Near-death experiences (NDEs) are common, well-documented, and similar across cultures throughout the world. Current estimates are that between 4 and 15 percent of the world's population have had an NDE. Therefore, almost everyone has either had one or knows someone else who has had one. Some of the fascination with NDEs comes from the fact that they often result in great leaps in personal growth. These leaps are characterized by the loss of the fear of death, the healing of deep hurts, an increase in self-esteem and compassion for others, a sense of union with all things, and a clearer sense of how to fulfill one's purpose in life. This is a book that teaches readers how to reap the benefits of NDEs without having to experience trauma. In the course of their many workshops around the world, the authors have discovered that when one immerses oneself in accounts of NDEs, one can experience love, hope, healing, and a sense of purpose. This is the only book that systematically encourages the reader to create a spiritual and psychological healing practice based on NDEs. Each chapter includes an account of a fascinating NDE, followed by a series of questions, meditations, exercises, and video links. The reader is encouraged to contemplate these stories and their own lives. It is truly a profound guide to both living and dying.

You Are Dearly Loved was written to help you feel Spirit’s love for you—no matter who you are in the eyes of society, no matter what you’ve done or neglected to do. The author recounts the story of her awakening to Spirit’s love, beginning with a mystical experience where an energy of such immense power and love burst through her that, for the first time in her life, she felt truly loved. In a life filled with chronic illness and depression, it was a miraculous moment and she would never be the same again. After years of meditating, she began to receive messages of love from Spirit for others, and there are several “Messages from Spirit” for you throughout the book. You Are Dearly Loved also addresses the issue of how the culture can make it difficult to remember who we really are—infinite awareness and infinite love.
