SANTA BARBARA — Founder of Sharing Crossing Project (SCP) and author of At Heaven’s Door, William Peters, hosts “Awaken to the Transformational Power of the Shared Death Experience (SDE) with special guest and founder of The Centre for Sacred Deathcare, Sarah Kerr PhD,” at 5 p.m. Thursday, April 7.
Most people are afraid of death of dying and fear that their loved ones might die alone. Death is also stressful, as all too often it comes without adequate preparation. Our culture views death as the ultimate finality–the end of all things.
As such, our society encourages us to avoid discussing death, overcome feelings of grief, and dismiss serious consideration of life after death. The cumulative effects of this are that we know very little about dying, death, and what might exist afterward.
That is precisely why Peters is presenting Awaken to the Transformational Power of the Shared Death Experience (SDE). This free live webinar will introduce viewers to shared death experiences, which are extraordinary experiences in which people report sharing in a dying loved one’s transition to a benevolent afterlife.
In this free online event, you’ll discover three fundamentals that are imparted by the shared death experience:
Fundamental #1: Death is not an end, but a doorway to a new beginning. Individual consciousness is not “snuffed out” upon death; rather it is transformed, elevating to what we often refer to as the spiritual. Fundamental #2: No one dies alone. We are greeted by loved ones on the other side. Fundamental #3: Loving relationships continue. Death ends a human life but it does not end the bonds we have with one another.
“We are excited to invite anyone who is interested in learning more about the Shared Death Experience to join us for this free event,” said Peters. “We are grateful to Sarah Kerr for joining me in this meaningful and powerful conversation that impacts every one of us in one way or another.”
Peters, M.Ed, MA, MFT, is a licensed psychotherapist, founder of the Shared Crossing Project, director of the the Shared Crossing Research Initiative, and author of At Heaven’s Door. Peters has developed a series of leading-edge programs that focus on preparation for a conscious, connecting, and loving end-of-life experience, and invite exploration of the topic of life after death. Peters and his research team collect and study extraordinary end-of-life experiences (shared crossings). He is recognized by many as the world’s leading authority on the shared death experience (SDE), having developed the first research-based typology of this phenomenon.
Kerr is an experienced death doula, ritual healing practitioner and founder of The Centre for Sacred Deathcare. Kerr will discuss how SDEs inform her work with families, and why end-of-life practitioners and lay people alike need to know about the SDE.?
