What is a NDE or Near Death Experience?
A near-death experience (NDE) is typically a profound, life changing, intensely emotional experience that usually occurs during a clinical crisis and has common characteristics and aftereffects. It is not a dream, hallucination, or mental illness (Greyson, 1983). There are no predictive variables to identify who will have an NDE. They happen to people of all ages, religions, socio-economic groups, cultures, educational backgrounds, and belief systems. They occur under a variety of circumstances such as accidents, near-drownings, illnesses, combat, surgical procedures, and childbirth. Following an NDE, experiencers (NDErs) often display some common aftereffects. Research has established a set of common NDE characteristics and long-term aftereffects.

Common theories used to explain near-death experiences have been proven inadequate by NDE researchers and others. Research has shown near-death experiences are NOT caused by the following:

· Dying brain (e.g., the brain is hallucinating as cells begin to die)
· Lack of oxygen to the brain
· By-product of brain disorders
· Medication and neurochemical reactions in general
· Hallucinations from altered blood gas levels (e.g., hypoxia or hypercapnia)
· Brain mechanisms designed to make dying easier for humans
· Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) being released by the body
