Remember, you are going to die

Need daily reminders that this moment is all you have and tomorrow is not guaranteed? There is an app for that. In the course on impermanence with Pema Chödrön WeCroak was mentioned and I loved the idea so installed it right away. It is a bit dark and the random notifications jostle you out of whatever drama is unfolding at the time but that is precisely the idea. A great addition to both the course and the Year to Live experiment that I am doing.

The latest result inspired by the experiment – I booked a walking holiday 🙈 I’ve talked for ages about wanting to do it. But when the chance came, my brain gave me a million reasons why not to do it. A death reminder was timely and made me remember that illusion of time is just that – an illusion. And so I booked it. Yay!
