EMERGENCY UPDATE!!! PLEASE LISTEN.

This episode is from a live event I did with Dr. Lenore Matthew for her YouTube Channel. Watch the video episode Spirituality for Skeptics: How Evidence of the Afterlife Gives Us Tangible Hope on Dr. Lenore Matthew's YouTube Channel .... Join Liz and Lenore, two analytical former skeptics, for a discussion on evidence of the afterlife and how it gives us hope after loss. Liz Entin is an afterlife researcher, author, and host of the podcast, WTF Just Happened?! Dr. Lenore Matthew is a Dr. of Social Work, an expert in evaluation research, and a trained evidential psychic medium. Find Dr. Lenore Matthew at: www.drlenorematthew.com www.instagram.com/drlenorematthew www.facebook.com/drlenorematthew Find Liz Entin of WTF Just Happened?! at: www.wtfjusthappened.net www.instagram.com/wtfjusthappened www.facebook.com/wtfjusthappened6 Talk Details: As science-minded, analytical people, Liz and Lenore had no reason to think about the afterlife — until their loved one passed away and the world of afterlife communication unexpectedly opened up to them. Liz Entin considered herself a rational person who dismissed the concept of an afterlife as nothing more than wishful thinking. Shattered and lost after her dad’s unexpected death, she was moved to investigate if there was any scientific evidence of an afterlife. This exploration shook her understanding of the world to the core, and led to writing her book and hosting her podcast, both titled, WTF Just Happened?! A sensitive data scientist, Dr. Lenore Matthew's life was forever changed in 2020, when her husband took his own life without warning — and that same night, began coming to her from the afterlife. Her path as a psychic medium awoke that night — a path that was rife with challenges, namely around her skepticism. Today, she helps other people develop their intuitive abilities, and conducts research and evaluation studies of the impact of mediumship and other spiritual healing on people's health and well-being. In this online event, Liz and Lenore present their unique experiences researching and encountering the afterlife after the traumatic loss of a loved one, and how the evidence they've collected gave them tangible hope for the future — even being former skeptics. ⁠Book⁠⁠ ⁠| ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website ⁠⁠⁠ Sponsor links and discount codes WONGO puzzles:⁠⁠ https://zen.ai/wtfjusthappened10⁠⁠ Enter discount code for 10% off: Wtfjusthappened Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/wtf-just-happened-all-about-the-afterlife-no-woo/donations

This is the second episode with ⁠Simon Bown. Simon Bown is the host of The Past Lives Podcast and The Alien UFO Podcast. He has a diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and is certified in Past Life Regression Therapy. He specialises in taking people through past life regressions and has conducted a large number of sessions. He has had many paranormal experiences including psychic flashes, UFO sightings and a number of strange events not easily explained. These have proved to me that there is something more to us than flesh and blood and that we are energetic beings working through a cycle of reincarnation with the aim of experiencing everything there is to be experienced as a human being. He has had three remarkable incidences of feathers showing up in an unexpected and profound way while discussing angels with mediums. He took part in his first past life regression in 1987 at the College of Psychic Studies in London. The thoughts and feelings he experienced have stayed with him to this day. Since then he has viewed several other past lives through hypnotic regression. They have never failed to provoke intense feelings and give him great insight into his life today. He has produced over 250 podcast episodes. Each one is an hour long interview with a researcher or someone who has had an amazing experience. Almost all of the guests have written a book and in preparation for each episode Simon reads the guest's book to give him the knowledge to ask in depth questions. Combining the information and insight gained from the interviews and the books has given him a detailed overview of the concepts of Reincarnation, Near Death Experiences and the continuation of consciousness. Podcast guests include Dr Raymond Moody, Dr Eben Alexander, Whitley Strieber, Dr Bruce Greyson, Dr Christopher Kerr, Dr Jim Tucker and Leslie Kean. The Past Lives Podcast has achieved over 2,000,000 downloads, is in the top 0.5% of podcasts worldwide and recently went to No.1 in the UK Apple podcasts spirituality chart and was No.5 in the USA.

Monica began to get amazing signs (all dimes) after her father passed. Monica L. Morrissey is author of Dimes From Heaven, More Dimes From Heaven and Once Upon a Dime. She is also owner of Intuitive Wellness, where it is all about "soul-care." She is a professor at Southern New Hampshire University where she teaches teachers who are working on their Master’s degree in Curriculum and Assessment. She was an elementary school teacher for 24 years.  She taught middle school math for three years and and then was aCurriculum Director for five years (so she is logical!). Monica has been an educator for over thirty years. Her experience teaching others helped her gain the knowledge she would need for the unexpected career change; becoming an author. At the age of fifty, she published her inspiring Dimes from Heaven, How Coins and Coincidences Helped Me Discover My Life as an Empath book to help others understand our connection to loved ones who are in the spirit world and how our thoughts affect our health. Following her intuition like never before, she began sharing stories about synchronistic events revealing that our souls never die. As an empath and natural-born teacher, her faith is guiding her to help people experience life and death in a whole new way.  Monica was careful to leave spirituality out of the classroom. Since the tragic death of her nephew in 2008, she secretly began reading and studying about mediums, death, grief, and how our body (and life) are affected by our thoughts. She now has a better knowledge about the afterlife to share with others. Her retirement from the public school system allowed her to follow her true passion; helping people who want to learn more about everlasting life and who want to live healthier and happier lives. Monica is a Reiki Master and Instructor, Intuitive Card Reader, Past Life Regression practitioner, and loves to analyze dreams. At her business, Intuitive Wellness, Monica is dedicated to helping clients with soul-care. When she started writing her stories  she knew they were powerful and they would and will continue to help readers experiencing loss. She wants everyone to be able to experience this feeling.Dimes from Heaven  was a finalist for the International Indie Book Awards in the category of death and dying and was an Amazon #1 Top New Release in Supernaturalism.Monica knows how powerful these stories of coincidences are from another dimension. Dimes are her signature sign from heaven and people love listening to her stories. The synchronicities reveal a soul’s life is eternal. Each of her books gives us the tools to open the door to heaven so we are able to feel the deep love for those no longer with us. Follow Monica L.

