After spending seven days in a coma with a rare and life-threatening form of bacterial meningitis, renowned neurosurgeon Dr Eben Alexander says he experienced a reality beyond this world—one that challenged everything he thought he knew about life, death and consciousness.

Before his near-death experience, Dr Eben was a respected brain surgeon who believed consciousness was created entirely by the brain. But what happened during those seven days would completely transform his understanding of reality and lead him to write the international bestseller Proof of Heaven.

In this profound and thought-provoking conversation, host - Mel Histon - and Dr Eben explore some of humanity's biggest questions:

✨ What happens when we die?
✨ Does consciousness survive beyond the physical body?
✨ Can we reconnect with loved ones after death?
✨ What is a life review?
✨ Why are so many people reporting near-death experiences?
✨ Is there a deeper purpose behind suffering and grief?
✨ What role does love play in the journey of the soul?

Dr Eben also shares the extraordinary story of meeting a woman during his near-death experience who would later be revealed to be his biological sister—someone he had never met in this lifetime.

Whether you're curious, skeptical, grieving someone you love, or simply searching for deeper meaning, this conversation offers a fascinating exploration of life, death and the possibility that we are far more than our physical bodies.

One message sits at the heart of Dr Eben's story:

"You are deeply loved and cherished forever."
