Let's Talk Near Death

In September of 2012 Chris Batts jumped out of a moving car in an attempt to end his life. He was surprised to find himself outside of himself, looking down on his body as paramedics worked on him. He met with a man he calls ‘God’, as well as meeting his guardian angels, with whom he was given the choice as to whether to return to his body or not. Following his NDE, Chris found he could communicate with his guardian angels, and now works to inspire others via his Youtube Channel (nobadvibes_7). Chris is also the author of Boom! The Life and Times of a Suicide Near Death Survivor available at:https://www.amazon.com.au/Boom-Times-Suicide-Death-Experiencer-ebook/dp/B07QYK3MDV/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=chris+batts&qid=1573539241&sr=8-1

In 1988 Lesley Lupo was crushed by a stampede of horses whilst she worked on the ranch which was home to 130 horses. She remembers ‘popping’ out of her body, and watching as her body was dragged along the ground. Her colleagues performed CPR, which failed to revive her, and she lay motionless for up to 14 minutes. During this time, Lesley had an incredible near death experience before coming back to her body. Today, Lesley is a gifted healer, an NLP specialist, and author of the book ‘Remember, Every Breath is Precious: Dying Taught Me How to Live’.

In 1983, Paula Lenz began to have a reoccurring dream. One which she soon realised was a precognitive warning. Then the sudden shocking loss of her brother Don, came close to completely destroying Paula. She did not know that his death would result in strange occurrences, and outreach from him for the rest of her life. Three days after Don’s funeral, Paula had an incredible out-of-body experience with her brother’s spirit while she was driving. The result was a visit to “Infinity” and a change in her consciousness and an understanding of Oneness. Paula has since written a book about her experience called ‘Driving into Infinity’ where she shares her experience, and also recounts stories about her brother from her family as well as from Don’s closest friends. She hopes her story will provide comfort to those who have experienced the loss of someone they love deeply.

In 1997 Jeff Olsen and his family had a horrific automobile accident. An accident took the lives of his wife and youngest son, also inflicting multiple life-threatening injuries to Jeff, including the amputation of his left leg. Jeff has an exceptional story of resilience and recovery, and also of spiritual encounters he had over this time. Following the accident, Jeff had a Near Death Experience (NDE), an Out of Body Experience (OBE), and one of the Emergency room doctors had a Shared Death Experience (SDE) with Jeff’s wife just after the accident took her life. Jeff found the courage to survive over 18 surgeries, and to eventually heal both physically and emotionally, and to thrive in his career and community contributions.​ ​Among all of Jeff’s accomplishments, he is most proud of and most fulfilled by simply being a husband, father and friend. Jeff’s latest book, “Knowing,” is a compilation of his earlier works, yet with even deeper insights and extended chapters, while maintaining the same emotional connection of Olsen’s body of work.

Dr. Jeff O’Driscoll, was an emergency physician who, from time to time, received messages that helped him care for patients. Occasionally they led me to a diagnosis he hadn’t considered. Some people, however, were simply too ill or too injured to survive. And, when a patient died, sometimes he saw their spirit—their eternal essence—leave their body. It was in the ED that Dr. O’Driscoll witnessed an incredible event. He saw the wife of a man who had just experienced a horrific car accident. Both had been travelling together along with their two children. The wife died in the accident, whilst her husband, Jeff Olsen, experienced a profound NDE. The connection following this event have been life changing for both Jeff’s, and they have been close friends ever since. Today I chat with Dr. O’Driscoll, not only about this profound experience, but other experiences he has had, and his incredible time in the medical profession. ____________ More of Jeff at: www.jeffodriscoll.com In his latest book, Not Yet, Dr. Jeff O’Driscoll grabs highlights from his twenty-five years in the emergency department and walks readers through a series of near-life experiences that open a window into a spiritual world.

Tessa Shahid (Williams at the time of recording) has experienced trauma after trauma. From her Father having a major stroke when she was only 11 years old, through to her Mother having a different major illness when she was 18, Tessa learned what it was like to simply survive. Nursing both of her parents, becoming the main income earner and trying to get an education all at once proved to be too much. The three of them ended up living in a car, and struggling to get by. Tessa experienced sexual abuse, a miscarriage and many dark days which led into weeks, which led into years, and only just recently has Tessa learned how to restart life. Today her approach is simple - to be grateful, courageous, and optimistic.
