Visions of Heaven
A Journey through the Afterlife
by Lisa Miller
In her article in “Time,” aptly posted at 12:01 AM on Easter Sunday, Lisa Miller begins with the question–
If you’ve seen heaven, does that mean it exists?
The article is adapted from her above book, Visions of Heaven, in which she takes us on a journey through the afterlife through history, art and recent scientific research.
I’ve taken a 40-year journey myself in my quest for understanding, not just my own near-death experience but those of others, which led me through the history of religions and into the realms of quantum physics, the supernatural and psychedelics. You can read some of it in my ebook Sitting in the Lotus Blossom. I look forward to reading Ms. Miller’s book and will write a review here after I do.

The Last Adventure of Life
Inspiring approaches to living and dying
by Maria Dancing Heart Hoaglund
I highly recommend this new release by a dear friend and colleague Maria Dancing Heart Hoaglund for anyone dealing with a life-threatening illness or who is a caregiver for someone who is very ill or near death, or for anyone who is sitting in a hospital waiting room watching over a loved one. This is the 4th incarnation of her life-affirming guide into our last adventure of life.
As a Transition Guide myself, I recommend her books to all those I come in contact with in my work with the dying. I require it of my students and have given copies to many of my senior friends.
Maria moved to Sedona, Arizona a year or so ago, as you can see from her book’s beautiful cover, where she has flourished as a hospice minister and end of life counselor.
If you have a friend or loved one who is grieving or nearing the end of life or is caring for an ill loved one and is open to talking about new ways to explore spirituality and death, or if you yourself are facing this journey in the near future, I suggest this book as a compassionate companion along the way.
The book is filled with inspirational stories, poems, prayers, scriptures and guided meditations supported by chapters on grief, relaxation tools and additional reference materials that will help readers reframe their experience of death into one of transition and transformation– a new adventure of life into the true nature of Reality.
