Are near-death experiences real?
In this thought-provoking discussion, psychologist Susan Blackmore shares her transformative out-of-body experience and her lifelong quest to understand Near-Death Experiences (NDEs). Neuroscientist Jimo Borjigin presents groundbreaking findings on brain activity during cardiac arrest, suggesting that these experiences might be linked to physiological phenomena. Meanwhile, Dr. Christopher Timmermann explores parallels between NDEs and psychedelic states, probing the role of DMT. Together, they unveil the science behind these enigmatic experiences and their implications for consciousness.
