lost, and being among other souls who had died and were suffering in some fashion. She reported that it was hard to find her way through the “murky place” but with effort, she joyfully found her way into the Light.

This was the beginning of my exploration into the concept of conscious dying.  As we are growing the field of consciousness, we are not surprised that conscious dying is intimately connected to conscious living. The more we understand ourselves, deepen compassion and chart a course of being alive and aware, the greater is our clarity through the dying process and the journey after leaving the physical Earth. We are better prepared as to what to do and where to go after we depart this life.

That “murky place” is alive and well in our time, filled with souls who have been overwhelmed with difficulties, trauma and addictions during life. They can still find themselves in the throes of those mindsets after death. Education is a key for us here. To that end I have continued to explore what happens after we die and the various teachings from spiritual traditions around the world, as well as the many reported near-death experiences.

Some teachers say that nine out of ten people who die have a good death. Those are pretty good odds but obviously there is a great need for improvement. Not only do we want good deaths, we want conscious deaths. We want to have higher and higher levels of consciousness so that we can move into higher frequencies of experience in the afterlife worlds. We have the option then of moving off the karma wheel entirely and being at choice as to whether or not we return to Earth.

To further my own education on conscious living and dying, and with the hope that it serve as assistance for others, I have been putting together this material in my upcoming book, Going Out In Style: A Guide to Planetary Departure.