How good are Liz's protocols when getting a medium reading? Are they different than Kenny's? What are ways to detect cold-readings? Kenny shares some really entertaining "ghost hunts," and how to make sure you assess everything skeptically. Both Liz and Kenny like evidence, try to avoid belief, have the sense of humor of a twelve-year-old, and challenge how one another think, all of which makes this an especially fun episode. Kenny Biddle is the Chief Investigator for the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, skeptical investigator and has a column in the Skeptical Inquirer. Despite his skeptical take (more so than Liz), he has taught a class alongside Loyd Auerbach at The Rhine Education Center "Skeptical Approach to Parapsychology." He used to "believe it all," unskeptically, but after some absurd experiences, he changed his mind and learned how to logically evaluate. While he has concluded differently than Liz and Loyd, and has not concluded an afterlife (or PSI) in general is highly probable, he shares how to protect against fraudulent psychic mediums, how to detect cold-readings, and shares some of the most ridiculous frauds out there, such as $300 ghost-detectors. He has some really fun stories from the field of "ghost-hunting," and he and Liz actually do not disagree on techniques and most of the conclusions.

Consciousness can be created by a brain and there could still be an afterlife. How could that work? Sea Kimbrell has a JD and a PhD in biology, and is a former Professor of Biology. Sea decided to leave academia because he wanted to spend his time thinking about the big questions in life, not where his next grant was coming from. He currently writes from his home in Kansas. He is author of "Atheists in the Afterlife: Eight Paths to Life After Death Without God." As an atheist from a secular family he always wondered what could happen after death. Using his knowledge as a scientist, he realized there ARE ways we can survive death that has nothing to do with god, heaven, or religion. While there has been lots of scientific research on survival of consciousness, Sea takes a completely unique approach to this question. Theories such as a Block Universe related to how time is an illusion and the simulation theory are some of the theories that play into his assessment. Sea and Liz discuss how as two atheists, who think there could be an afterlife, their thoughts are alike and how they differ. Follow Sea Kimbrell: Amazon | Medium Full notes on: ⁠"Atheists in the Afterlife: Eight Paths to Life After Death Without God," Author Sea Kimbrell In this episode: - Sea Kimbrell has a PhD in biology and was a biology professor who took his knowledge to come up with ways there could be an afterlife - Both Sea and Liz agree that there is (most likely) no god - Sea defines a god as a conscious being who could break laws of physics - But could there be other laws of physics in other dimensions - If there was a being that defied the laws, it would make more sense to reevaluate the laws of physics than assume there is a god - Physicists do not understand time - Time could play into a way there could be a type of afterlife - The Block Universe is one way there could be an afterlife - Of the 8 possibilities to life after death Sea wrote about, which does he think is most likely? - Which is leads likely? - Are we possibly living in a simulation? - Do we have free will? - What does Sea think about reincarnation? - The Einstein Twin Experiment and the mystery of time - The research of Drs.

What happens when serious scientific protocols and testing methods are applied to psychic mediums? Can they get accurate information? Is this strong evidence that we actually survive badly death? Guest:⁠Julie Beischel, PhD⁠, Cofounder and Director of Research at the ⁠Windbridge Research Center⁠ and the ⁠Windbridge Institute, LLC⁠ Dr. Julie Beischel is cofounder of the Windbridge Institute (Normalize, Optimize, Utilize Psi) and the Windbridge Research Center (studying dying, death, and what comes next), along with her husband Mark Boccuzzi. She is also Director of Research at the Windbridge Research Center. Dr. Beischel received her PhD in Pharmacology and Toxicology with a minor in Microbiology and Immunology from the University of Arizona. She then took her training as a scientist to apply the scientific method to study psychic mediums. Windbridge and the research team have used tight protocols to conduct up to quintuple-blinded, peer-reviewed studies on psychic-mediums. These studies had astounding results. When you eliminate all opportunities for mediums to cheat (such as giving cold-readings or hot-readings) a portion of mediums can get highly accurate information under these tight controls. The evidence and data of Windbridge strongly points in the direction, that yes, we and our loved ones actually do survive bodily death. .

It took Robert (Bob) Ginsberg, Cofounder of the ⁠Forever Family Foundation⁠, six years of a deep dive into the evidence of an afterlife before he was convinced. However, the science, a bunch of inexplicable signs, personal experiences and readings with psychic mediums all came together to convince him we (most likely) survive death. Bob and his wife Phran (who sadly passed in 2020) are cofounders of the Forever Family Foundation⁠, which they founded in 2004, after the unexpected passing of their daughter Bailey. Forever Family Foundation is an organization dedicated to helping the grieving by using science and evidence to demonstrate that yes, we do survive bodily death. They use a science-based testing protocol to certify psychic mediums to assure they can get accurate information under strict controls which eliminates any opportunity to cheat. They have a scientific advisory board, hold grief retreats, host webinars, and are a very supportive and loving community who get grief.
