"While providing many remarkable accounts of near-death experiencs (NDEs), Lessons from the Light is much more than an inspiring collection of NDEs. In clear language, the practical lessons for living and dying are to be found from the study of these experiences. Written by one of the foremost authorities on NDEs, Lessons from the light is a book for those looking to gain knowledge and wisdom to enhance their own lives by incorporating the insights stemming from what many people have come to believe is the ultimate spiritual experience. Lessons from the Light includes helpful guidance and practical exercises concerning how readers can make use of this knowledge to live with greater self-insight, self-compassion, and concern for others, as well as be better prepared for death, dying, and bereavement. Readers can easily apply what they have learned to their own lives, and absorb and internalize these lessons from the Light in such a way as to lead to deep personal and spiritual transformation"-- Back cover.
