Psychology of Dying: A Continuation, Not a Conclusion

In this profound and thought-provoking episode of The Psychology of Us, Professor RJ Starr explores one of life’s greatest mysteries: the act of dying. Is death truly the end, or is it part of a greater continuum that we don’t yet fully understand?
Blending psychological theories, personal reflections, and compelling stories, this episode delves into the perspectives of both the living and the dying. From near-death experiences to Carl Jung’s ideas of integration and the emerging science of quantum consciousness, discover how death might not be an erasure, but a transition.
You’ll also learn how embracing mortality can inspire authenticity, gratitude, and freedom in life, and how grief can foster resilience and growth. Thoughtful, reflective, and deeply human, this episode invites you to rethink everything you thought you knew about life’s final chapter.
Join the conversation as we journey into the unknown—and uncover what it means for how we live today.
