1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 2: And welcome back to our Christmas night program, George Nor

3
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 2: are you with you? Santra champlain with us here, Sandra,

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 2: let's go back to the book or review. How big

5
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 2: is that book?

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 3: Well, I think it's pretty big, but it happens really fast.

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 3: People say it's like an omnimax theater where you see

8
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 3: all these little screens at the same time and you

9
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 3: can experience it all at the same time in three D.

10
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 3: But we remember, we remember George Bailey from It's a

11
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 3: Wonderful Life, one of.

12
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: Our favorite favorite movies shows.

13
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, and talking about a life review. After we

14
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 3: relive life from maybe the negative things that we did

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 3: to impact others, we get to see the positive and

16
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,919
Speaker 3: the ripple effect. So we never know how much our

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 3: actions or our words make a difference. And through that

18
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: we get to see, like George Bailey did about It's

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 3: a Wonderful Life and the difference that we made, and

20
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 3: if we could only experience that right now, and I

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 3: think we can do our own life review right now

22
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 3: and review the good things that we have done and

23
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 3: know how much we make a difference. That being human,

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 3: we really do impact the lives of others, and so

25
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 3: don't discount that.

26
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 2: Want to hear my Jimmy Stewart impression, Yes I do.

27
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 2: All right, here we go all along. Burn my mouth

28
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 2: just bading burn, Remember that I do.

29
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 3: Thanks George, he.

30
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: Used to do that when I was a kid. I

31
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: bet these Christmas stories of near death experiences miracles. In

32
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 2: the next episode of your podcast, Shades of the Afterlife,

33
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 2: you talk about one, don't you. I talk about several.

34
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: I got the honor of interviewing music producer Joshua Silverberg,

35
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 3: who had a near death experience, and he with a

36
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: group of people on the Angel Network. That's one of

37
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: the streaming apps you can get. There's a new TV

38
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 3: show called Miracle eight episodes, and it's about people whose

39
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: lives were transformed medically through medical miracles, through near death experiences,

40
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,239
Speaker 3: through the power of belief, through prayer, through different things.

41
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: And these things aren't wishful thinking. Like this guy. He

42
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 3: was ready to die. He had COVID, he was hooked

43
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: up to all the devices they given the last rites

44
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 3: it was over, and in his moments he actually felt

45
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 3: this joining of the light. You can call it God

46
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 3: and he felt all is well in the world. All

47
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 3: he felt was incredible love and that he was being

48
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 3: cared for, and so he said, okay, bring it on,

49
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 3: you know, like no fear at all. But what happened

50
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 3: was is he reviewed and he of course he's married

51
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: with children and he wanted to live. And so when

52
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 3: he came back these black spots that had filled his lungs,

53
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 3: he was fully back to health. And that's just one

54
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 3: of the miracles. And there was so many others, even

55
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 3: people who have had near death experiences, that were sick

56
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 3: and they were fully healed. And it's almost like people

57
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 3: make this promise with whether you call it God or

58
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 3: the light or the universe, that in response to getting healed,

59
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 3: is just share the good word, that there is a

60
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 3: much bigger picture, that our lives are for a reason

61
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 3: to have faith and that we're always loved and to

62
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 3: make a difference while we're here on planet Earth.

63
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: It is truly remarkable, isn't it how it happens.

64
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 3: It is No one wants to die. There's a lot

65
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: to live for here. But when that moment comes, we

66
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 3: are surrounded by love, there's no fear. We get to

67
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 3: realize that our life here will occur like just a

68
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 3: dream because where we go and being reunited, reunited with

69
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 3: everybody is incredibly real. So our life is for a purpose.

70
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: I don't ever wish to speed up anybody's life because

71
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 3: there's a lot to detect and do here. And even

72
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 3: people who have near death experiences, the ones that might

73
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 3: have shortened their own life, realize that they missed.

74
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:22,559
Speaker 2: Out on a lot.

