“We are all truly connected in a deep sense. The concept of oneness and love is a healing property we can all tap into.”

We address:

●    Lessons that Dr. Alexander gleaned from his near-death experience

●    The difference between consciousness and non-local consciousness

●    How to access a higher state of consciousness

●    Why understanding what happens at and after death can help us live better lives now

●    The vital role of intention

Dan welcomes Dr. Eben Alexander and Karen Newell, who were featured on the show back in 2019. Dr. Alexander is known for the near-death experience that he writes about in his 2012 NYT Bestseller Proof of Heaven.

3 MAJOR POINTS DISCUSSED

●    The Golden Rule—”Treat others as you want to be treated.”—is written into the very fabric of the universe. This, says Dr. Alexander, is the fundamental lesson he took from his near-death experience. We are all called to embrace oneness and love, because every single human being is connected and is of equal value. Therefore, it is only right that we treat each other with utmost dignity and respect.

●    Seek out and cultivate experiences with your inner world. Meditation and prayer are among the most common ways to do this, but there really are a ton of ways to nurture your spiritual life. It’s so easy to get caught up by the stories of others or by books and documentaries claiming proof of the spiritual world; but there is really no better way to experience these truths than by experiencing them in ourselves.

●    With everything going on in the world right now, we need to be more connected and trust the Universe a lot more. There has been so much bereavement in the past year-and-a-half that personal exploration of our consciousness and dropping the ego mind are more crucial than ever before. By doing something as simple as meditating, you can put your ego mind on time-out and get in touch with your higher soul. You’ll start feeling at home in this universe, and finally start bringing those gifts of oneness and connection into the lives of others, bringing the world to the next level.
