NDE & Psychic Gifts with Emphasis on Healing Gifts: A Study of Over 250 NDEs
Jeff Long, M.D. & Jody Long, J.D.
Over 250 NDErs have responded to a web form
questionnaire on the Near-Death Experience Research
Foundation web site. Two relevant
questions were analyzed in depth. "Has your experience
resulted in changes in any of the following:" including "Increased
sensitivity, healing or psychic abilities." The second
question was "Did you have any psychic, paranormal or other special
gifts following the experience?" A chi square analysis was
performed. Careful analysis of the narrative responses will
clarify the spectrum of psychic and healing gifts described by
NDErs.
The presenters will compare the findings of this study with
results from other published research. Discussion will be
encouraged. NDErs with psychic or healing gifts are invited
to attend, as is anyone interested in the topic.
