WHY SO MANY DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS OF THE AFTERLIFE? Because each of us create our own unique serene environment within the Afterlife or Heaven, if you will, depending on which of the 7 levels of the Afterlife you move into during your transition back home to the Light.

Also this depends on how much work you do, and the quality of your reflection on the situations you were experiencing and the lessons that you learned from the Afterlife. During our discussions, we will bring scientific findings, other people’s stories of near death experiences, and discussions as well.

Upon sharing this with my hair stylist, she asked if I could just do a book of “just” the stories…she doesn’t like to read, and the book is already 500 pages.

Thanes told her through me, to just skip pages, or skip around—since she also likes to go to the end of the book to see how it comes out….Whatever way one tackles a long read, whatever is most comfortable to you is okay. The important thing is to find a way to frame the Afterlife in your mind, so your comfort level stabilizes.

This is one of about 100 cases histories of NDE or OBE, both short like this one, and sometimes a bit longer. Each present the stories and sometimes background in which they occurred.

In Bill and Judy Guggenheim's 1997 book, "Hello From Heaven!," they present the case of a verified OBE after-death communications (ADCs) by Daniel, a social worker in Minnesota. Daniel had a series of ADC visions on four consecutive nights following the death of his 28-year-old wife, Kathy, from cancer. The night after Kathy's funeral, as Daniel laid down to sleep, a vision of Kathy appeared surrounded by light. Somehow, Daniel became out-of-body and entered into the vision with Kathy. Daniel states, "It was as though she was in the light, she was the light, and there were no bounds to that light. The light radiated from her to me, and the experience of that light would never leave because now it is a part of me. There was no sense of loss when the visions stopped. These experiences were so vivid and real and reassuring that I had no doubts or questions about them.

They seemed complete and whole in and of themselves.'They are in our book, Bridges to the Afterlife: A World Within Our Reach, coming out in 2025. Written by my guide Thanes, through Dr. Shirley Ryan

Coming by the end of 2023 The great divide between the material world, and the metaphysical worldview has increased over the past 20 years as metaphysics spawns’ new recruits from the world of traditional hard science. The realm of medicine, biology and the other sciences offer just a few disciplines that operate within the material or physical domain and what is considered serious research. The duality of scientific thought between the dogma of materialism and the otherworldliness of metaphysics, it's no wonder that disputes abound dramatically within the scientific community. Political divisions co-exist between the left and right, traditional and nontraditional world views, each arena hanging tenaciously to strong views, one pushing against change, and each hanging on to the truth that they know. The controversy at the crux of debates is whether legitimate science could also birth meaningful connections into metaphysical and spiritual arenas. These arenas lay somewhere between philosophical and scientific inquiry, offering a secular world teeming with spiritual and metaphysical landscapes.

The Afterlife: A World Within Our Reach When I wrote this dissertation for my Ph.D., I wanted to create something that explained that there are open and active doorways or portals or bridges that move us into the dimension of the Afterlife. I gave examples of reincarnation, near death experiences (NDE), shared death experiences (SDE), After death communication (ADC), and other experiences that offer evidence to support this plane of existence. The book is coming by the end of the year, until then, feel free to read my Dissertation on the Afterlife
