Life After Death? Animism's Surprising Take on the Afterlife

from The Séance · host Rev. Dr. Paul G. Meckes

What happens when we die? Is it the end, a transition, or something else entirely? In this episode, we explore death, the afterlife, and the unseen world through the lens of animism with Laura Giles, LCSW—trauma therapist, shadow work facilitator, and near-death experiencer. With over two decades of experience in holistic healing, Laura shares how ancestral wisdom, sacred travel, and community play a role in understanding both life and death. Join us as we discuss what animism teaches about the afterlife, how trauma and grief shape our perceptions of death, and ways to reconnect with the sacred cycles of existence.
