The near-death experience : a seminar

This project was an attempt to develop a seminar for the application of what near-death studies research findings ]seem to suggest: That a warm, supportive group setting, such as this proposed seminar, in which the near-death experience itself is used as a major therapeutic tool to assist participants to confront and dispel their fear of death, can be the catalyst for a major psychological and spiritual shift in consciousness in which all the values, philosophies and attitudes are re-evaluated and transformed. It is hypothesized that a seminar setting, within which survivors of such an experience could share their stories and demonstrate, through their attitudinal. change a model for the participants to use to overcome their fear of death and by doing so, transform their attitude toward life itself.
