I Died & Wanted to Stay in Heaven with Dianne Sherman

On today's episode, we welcome Dianne Sherman, a woman whose journey from near-death to spiritual awakening left an indelible mark on her life. Her story isn't just about survival but a rebirth into understanding, healing, and transcending the mundane. Through her experiences, she invites us to consider a world of profound love and endless possibility, far beyond what our minds can grasp.Dianne begins by recounting a life that seemed to hit a wall before her near-death experience. Divorced, with a young daughter, and struggling to find her next step after a career in modeling, she reached out for guidance. "I went to church and prayed and said, you know, help. I need some guidance. What am I doing? Where am I going?" And then, three days later, her life changed forever. A routine surgery led to an out-of-body experience that transported her to a space beyond this world.What makes Dianne Sherman's story so compelling isn't just her detailed recollection of floating outside her body, observing herself from above, but her emotional disconnection from the physical body lying below. She speaks of feeling no attachment to the "her" on the hospital bed, instead feeling neutral and observational. She was led into an all-encompassing white light, a presence so comforting and loving that she describes it as "coming home to self."Her story takes an even deeper turn when she describes encountering two rows of monks during her near-death experience. These monks, dressed in robes with faceless hoods, stood in a kind of sacred procession. One stepped forward to tell her it was not her time, a moment that left her devastated as she begged to stay in that divine space. But as she thought about her daughter, the reality of her responsibilities pulled her back into her body.The aftermath of her near-death experience revealed itself quickly. Suddenly, Dianne Sherman was clairaudient, clairsentient, and clairvoyant. She began hearing and sensing everything around her, a flood of energy and voices that initially left her feeling psychotic. Yet, she gradually understood she had been given a gift—a form of clear sight, which allowed her to perceive not only the essence of people but also to connect deeply with the spiritual realm. "I clearly see who you are, how you are. I can feel all of you. I can feel your heart," she explains.SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSThe Power of Unconditional Love: As Dianne states, "There’s nothing but unconditional love on the other side." It’s a love that heals and holds no judgment, and it’s the essence of our being.Embracing Our True Self: Her near-death experience forced her to reconcile with her real essence, shedding societal facades and learning to love herself in a deeper, spiritual sense.Trusting the Journey: Dianne emphasizes that we are all supported and loved, even when life feels overwhelming. It’s about remembering that we’re never alone and that guidance is always present if we choose to align with it.Dianne’s experience reminds us that the spiritual journey is not about perfection or escaping difficulties but about embracing the full spectrum of existence. She beautifully conveys how we can create “heaven on earth” by consciously choosing joy, magic, and the loving presence of spirit in our daily lives. Her advice for those nearing death or facing the loss of a loved one is deeply comforting: "There’s nothing but love and joy on the other side."Please enjoy my conversation with Dianne Sherman.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.
