Omega December 1, 2024 Feven Seifu, Rakesh Maurya, Amanda C DeDiego
Near-death experiences prompt shifts in awareness, priorities, and relationships. This narrative inquiry examined the stories of four individuals who had such experiences, exploring their lives before and after. Common threads across their accounts included interactions with death, life after death, and finding meaning in life after death. The findings detail how mortality awareness connects with life experiences, how life changed following these encounters, and the meaning-making process that death awareness initiates. The discussion considers implications for professionals in death and trauma-related fields.
