@travelsecretsthepodcast: The most beautiful way to honour grief. Some travel experiences touch us in ways we never, ever expected. In this clip, Anna Chancellor so generously shares her deeply personal memories of bringing her daughter Poppy's ashes to Mexico's Day of the Dead celebrations in Oaxaca. Anna describes how Mexicans channel grief into a colourful celebration of life, with families tending to graves while drinking beer, smoking and laughing together. Such a beautiful perspective. Her story reminds us how travel opens our hearts to different ways of understanding life's most difficult moments. Tune in to the full episode to hear more of Anna's brilliant travel stories, available now on all podcast platforms and YouTube. 📍 Recorded at the beautiful @ThePeninsulaLondonHotel. #TravelSecrets #TravelPodcast #AnnaChancellor #Grief #Mexico #Dayofthedead #Oaxaca

In some parts of Mexico they actually get the bones of their family members out in order to clean them.

Mexico's vision of the cosmos STILL ENDURES. WE BELIEVE IN DUALISM, WE BELIEVE IN THE OTHER REALMS OF EXISTENCE WE HONOR BOTH LIFE AND DEATH NOT AS AN END BUT AS ANOTHER FORM OF EXISTENCE A TRANSITION INTO ANOTHER REALM BEYOND THE DENSITY OF THIS REALM.
