Books and a conference to look forward to

 American Center For The Integration Of Spiritually Transformative Experiences is planning the first retreat for anyone who has gone through an NDE or an STE - in Maui in 2024.  Contact them for more info at info@aciste.org.  If you’ve missed the deadline for 2024, there’s always 2025.

The lifelong work of Claude Swanson is now being released by his family.  They tease us with the idea there may be a fourth book they can print later on.  See what is now available in my May Newsletter.

On May 26, my memoir-autobiography will be available from Amazon.  Maybe even a little before.  A special edition of my newsletter will alert you to this.  The book is EDGE WALKER:  THE MANY LIVES AND DEATHS OF PMH ATWATER.  Look for it.  Or, sign up for the newsletter on my website and news will automatically come to you.  My website is www.pmhatwater.com.

September Conference and October Webinar!

ANNOUNCEMENTS

• Please, join up now to come or see via zoom the big 2022 IANDS Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, September 1-4.  My talk is on that Friday, Sept. 2 from 2 pm to 3 pm.  The last part of my talk I’ll give to my husband Terry, so he can say a few words.  Everyone has been wanting to see and know him.  Well, folks, this is your chance.  

  
  

  Sign up today at https://conference.iands.org.  

  
  

  I mean NOW!  Don’t wait.

• Heads up on another special doings.  On October 15, 1 to 2:30 EDT, I will be doing a special Webinar on Children’s NDEs, as an IANDS production.  Contact Angela Harris at isgo.iands.org to sign up early.  I will start things, then it is my hope everyone can get involved, at least those who want to, so we can really talk.  I mean this to be a helluva time, a chance to confront what few say, but everyone wants to hear.  It would be wise if you first read THE FOREVER ANGELS.  Most child experiencers do not like IANDS.  Why?  We will confront this question and go where it leads us.  The youngest of the young (birth to age 5) do NOT have a before.  This means they look at everything through a completely different worldview than most NDErs, especially if they went through abuse issues.  We must talk about this - and we will.  Sign up today for this Webinar.  Thank you IANDS for daring to do this.

Cancellation and Inspiration

The 15th Annual Springtime Retreat for NDErs May 14-17 at the Mercy Center in St. Louis has been cancelled.  The group of NDErs who put it on each year said:  “We’ll do it in 2021.”

The April Issue of my Free Monthly Newsletter will come out in about a week.  It is chuck full of all kinds of information and stories.  If you’re not a subscriber, sign up in the Newsletter section of my website:  www.pmhatwater.com.  There is an archive of previous issues.  In the April issue, there is an incredibly moving Inspirational Music link toward the end of the Newsletter.  It consists of people all over the world who join in where they are singing the song “Close to You.”  It is a WOW!

Old & New from IANDS & Animal Lights

• IANDS has now come up with a brochure about the major aspects of near-death experiences, and both the physiological and psychological aftereffects, plus the spiritual aftereffects.  This needed brochure was presented to the public at the August Conference of IANDS by Dr. Yvonne Kason. Contact the IANDS office for copies or to volunteer “getting it out there.” services at iands.org Or download here
  
  
• “Psychology Today” featured an article in 2013 called:  Synesthesia’s Links to the Mystical.  Because so many of our youngest near-death experiencers come back with synesthesia, I am recommending that you read that older article again.  It is still relevant. https://www.psychologytoday.com
  
  
• The most in-depth research yet done on those who had their NDE between birth and age five, is now out:  THE FOREVER ANGELS:  NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCES IN CHILDHOOD AND THEIR LIFELONG IMPACT.  A startling surprise!
  
  
• ANIMAL LIGHTS SERIES is an outgrowth of THE FOREVER ANGELS.  It is a series of children’s books, six of them, to help parents find a way in fun and joy to see if their kids remember being in the womb, birth, babyhood, like the animal babies do.  I believe that it is not enough for a researcher to explore the “field” and gather data. We must also address what we find and show “ways” to integrate results. Amazon.com has made it difficult for us to get these books available as we were told they would be.  If you’ve had any problems buying all six books, please know everything is now corrected. There are only four of us making this possible: not some big publisher, so, thank you for your patience! The Animal Lights Series is truly a labor of love.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

*** Ken Ring’s new book is out and it’s funny.  Not like anything he has ever done before.  The title is Waiting to Die:  A Researcher’s (Mostly Humorous) Reflections on His Own Endgame.  You can get a cop via Amazon.com.  “During his many years researching the near-death experience (NDE), Dr. Kenneth Ring was concerned with answering the question, “What is it like to die?”  In this book of fifteen sparkling and delightfully witty essays, his questions become more personal, “What is it like waiting to die”  More specifically, what is it like for an octogenarian who has spent half his life studying and writing about NDEs to face his own mortality? Get a copy. It’s really good!

*** IANDS has a new program and they need more individuals to come forward and agree to present it. . . everywhere you can!  The program is called:  “NDE The Essentials:  What You Need to Know About Near-Death Experiences.”  Dr. Yvonne Kason had five NDEs and is now on the Board of IANDS.  Help her out.

Unitive Experience and A Newsletter for the Curious

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

***The book Beyond the Mystical Near-Death Experience and Into the Unitive Experience by Nancy Clark is now available.  Nancy was part of my first research group investigating the scope of near-death experiences and how they affected the lives of those who had them. She revived in the morgue, much to the shock of morgue personnel. Yes, she was that dead.  And changed because of it, as most are.  

