William Peters, author of At Heaven's Door, talks with @GailRubin in her Books to Die For interview series. The book's subtitle is "What Shared Journeys to the Afterlife Teach About Dying Well and Living Better."
You may have heard about Near Death Experiences (NDEs), when someone's body is clinically dead for a period of time. The person's consciousness leaves the body and travels to mystical realms before returning to life in the body. A Shared Death Experience (SDE) is when a person who is not dying shares the experience of someone who is dying.
In this interview, Gail Rubin and William Peters discuss:
1. The differences between Near Death Experiences and Shared Death Experiences.
2. What drew the author to this field of study.
3. How are people who experience SDEs affected afterwards?
4. Why don't people want to talk about SDEs with others?
5. The most prevalent features of a SDE.
6. Study results of SDEs conducted by the Shared Crossing Research Initiative.
William Peters has experienced both NDEs and a SDE, and founded the Shared Crossings Project to scientifically research and document the Shared Death Experience phenomenon. Recognized as a global leader in the field of shared-death studies, he has spent decades studying end-of-life experiences. A practicing psychotherapist, his work on the end of life is informed by his therapeutic work with individuals facing grief and bereavement, personal experiences with death and dying across cultures, and his family's own end-of-life journeys.
Peters wrote At Heaven's Door with Michael Kinsella, Ph.D., chief researcher at the Shared Crossing Research Initiative. Learn more at www.sharedcros....
