Near-death experiences (NDEs) are common, well-documented, and similar across cultures throughout the world. Current estimates are that between 4 and 15 percent of the worlds population have had an NDE. Some of the fascination with NDEs comes from the fact that they often result in great leaps in personal growth. These leaps are characterized by loss of the fear of death, healing of deep hurts, an increase in self-esteem and compassion for others, a sense of union with all things, and a clearer sense of how to fulfill ones purpose in life. This is a book that teaches readers how to reap the benefits of NDEs without having to experience the trauma of dying. In their many workshops around the world, the authors have discovered that when we immerse ourselves in the elements of NDEs, we can experience love, hope, healing, and a sense of purpose.