75
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 3: You know, there's a lot to explore. The more times

76
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 3: we can experience different emotions, do new things, especially with

77
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 3: people we love. Our soul wants to grow, our soul

78
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 3: wants to learn, and I think that's why we're.

79
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 2: Here, Sander. Some people with dementia, for example, snap out

80
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,799
Speaker 2: of it right before they die. How does that happen?

81
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 3: It's incredible. This is a lot of current research on

82
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 3: something called terminal lucidity. It's also called rallying. A lot

83
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 3: of hospice doctors and nurses calling it that somebody could

84
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 3: be checked out for a whole year mentally nothing left

85
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: in their brain, really no brain function left, and moments

86
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 3: or days before they pass, they can become fully alive,

87
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 3: even sit up in bed talking to their relatives, and

88
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: then they pass. This tells us and medical and scientific

89
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 3: professionals that our consciousness is not in our brain. Our

90
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 3: brain doesn't produce it. It comes in from somewhere else,

91
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 3: from the ethers, from the invisible world. And even if

92
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 3: the brain is dead, we are still alive. So we're

93
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 3: on the radio now and people are tapped into Coast

94
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 3: to Coast AM in all the different ways. And just

95
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 3: because our radio breaks or our computer or iPhone goes down,

96
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 3: doesn't mean Coast to Coast AM is not still transmitting.

97
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: And that's just us. Our consciousness is outside of our bodies.

98
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 3: We are connected I think, to all people, all things.

99
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 3: I think in this invisible world, we are connected. And

100
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 3: just because our bodies die, our energy continues on. So

101
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 3: having this terminal lucidity is just one of those facts

102
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 3: that mystify people that if we are just subject to

103
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 3: what's in our brain, you know, it just can't be,

104
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 3: you know, because our brain would die, This wouldn't be possible.

105
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 3: But it just shows that our human being is We're

106
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 3: like radio receivers.

107
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 2: You get many angelic stories going your way.

108
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 3: I do.

109
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 1: I do.

110
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 3: Lots of people believe in angels, and it's a good

111
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 3: time a year to believe in our angels and guardian angels.

112
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 3: But I think our guardian angels and our spirit guides

113
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 3: could all be one and the same. And I say that,

114
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 3: but I don't really know. We'll know when we cross over.

115
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: But there are wonderful stories of people talking to their guides,

116
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 3: talking to their angels, and having great things happen in

117
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 3: their life. I think each one of us has a

118
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 3: being that was a signed to us before we were born.

119
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 3: We met with them, we discussed what life was going

120
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 3: to be like. They said, I'm always going to be

121
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 3: here for you, but you're going to forget. So can

122
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 3: you imagine, George, that you have somebody that just has

123
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 3: looked at you with loving eyes since the day you

124
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 3: were born. You couldn't do any wrong, and they're always

125
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 3: here to support you. But I think the key is

126
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 3: we need to ask them for their support. They don't

127
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: just jump in. Sometimes they do life or death situations.

128
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: I know there's a lot of stories out there with

129
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 3: people that have had some terrible things happen and they

130
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 3: just felt like some divine being jumped into save them

131
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: from an accident. Say, but we have to ask, We

132
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 3: have to be in communication with them. But I also

133
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 3: think we don't just have them. We have our loved

134
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 3: ones who are by our side. We can do something

135
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: pretty fun when we transition to the other side. We

136
00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 3: can multitask, So we could be learning the Kashik records,

137
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 3: we could be in that vast library discovering things. But

138
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: we can also see what our loved ones are doing

139
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: on Earth and be right there by our sides. So

140
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 3: there's a whole heck of a lot of support in

141
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 3: the unseen world around us.

142
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: But so some people, though Sandra, don't get saved. They

143
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 2: the worst happens to them. Why is that?

144
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 3: Is it the worst?

145
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 2: I don't know.

146
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 3: I can tell you, George. When my dad passed fifteen

147
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 3: years ago, we tried everything medically. I started reading about

148
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 3: the power of prayer. I was praying for a miracle

149
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 3: and nothing worked. He still died, Okay, So that became

150
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 3: the worst thing that ever happened to me. There was devastation,

151
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: with relationships breaking within my family. I had a dark period.

