The Story
Paul is a man with genetic vulnerabilities that made him prone to strokes and health issues. His NDEs were triggered by the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, when his house collapsed on him, and a recent COVID hospitalization where he lost 60 pounds due to poor care for his Lyme disease. During the earthquake, time stopped and dilated, allowing him to question his fear of dying; he felt the land speaking to him. In the hospital, he separated from his body and found himself in Africa, plunging his arms into the soil and sending his life force there. He also described spiritual connections like entering a redwood forest and feeling welcomed, and closeness to his mother's death. After these experiences, Paul gained a liberated spirit, a deeper bond with nature, and a focus on life's emergence and birth over death. He shifted his life toward advocating for global connections, especially in Africa, and viewing death as a transition to new beginnings.
