Beautiful story, the guy filed on for almost 70 years, caused by a hallucination due to the oxygen depravation.
If the experience was so great and "being inside his earth body" was so awful why did he not choose to off himself at the first opportunity?

These are quite common experiences and yes, tend to happen when there's oxygen deprivation, i.e. when they start to die.
Whether it's real or a hallucination, we don't know. What we do know is that these people feel it is real and usually has a very lasting and positive impression on them. They aren't afraid of death anymore and stop taking life too seriously.

lol, great way to use your psychology degree to con people.
Is this taken from her website? "and am currently working towards her Ph.D. in Metaphysics" rather sloppy, isn't it?
The only thing that sounds true in this is " I use intuition to offer guidance to all of my clients,..."
In the last sentence you just need to add "cold" in the right place to make it correct.

Yeah it's weird what NDE's does to people. But they seem happier.

Makes you happier?
It's interesting, we usually associate an oxygen-starved brain with the loss of any higher functions, even simple things are hard or impossible to do, but with NDE's the experience itself seems to be the opposite. A heightened sense of awareness and even sometimes gaining new senses like 360 vision.
Also interesting how many times they can recall what the doctors and nurses said during the resuscitation.

our brains makes sense of the inputs it gets. when you start flipping switches off, its doesn't get those inputs and what it does get. wont be processed correctly. with that being said. its still going to try rationalize the situation when you come to and its going to be grabbing whatever it can to fill those gaps. thats why you only hear about certain types of nde experiences

"its doesn't get those inputs and what it does get. wont be processed correctly"
I get that but why is it always similar? Why not hallucinate about what ever? People have different beliefs and even atheists have similar kinds of NDE's. I'm sure people's beliefs affect what they see but the theme seems to be always the same.
it's not uncommon for them to describe the experience as more real than normal waking consciousness. It kind of goes against what we know about brain activity. Also, the fact that people can know what happens while they're unconscious and can be confirmed by doctors and nurses is kinda of a mystery.
I've fainted a few times in my life and easily get light-headed if I stand up too quickly from a squatting position. The first thing to go is sight and sound, then any comprehension of what's going on around me or where I am. And this happens in a matter of seconds of not enough blood flow to the brain.
This is what you would expect from a brain that's starving for oxygen.

its so similar because nobodies going to record a group of people that describe nothingness during their experience. your not going to get the story of circus clowns devouring souls and all the other stories in between. people are purposefully seeking out people with similar experiences and omitting the ones that are different
its an experience unlike anything else because its an experience of when you're not in the drivers seat. its like the brief period of time when you're waking up from passing out. the lights are on but nobodies home. if you wake up scared and confused. theirs no reasoning with you cause your not in control

There's an infinite amount of things people could hallucinate about but again this theme keeps coming up.
So drawing from that infinite pool of things to hallucinate about, getting the typical NDE hallucination would be actually quite rare and most would be about other things but people just don't talk about them? Would these other kinds of hallucinations also have a lasting and life-changing effect on the person just like the typical NDE? Like if the person had a negative experience would they have a life long trauma from it?

Ph.D. in Metaphysics is not a recognised degree.
