I gave this talk at the Laguna Woods "Life After Life" group a couple of Saturdays ago. I asked at some point "How many are familiar with my work?" and then tailored my talk to that response.
I never know what I'm going to talk about until I show up at these events. That sounds whimsical or perhaps lazy - but I try to tailor whatever it is I'm talking about to the people in front of me. When you hear me start to modulate my voice - SPEAKING LOUDER it's because of the folks asleep in the audience.
Doesn't change the content of what it is I'm saying. I was surprised to click on their webpage and see that 40K folks have already watched this.
So I'm posting it again for whomever may run across this page.
The references within are to the books "Flipside" "It's a Wonderful Afterlife" "Hacking the Afterlife" and "Backstage Pass to the Flipside: Talking to the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer." (see panel to the right for LINKS)
I'm citing "deep hypnosis sessions" with Scott De Tamble (lightbetweenlives.com) and interviews via medium Jennifer Shaffer (JenniferShaffer.com).
By the way, during the talk, I mention how Dr. Eben Alexander was guided around his near death experience by his sister who "died before he was born." I've been told since that his sister (whom he never met) died "a month before his birth family reached out to him."
So he did not know her, could not have known her, but when he met her during his near death event, felt "as if he had known her forever."
Also in my telling the story of how Junior Seau and Dave Duerson had shown up to greet Paul Allen on the flipside, I mention how they were trying to show Jennifer someone they wanted to applaud for his work with brain trauma; CTE. And that was Joe Namath.
Joe has reportedly cured CTE - and Jennifer and I were not aware of it - but they are aware of it on the flipside, and during the course of three interviews, kept repeating a quarterback named "Joe" that Jennifer should mention or reach out to. I finally did some research looking up "living quarterbacks" and "CTE" (as opposed to those suspected of dying from it) and discovered this information.
That Joe Namath has shown how to cure CTE using hyperbaric oxygen treatment. (It's used for PTSD, shock and other things, but no one had done it for CTE before Joe's clinic in Jupiter Florida.)
As I recount this story, I mention how they were showing her a number of quarterbacks to try to get her to recognize a photo of Joe Namath they were "showing her." She saw "Joe Montana" (and remarked, "I know he's still alive") and then showed her a photo of Fran Tarkenton (who also is still alive.) I looked up Fran's name with reference to CTE and he has spoken out forcefully about his opinions on the topic, but is NOT suffering from it. So apologies to Fran's family and friends for making that comment - it was in error.
But this is an unusual talk - and I only know that because I watched it again. As you can imagine, when you don't plan what you're going to say until you arrive at the venue, you tend to forget whatever it was that you were going to talk about.
Finally - some folks point out that I mention that I was going to talk about a "technique for connecting with loved ones on the flipside." I didn't mean to leave that out - it's simply that I was going to say this; it came during a session with Jennifer Shaffer as reported in "Backstage Pass."
Someone on the flipside told us 1. say the name of your loved one. 2. ask them questions. 3. when you hear a reply before you can ask the question you'll know you've made a connect.
Simple. That's it. I heard from a guy last week, scientist in England who did that - he pictured his mother in front of him, imagined she was holding his hand. He waited about ten minutes and then asked "who was there to greet you when you crossed over?" and heard a name"
"Hugh Nessel."
He had no idea who that might be, so he wrote his sister, the keeper of family stories, and she wrote him back and said "That was her grandfather, you're great grandfather, why?"
As the scientist wrote me - "this technique has shaken me to my core." It was new information - he didn't know it, but someone long gone, no longer on the planet, reported that simple detail and he discovered who that was.
In the longer version of this, I tell people to
1. Say the name of the loved one aloud.
2. take out a photograph and focus on when it was taken, what it felt like, who was there, the sound of their voice. (accessing a packet of time).
3. Ask simple yes or no questions at first - how are you, are you here, etc until you begin to "hear" or see a "nod," "Shake of the head" or a shrug. (Or no answer). Keep going until you get a reply.
Then ask more complicate questions but ones only they know the answer to "Who was there to greet you?" "What do you miss about being on the planet if anything?" "Who are you hanging out with?" "What do you want to tell your friends or relatives?"
"When you hear (or see/sense) an answer before you can form the question you'll know you've made a connection." Got it?
My two cents.