    

Yet it wasn’t her NDE that changed her the most.  Years later, when she was delivering the eulogy in a funeral home for a dear friend, she had a unitive experience - became one with God.  Technically, what she experienced the second time was a “near-death-like” experience. Still, it was so powerful that she was utterly, instantly, totally transformed.  Yes, there are NDErs who speak of this and claim that happened to them too, but when you see Nancy and are around her, you recognize something else (similar to what spiritual wise-ones call “enlightenment”).  Yes, there are NDErs who match her word-forword, yet when you read this book, you recognize a gentle, quiet power that leads you through all hearts to a place no one can define.

A real treasure!!!

*** The March Newsletter is done - filled with some real surprises, especially about Jesus and healing.  If you don’t already subscribe, you easily can.  Just go to my website www.pmhatwater.com, then to the newsletter section, and sign up.  Totally free. There is an Archive so you can read past issues, years of them.  You’ll notice if you do this that the newsletter has transformed over the years, becoming a source of surprises for the truly curious.  There is no other newsletter like this on the entire web.  It’s exists because I truly like to share the joy of living, that which uplifts us and that which concerns us.  This world and everybody in it has been a “star attraction” for me ever since I could focus on what I saw after my birth.  This attraction exploded after I died those three times in 1977.  Thus, the newsletter really is “for the curious.”  No joke.

February 2019 News & London, UK Talks & Workshops

The February newsletter is out now.  Please subscribe, if you haven’t already.  Just go to my Website at pmhatwater.com, then to Newsletter, fill out the form, and you’re in.  No cost. Notice there is an Archive of previous issues. You’ll want to visit some of them, maybe all.

The first week of March 1 - 6, I will be in London, England giving talks and workshops.  Connect with Daniel at the Neter Vital shop for more information.  Come if you can:  daniel@netervital.co.uk.  

Scott Taylor, emcee at yearly IANDS conferences, has just been named the new CEO and Executive Director of the Monroe Institute.  A real plus for him and for both IANDS and the Monroe Institute.

There’s a new NDE book you might want to know about.  It is called “Beyond The Mystical:  Near-Death Experience and Into The Unitive Experience, by Nancy Clark.  Most of you know that Nancyhad both an NDE (she regained consciousness in the morgue after being pronounced dead and toe-tagged), and a Near-Death-Like Experience while delivering a eulogy at the funeral of a dear friend. She has written several books, all of them exceptional, yet her devotion to God and to prayer skyrocketed afterwards, enabling her to reach heights of spirituality inspiring to many.

The Forever Angels

ANNOUNCEMENTS


* Barbara Bartolome, Founder/Director of the Santa Barbara IANDS group, 
was cleaning out a very stuffed garage, when she opened up some old 
boxes containing papers from her Dad.  In one turned out to be an article 
written by him (George B. Causey) - about his near-death experience.  
No one knew.  He never whispered even one word about it.  The article 
was not only a surprise but touching in its specialness.  Barbara gave me 
permission to post the entire story of the find, as well as the article itself, 
on my website.  It will be there soon, in the NDE Cases section.  
Then everyone can be amazed at what amazed her.  

Thank you, Barbara, for your graciousness.


* After many “squirks and squarks,” the manuscript for The Forever Angels is safe in the arms of the Editorial Department of Inner Traditions. 
Yes, this ground-breaking book will be out August, 2019.  Get prepared. 
This study of those who had an NDE at birth, as a babe or toddler, up to
age five, and womb memories will change what we think we know about
the near-death phenomenon.  Tiny ones are not like older children, tweens,
teens, or adults.  


Not only are they different, they tend to view older experiencers and their
talk about love and light as foreign and nonsensical.  A whole new view -
that will both scare you and thrill you.

Register Now for These Unique Conferences

ANNOUNCEMENTS 

Register NOW for the big, giant near-death conference to be held August 30-September 2 in Bellevue, Washington. Sponsored by IANDS, this one will feature “The Aftereffects.” Yes, I’m going. For you to come too, register on www.iands.org, or call the office at services@iands.org. Their phone is (919) 383-7940.

A conference on Co-Creative Spirituality, sponsored by the Findhorn Foundation in Findhorn, Scotland, is September 22-28. Yes, this is the famous gardens of Findhorn, where, after decades of breaking all rules about gardening in sandy soil in the cold northlands of western Scotland, they are now devoted to “growing people,” passing on to others how to use their methods of working with angels and fairies in the Unseen Worlds. I’ve been there. The place is truly magic, and wondrous, and more than incredible. The conference webpage is www.findhorn.org/programmes/co-creative-spirituality. Any questions, contact editor@findhorn.org. 

“Consciousness Continues” is a video project of Heather Dominguez that has several sections. The whole program is masterful. Heather is certainly a very creative and clever producer who has given all of us an opportunity to view near-death experiences in a unique way. Episode 2 is now on Amazon and available to rent. Your link to use is: https://www.amazon.com/Before-My-Near-Death-Experience/dp/B0736FN3JC/. 

Announcements for March

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Plan now for March 3 and 4 in Virginia Beach, VA. That’s when the original talk and workshop I was slated to give in early January, will actually happen. The January affair was canceled because of that “bomb hurricane.” Remember? Virginia Beach got 12” of snow. Can you imagine Virginia Beach under 12” of snow? ‘Twas very freaky. Well, weather has finally settled down a bit (hopefully) and we’re set for a redo. Activities will be held in the Edgar Cayce Headquarters Building on 67th and Atlantic Avenue, starting time 10 am. The talk will be about A Manual for Developing Humans and that sense of “mission” many of us have. A powerpoint of all the thoughtform drawings in the Manual will accompany what is shared. The workshop features exercises and ideas from the Manual, plus a discussion about important times to come - for all of us.

I believe that starts at 1 pm. The next day, Sunday, I will deliver a sharing at the Fellowship of Inner Light Church. For details about any of this, contact Neil Helm at neil.helm@cox.net.
