Like many people trying to get over a paralyzing fear, journalist Judy Bachrach decided to face hers head-on. In her case, a fear of death led to volunteering in a hospice ~ which led, eventually, to research into near-death experiences (NDEs) and a book on the topic. Did it help? "After the first 20 or 30 interviews, I was still terrified of death," she says. "All
these people were telling me stuff that I never believed could happen.
But gradually I came to accept that what they said was true. So I'm a
little less terrified of death now" (Q&A):
