#012: What Does It Feel Like to Stop Existing?

Yo… I had an experience recently that I haven’t been able to shake.I was sitting in a bath, just trying to slow things down, and I went into a meditation that took a turn I didn’t expect.At one point, it felt like I stepped outside of myself... like I wasn’t the one experiencing the moment anymore, but rather, the one observing it. And then something even stranger happened…It felt like I disappeared.Not physically, but the sense of “me” started to dissolve. Like my identity, my awareness, everything that feels like you, began to break apart and expand outward into something much bigger.And weirdly… it didn’t feel scary.There was this mix of peace, curiosity, and a kind of quiet sadness... like letting go of something you’ve always known, without really knowing what comes next.It made me start thinking about something I don’t usually sit with directly:What does it actually feel like to stop existing?Not from a religious perspective. Not from a definitive answer. But from the lens of experience, curiosity, and the possibility that there are parts of existence we may never fully understand.I don’t have answers in this episode. Just an experience… and the questions it left me with.==========Keep exploring 🌍austenletourneau.com ==========
