I had never heard the phrase “near death experience” but on a beautiful September day in 1973, my life was changed forever as I discovered its meaning.

All I have are police reports to tell me what happened as I was taking a friend to see my horses that day, but I have never lost the memory of what happened to the part of me that was still very much me.  It was outside of my body that was humped over, lifeless in my car, and it was very much “alive.”  A man had turned in front of us at an intersection on the highway. I hit him and we traveled airborne into a telephone pole and landed in a ditch. My friend was fine, my car was totaled and I had died.

When I awoke days later in the hospital, I remembered only the near death experience, or nde as it is referred to. I had traveled through a tunnel to a place that was unlike anything anyone had ever told me. There was a Presence there that certainly wasn’t like anything that I had been taught. All I felt was an indescribable love—a feeling that no words can convey. And I knew that this was the real essence of God, or what I had been taught to think of as God. And I knew right then that God hadn’t been lurking just beyond my sight, watching and judging my every move in order to determine if I would be allowed into heaven.

I was shown that what was inside of me, my soul, was made of the same essence as the brilliant white light that surrounded me, and that it had great power. I was allowed to understand that we are created with pure potential. The power is within us but with it comes free will. We are given the choice to deny the power, misuse it, or tap into it and use it. And then I was shown a movie of my life. I have to admit that it wasn’t a pretty sight because as a teenager, I really struggled with life. I was angry inside and confused about some things I had gone through that didn’t make sense to me. I doubted that there was a God or anything good waiting after death.

As I reviewed my life, I saw the significance and power of feelings and how feelings send a vibration into the universe that is felt at some level by all things. I saw how I was misusing the power I had been given. I saw in action what is referred to these days as The Universal Law of Attraction.

But I felt only love from this Being of Light who had taken on the form of a warm kind grandfatherly figure. He was comforting me and letting me know that love is the answer to all things. Although I could see that I was wasting my potential, all I felt was love and not condemnation from him.

I was allowed to see and understand many things that are almost impossible to put into words. As much as I wanted to stay where I was, I knew I had work to do on earth that I hadn’t completed. When given a choice, I knew I had to return to my body. I had to find a way to use what I had learned through this near death experience to change my own life and then help others.

Easier said than done!

I awoke in the hospital to the same life I had left and although my near death experience had a profound effect on me, I quickly determined that its meaning was lost on others and that it was better kept to myself. I had reached out to a priest to help me make sense of things but his answer was that I had head injuries. My own father, well meaning I’m sure, told me that I should consider that it was the devil I saw and not God.

I determined that this sacred experience would become my secret that would never be shared again. I would simply seek Knowledge and Truth as I had been instructed. I would find the answers I was looking for on my own and use them to change my life and quietly do what I could for others.

For thirty years, I have researched, experimented, studied and worked with thoughts, feelings, energy and success principles with the desire to make a difference in my world and the world of others. The techniques I use have changed my life.

So when the new century rolled around, I surrendered to the promptings within me.  I knew I hadn’t completed what I was allowed to come back here to do.  I could no longer remain silent about my near death experience, what I learned because of it or what I had discovered.   I became a life coach and also trained in vibrational medicine or vibrational healing, to teach and guide clients in the specific process I use.

I sometimes refer to myself as an Vibrational Healing Success Coach because adding vibrational medicine to my process supplied a vital piece that is often necessary for removing the effects of previous traumatic experiences.  In some situations, without it, it is almost impossible to break through boundaries and limiting beliefs that cause a person to feel stuck and make goals seem beyond reach.

Because I personally use the techniques that I teach in my coaching programs, the anger and fear I once felt and experienced in my near death experience and life review can no longer be found in my life. I am at peace with myself and life and that has caused tremendous improvement in my health also.   There is a simple formula that can help you be at peace in your life too, and attain any goal you feel passionate about,  no matter what you desire to do, be or have.

Several things have touched me in a way that compel me to do as much as I can as quickly as possible to help others connect with the power and guidance available to all of us. It is easy to see that it is time for action.  There are way too many looming threats in the present day-fighting and war, terrorism, nuclear weapons, corporate greed, disease, global warming…and the list goes on and on.

One of the things that touched me deeply was a point made by Edgar Mitchell, former astronaut and founder of IONS, The Institute of Noetic Sciences.  He said “… This is a tiny little planet amongst the rest of creation. We are a speck. We must change. We are headed toward a renaissance or another dark age. We have to find the answer together. Our intention creates our reality. It is the power of our intention to affect the physical world we live in that’s going to be our salvation.”

I heard him speak and then I heard my heart speak to me because my experiences have proven to me how powerful intention is.  So some 30 years after my near death experience, I am telling my story and looking for people who are:

• tired of feeling like victims
• people who are ready to tap into the power within themselves for the guidance they need to solve their problems instead of worrying about them and adding to the mass consciousness of fear

You have access to the answers and to the power to create wealth and abundance, peace and love in your life.  What you think and believe about life is very powerful.  When you change your thoughts, beliefs and intentions, you change your life.    My experiences in “7 True Stories” on the top right have proven that to me!

My life’s work has been to come up with a simple formula that anyone can use to make changes.  I finally organized all of the pieces with the perfect timing for their use in a formula that anyone can follow.

I have used  “Triangle Formula for Success” to manifest

• houses
• cars
• increased income and opportunities
• and most amazingly, stepping stones-things that just seem to fall into place in a way that leads me to the intention I have created.

I know these things can happen for you too. We all have the power to do that. By changing your life and changing your community, you change the world. You help usher in the time of renaissance that Edgar Mitchell referred to instead of the dark age that is closer than any of us want to believe.

Focusing on and attracting what is good is the answer-not dwelling on darkness. But ignoring it and doing nothing doesn’t work either.

I know that life can sometimes feels hopeless and as if there is nothing you can do to change things.  But I know from experience that that is not true and even scientific studies are revealing that your mental powers have an impact on results that can be seen and measured.  You can stop accepting whatever circumstances come your way as if you are powerless to change it. You were born with very powerful gifts and I think we all need to develop and use them to turn things around. 

Get the help you need to learn and practice the art of designing your future and changing the world.  We can set a new course for our loved ones in the generations to come!
