Spiritual Awakenings: Insights of the near death experience and other doorways to Our Soul

Haven't read this yet. It was shipped and came on time and in the condition promised.

I'm the Author

I wrote this book in the early 90s after doing six years of research on the Aftereffects people develop after having a spiritual awakening. I had a powerful near-death experience in the mid 70s and was able to do my research in a University Medical School with wonderful colleagues like Bruce Greyson, MD and Ken Ring, PhD. This book has suddenly become popular because here we are 12 years later and people are talking about their spiritual experiences. And they want to know what all these new feelings and ideas are about. This book is about knowing we are all right and this is part of our evolution. Go to a traditional MD and you're going to be put on anti-depressants or even worse, anti-psychotics. That will stop the process that we've long waited to start.

Great !

Ahead of her time, this book came out in 1995. Whitfield explains in a practical way the experiential and heartfelt aftereffects of spiritual awakenings. Having a living connection to God or a Higher Power isn't as easy as we thought. Our newfound vulnerabilities in a world where God is an intellectual belief needs to be discussed. She lays the foundation for that clearly and shows us useful spiritual skills. Highly recommended!!

everything you need to know under one cover

Barbara Harris Whitfield was in the perfect position as a researcher and near-death experiencer in the early 90s to understand what so many of us couldn't -- that we're not going crazy after a spiritual awakening! Instead of reading a dozen books to understand the after effects of awakening -- she has it all in one. The best part for me is that she doesn't separate herself as a researcher and clinician. She talks about all this first person. There have been many books written on this subject since hers was published in 1995, but Ms. Whitfield's is still the one that has it all under one cover.