152
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 3: But the thing is, had that not happened exactly the

153
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: way it did, I wouldn't have gone on to write

154
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 3: my book to find more evidence of the afterlife. You

155
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 3: and I would never have met now between Shades of

156
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 3: the Afterlife, and I still have my YouTube channel with

157
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 3: interviewing people. I have about eight hundred unique episodes about

158
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 3: life after death. So Dad didn't get saved medically, but

159
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 3: here we are making such a big impact to the world,

160
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 3: giving hope and faith that not only is the afterlife real,

161
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 3: but help through grief and how to have a powerful life.

162
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 3: That I do believe Dad's by my side and he's

163
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 3: just helping out in a different way. So those bad

164
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 3: things that happen, maybe a couple of years down the road,

165
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: you think, oh my gosh, what was the worst thing?

166
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 3: Could have maybe not been the best thing. But you

167
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 3: never know who you'll talk to, who you'll meet, and

168
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 3: your story is just what they need to hear to

169
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 3: comfort them.

170
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 2: I'm told. A couple weeks ago on Apple TV, somebody's

171
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: documentary called Evidence of the Afterlife popped up.

172
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 3: Yes, it's very exciting. For two years we've had it

173
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 3: in them making. It is about the world of evidential

174
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 3: mediumship George, and we're thrilled that it's on Apple TV

175
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 3: now and it'll be on the other streaming platforms. But

176
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 3: the reason we made it is your listeners will know

177
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 3: just how devastating grief is. It is I think the

178
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 3: most painful thing we human beings go through, especially when

179
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 3: a loved one dies and we go looking for answers. Now,

180
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 3: when somebody gets sick and they go looking for answers

181
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 3: and to help ease their pain, they go to a doctor.

182
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 3: Well what do most people do when a loved one

183
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 3: dies and looking for evidence of the afterlife. They'll go

184
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 3: to a medium. The problem is mediums are not trained

185
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 3: like doctors. They don't need to go to school, they

186
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 3: don't need to get a diploma, they don't need to

187
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 3: prove that they've learned for twelve years.

188
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 2: Or anything like that.

189
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 3: So people that have had their hearts broken have gone

190
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 3: to mediums and they've gotten some terrible readings they've gotten.

191
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 3: You know, I don't want to say a lot of

192
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 3: mediums are common artists. Well I'm sure there are, but

193
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 3: I think in the world today we have a lot

194
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 3: of untrained mediums doing the best they can, but they're

195
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 3: charging a lot of money, they're not bringing good evidence.

196
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 3: And so what the film is about, it's following two

197
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: great mediums, Carrie McLoud and Phil Dykes are their names.

198
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 3: Through what proper mediumship is what proper training is. When

199
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 3: you are a recipient of a reading, you are only

200
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 3: to say yes, no, or I don't know. You don't

201
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 3: feed the medium. You look for a medium that offers

202
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 3: a ten minute money back guarantee. If they don't give

203
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 3: good evidence in the first ten minutes the reading comes

204
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 3: to an end, you don't pay. So it raises the

205
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 3: level of mediumship. And we're hoping to inspire not only

206
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 3: people that go to mediums, but actual mediums that you

207
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 3: can have a level of communication with people in the

208
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 3: afterlife that you couldn't even imagine with really good evidence,

209
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 3: and all in all to help grieving hearts and to

210
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 3: help people know they aren't alone. Yeah, it's on Apple TV.

211
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 3: It's called Evidence of the Afterlife.

212
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 2: Thanks you're asking. Good for you, Santra. Do you find

213
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: that during the holiday season more and more people get

214
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,959
Speaker 2: these incredible visitations of the loved ones from the afterlife?

