A Near Death Experience
from Our Paranormal Afterlife : Finding Proof of Life After Death · host Simon Bown
This week I'm talking to Tricia Barker about her book 'Angels in the OR: What Dying Taught Me About Healing, Survival, and Transformation' Tricia Barker was a depressed, agnostic college student at The University of Texas in Austin...until a profound near-death experience (NDE) during surgery revolutionizes her entire world. As she learns to walk again, Tricia lets go of painful wounds from childhood and integrates some of the aftereffects of her spiritual journey into her daily life. She returns to college with renewed vigor, intending to embark on a new path by becoming an English teacher. But after a year of teaching in the US, Tricia travels to South Korea, where she is the victim of a sexual assault. Now, she must use the wisdom she gained on the Other Side to heal herself; and later, guide countless junior high, high school, and college students to greater peace. Through teaching and mentoring others--many of whom are struggling with traumas of their own--Tricia decides to devote her life to bringing the "light" she experienced during her NDE to individuals who are seeking solace, inspiration, and overall well-being. Bio Tricia Barker experienced a profound near-death experience during her senior year of college, and this experience guided her to teach overseas, in public schools, and at the college level. Her near-death experience story has been featured on I Survived: Beyond and Back, Season 1, Life to Afterlife: Death and Back, National Geographic Magazine, Simple Grace Magazine, Women’s World Magazine, Coast to Coast AM, GAIA, WFAA, and The Doctor Oz Show. Tricia’s memoir, Angels in the OR: What Dying Taught Me About Healing, Survival, and Transformation, is available as an e-book, paperback, and through Audible. Tricia is a graduate of The University of Texas. She received her MFA in Creative Writing from Goddard College. She is a professor, author, medium, and theta healer. Tricia also interviews other near-death experiencers, researchers, healers, spiritual teachers, and mediums on her YouTube Channel. https://triciabarkernde.com/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/Angels-Taught-Healing-Survival-Transformation-ebook/dp/B07NGQZSHL https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyIstVbBhilo1gdUmazkReQ?view_as=subscriber Zen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_paranormal https://simonbown.com/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFPMy book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_paranormal Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
