Edgar Cayce had a likely Near-Death Experience sometime around 1883/1885 after drowning in a pond whilst fishing. He gained some very strong psychic gifts and went on to do some incredible work in the area of readings and healing. Due to his age, and the lack of information around such phenomena at the time, it can only be speculated in modern times that what Edgar went through was an NDE. Much of this information has been collated from websites, study materials and also the Association for Research and Enlightenment (ARE) via www.edgarcayce.org where Edgar's legacy lives on.

Raymond O’Brien was born into a family of seers. As an adult, his mother foretold of dire consequences if he didn’t ‘change’ his drug and alcohol-fuelled lifestyle. Soon after, a ‘voice’ warned him that he was going to die. What followed was a night of terror and revelation when he found himself rushed to hospital unable to breathe, going into cardiac arrest. Deciding to let himself go, Raymond passed over to the ‘other side’ where he became ‘one with everything’ and encountered spiritual beings. Raymond has gone on to become a counsellor to NDE survivors, is a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists, and is the Uk’s first NDE trauma psychotherapist.

As host of IANDS NDE Radio, Lee Witting not only has a wealth of eye-opening NDE research but is a Near Death Experiencer himself. Lee had his NDE when he drowned as a 7-year-old, and despite its significance, it was an event he would not talk about for quite some time. Lee went on to earn his doctorate in NDE Studies from Bangor Theological Seminary and served for fifteen years as chaplain at Eastern Maine Medical Centre. There, he interviewed hundreds of NDE'rs and worked with others who recounted many personal mystical events, including shared-death experiences, prophecy, and after-death communications. Today, Lee shares details of his experience, his life since, and his research into Non-Ordinary Experiences, past lives, reincarnation and dreams. His new novel, 'Beyond the Phoenix Door', tells a story inspired by real NDEs, and what they reveal about our role in the creation.
