from The Mindful Journey

In this deeply moving episode, Dr. Gregg Korbon, physician, veteran, educator, and author of Beyond Reason: Lessons from the Loss of a Gifted Child, shares the profound journey that began with the sudden death of his 9-year-old son, Brian. What started as a parent’s search for understanding transformed into a spiritual awakening, challenging Gregg’s beliefs around life, death, and consciousness. From paranormal signs to insights gathered from mystical teachers and martial arts discipline, Gregg opens a window into a world where grief becomes a portal to truth. About the Guest: Dr. Gregg Korbon is a retired physician, Vietnam-era veteran, and author. His journey through the unimaginable loss of his son Brian led him to write Beyond Reason, a book that explores the mystery and meaning behind life's deepest sorrows. With a background in medicine, martial arts, and mindfulness, Gregg now shares his lived experiences to help others process loss, discover purpose, and embrace a wider view of reality. Key Takeaways: Grief can act as a spiritual awakening and a gateway to deeper understanding. Children often have intuitive or psychic awareness we may not fully comprehend. Shared stories of loss can unite people beyond belief systems. Physical disciplines like martial arts can help build emotional and spiritual resilience. The illusion of separation dissolves in the face of authentic connection and presence.
