NDE Support
Many near-death experiencers (NDErs) consider their NDE to be the most profound experience of their lives. Because of the unique nature of NDEs, finding a knowledgeable and helpful listener may present a challenge. Although a medical, mental health, or spiritual/religious professional is probably more likely to be helpful, professional preparation is not a guarantee of suitability. A family member/friend might be supportive; on the other hand, if they feel threatened by or judgmental about the NDE itself or the changes it inspires in the NDEr, they might have difficulty listening with an open and supportive attitude.

IANDS Research and Support
IANDS groups can be found in communities around the world. Our local groups meet in person (when appropriate) to talk about and share near-death experiences, questions about death and dying, and the latest information from NDE research. IANDS Affiliated Groups serve near-death experiencers by providing understanding and information to those who have had such experiences. Groups also offer education and discussion of near-death and related experiences to the general public in a supportive, accessible setting. IANDS Groups allow freedom of interpretation of NDEs and similar experiences and do not proselytize any single point of view. They provide support to NDErs, not therapy. While fostering the free exchange of ideas through open discussion, the Group safeguards the stability of its participants by refraining from demonstrating or teaching techniques which are known to be emotionally hazardous for some individuals.
Crystal Faith Miller facilitate two monthly groups that are both conducted in a hybrid format, meaning anyone can attend either session either in person or from anywhere in the world. Please feel free to join her on the 1st Sunday of every month through her Omaha, Nebraska hybrid group or on the 3rd Sunday of every month through her RGV, Texas hybrid group.
