Sense of Smell\ Possessiveness\ Fear

The feelings, perceptions, and bodily mechanisms associated with survival become particularly pronounced when we experience the death of a loved one. This can manifest as a deep, instinctual fear that challenges our ability to continue living in the absence of the deceased. This fear can trigger what is often referred to as a “survival mode” reaction, characterized by physiological changes such as an increased heart rate.


In this state of heightened alertness and anxiety, individuals may find themselves clinging to life, yet paradoxically fearing the natural processes of death. This fear can be so profound that it creates a desire to join the deceased, reflecting an intense longing to maintain the continuity of the bond that death has seemingly severed.


These intense emotional responses can lead to imbalances in the root chakra, which is the energy center associated with our most basic survival instincts. Grievers may experience difficulties in performing usual tasks, a common symptom of the disruption that grief can cause in our daily lives. Fatigue is another common experience during grief, reflecting the immense emotional and physical toll that the grieving process can take.


Possessiveness is another manifestation of grief that can be particularly pronounced. This can manifest as a strong desire to hold onto the deceased person’s earthly possessions, as these objects serve as tangible reminders of the person who has passed away and can provide a sense of comfort and connection.


The root chakra is also associated with the sense of smell, which can play a significant role in the grieving process. Smells that are associated with the deceased can trigger powerful memories, serving as poignant reminders of the person who is no longer physically present. This can be both a source of comfort and a trigger for intense feelings of loss and longing.


In summary, the experience of grief involves a complex interplay of emotional, physical, and spiritual responses, all of which are deeply interconnected. Understanding these responses and the role of the chakras can provide valuable insights into the grieving process and offer pathways toward healing and recovery.