215
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 3: I do, but I don't think it's because the veil

216
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 3: is thinner. There's a belief out there that during the

217
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 3: days of the Dead in October, around Halloween time are

218
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 3: around Christmas, that the veil thins. I don't think that's

219
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 3: the case. I think the veil is always thin. However,

220
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 3: we human beings are so busy we don't slow down

221
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 3: enough to feel our loved one's presence or talk to them.

222
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 3: We know it's a tough time of year with the holidays.

223
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 3: Not everybody is as rosy as I feel right now,

224
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 3: because we have loved ones who have passed or not

225
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: only that, some of us are alone. We're not with

226
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 3: our families. We're grieving that. You know, it's not life

227
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 3: like we thought it would be. And so this time

228
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 3: of year, people start talking to their loved ones more.

229
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 3: They in turn start getting these little signs, these little synchronicities,

230
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 3: whether it's some music playing or smell of Grandma's apple pie,

231
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 3: just seems to come out of nowhere. Our loved ones,

232
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 3: I think, make an extra special effort just to let

233
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 3: us know that we're not alone. But it takes us

234
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 3: having a little bit of a quiet mind and reviewing

235
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 3: some of the memories with our loved ones. And that's

236
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 3: to me, George, the best way we can be in

237
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 3: touch with our loved ones is take a walk down

238
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 3: memory lane. Emotionally think of the good times and how

239
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 3: it made it feel. It sends a signal to them,

240
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 3: and then if you just quiet your mind a little bit,

241
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, other memories of pop up things

242
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 3: you hadn't thought of in years, And those are just

243
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 3: little calling cards that our loved ones are saying, we're

244
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: right here with you.

245
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: Long I've had a lot of friends die in December.

246
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: I don't know why. It's weird. Is there something special

247
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 2: about that month?

248
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: I don't know about that, George. I don't think we

249
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 3: have our exit from this earth planned. Some people believe it,

250
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 3: but I don't really. But I do know that as

251
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: humans we can die of a broken heart. We hear

252
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 3: the story a lots of times when people are married

253
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 3: for sixty years and one passes and then two weeks

254
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 3: later the other one goes. I do think there can

255
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 3: be some melancholy around this time, and so this is

256
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 3: just me speculating, But if we are a little bit

257
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 3: down and maybe our health is failing, maybe just it

258
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 3: being this month gives people that final Okay, let me

259
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 3: check out.

260
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 2: Now, what do you recommend to people who are suffering

261
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 2: extreme grief about their loved ones that have passed on

262
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 2: to the afterlife.

263
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 3: Well, the first thing I recommend is to get a

264
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 3: little bit of grief education, just to understand and what's

265
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 3: in our control and what's not in our control. In

266
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 3: my book We Don't Die, I give more copies away

267
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 3: I think than I sell. If people wish to have

268
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 3: a free PDF copy on my website, We Don't Die

269
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 3: dot Com, you can have one. Chapter ten is about

270
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 3: grief and how to survive it. The fact that grief

271
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 3: is almost one hundred percent out of our control almost.

272
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 3: I say that because our biology actually changes when we

273
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 3: grieve George. We have healthy things called neurotransmitters that go

274
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 3: through our body, things like dopamine and serotonin. When we grieve,

275
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 3: those things are depleted massively, so we cry. We're in pain.

276
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 3: Our memory, our perception, all kinds of things change, and

277
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 3: of course we all feel that incredible pain in our stomach.

278
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: Some of us want to eat too much, some of

279
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: us stop eating, some turn to substance abuses and all that.

280
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 2: So I want to.

281
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 3: Educate people of what's happening in our bodies and what

282
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 3: we can do to raise that healthy level, and being

283
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 3: around people, being around pets, if you can, watching movies

284
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 3: or listening to music that may be made you happy

285
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 3: and in your high school days. There are different things

286
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 3: that we can do to lift that, but I think

287
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 3: once we first start understanding what grief is and what

288
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 3: is it isn't, what's in our control and then what isn't,

289
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 3: and then we can do things proactively to understand that

290
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 3: our loved ones are around.
