Near Death Experience, Podcasts
This week I am talking to Jacob Cooper about his NDE and his book 'Life After Breath: How a Brush with Fatality Gave Me a Glimpse of Immortality'. In Life After Breath, Jacob’s near-death experience as a child ripped an opening between him and the spirit world. He lived, but was forever changed. As he grew, darkness and light led him on a roller coaster ride of turmoil, loss, discovery, and renewal. He now shares this mystical journey with those brave enough to explore the “other side,” understand the beings there, and hear the wisdom gleaned. He faces the question of the hereafter, looks at life lessons, and examines what a connected awareness can mean to the human experience. BioJacob holds a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree and is…

This week I am talking to Dr Christopher Kerr about Death Bed Visions and his book 'Death is But a Dream: Hope and Meaning at Life's End'. Christopher Kerr is a hospice doctor. All of his patients die. Yet he has cared for thousands of patients who, in the face of death, speak of love and grace. Beyond the physical realities of dying are unseen processes that are remarkably life-affirming. These include dreams that are unlike any regular dream. Described as "more real than real," these end-of-life experiences resurrect past relationships, meaningful events and themes of love and forgiveness; they restore life's meaning and mark the transition from distress to comfort and acceptance. Drawing on interviews with over 1,400 patients and more than a decade of quantified data, Dr. Kerr…

This week I am talking to Dr Bruce Greyson about his book 'After: A Skeptical Scientist’s Journey to Understand Life, Death, and Beyond'. In After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal About Life and Beyond, one of the world’s leading experts on near-death experiences shares the lessons he has learned over nearly a half century of studying near-death experiences. Backed by decades of pioneering scientific research and captivating first-hand accounts, Dr. Greyson reveals the evidence that led him to rethink his understanding of the nature of life, death, and the continuity of consciousness. Although NDEs reveal a lot about dying and what might come after, they reveal as much about life and living, about the value of compassion and our interconnectedness with one another, and about what makes a…

This week I am talking to Michael Prescott about his book 'The Far Horizon: Perspectives on Life Beyond Death'. Over the past century and a half, a wealth of evidence has emerged that is consistent, at least, with the hypothesis of life after death. • Near-death experiences• Deathbed visions• Mediumship• Apparitions• Past-life memories, and memories of a between-lives state. Yet even those who are inclined to take this evidence seriously may struggle to make sense of it. How can the idea of an afterlife be integrated into our everyday experience? How can we connect the seemingly nebulous notion of postmortem survival with the hard, tangible reality of life on earth? Through metaphors, images, and analogies—illustrated with dozens of documented cases drawn from the literature of parapsychology—this book suggests ways of…
