Speaker: Dr. Peter Fenwick (video homily)
Dr. Fenwick provides both an account of his research into Near-Death Experiences and a practical discussion of “what do we really know about dying,” the circumstances around near-death experiences, and how consciousness changes when the heart stops. He also relates, very practically, how to prepare for death. Fenwick provides much hope for death being a good experience. Statistically, from accounts of near-death experiences, it will likely be your mother you see at the moment of death.
Bio: Neuropsychologist Dr. Fenwick was born in Nairobi in 1935 and died in London, England, in 2024. He was a senior lecturer at King’s College London, where he worked as a consultant in the Institute of Psychiatry.
