Erica's Near-Death Experience

Erica Tate goes on a solo hike at Peanut Leap Falls in New Jersey after a conflict with her sister over the existence of God. While exploring the cliff, she slips on a slippery rock, falls off the 60-foot cliff, and suffers severe injuries. Erica experiences a near-death experience, leaving her body and having a life review. She feels a sense of peace and joy and realizes the presence of God in everything. Eventually, an off-duty firefighter rescues her, and Erica defies the doctor's advice and heals quickly with the power of her mind. She overcomes her fears by returning to the cliff and later works as a psychotherapist combining Western psychology and spirituality.
