Yoga Vacation Program
March 10 — 15, 2026

Near Death Experience (NDE) Symposium

Anita Moorjani, Raymond Moody, Eben Alexander, Karen Newell, William Peters, and Monica Willliams

Join us for an unforgettable journey with the most well-known presenters in the NDE community — one that may forever change the way you understand life, death, and what lies beyond.

Step into a profound exploration of consciousness, the afterlife, and the mysteries that unfold beyond physical existence. This groundbreaking symposium brings together leading experts, researchers, and experiencers to share extraordinary insights from Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), Shared Death Experiences (SDEs), and the science of consciousness beyond death.

Through firsthand accounts, cutting-edge research, and spiritual perspectives, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of what happens at the threshold between life and the beyond—and how these revelations can transform the way we live today.

Throughout this immersive experience, we will explore key themes that offer both scientific and spiritual perspectives on the nature of consciousness, the journey beyond physical life, and the profound wisdom gained from those who have glimpsed the other side:

Near-Death Experiences (NDEs): Explore powerful firsthand journeys beyond the physical body, where individuals encounter realms of unconditional love, profound healing, and expanded consciousness. These experiences challenge conventional views of life, death, and our true nature.

Shared Death Experiences (SDEs): Discover the remarkable phenomenon where caregivers and loved ones report witnessing or even accompanying the dying into realms beyond this world. Learn how SDEs offer deep spiritual and psychological benefits, transforming our approach to end-of-life care.

The Science of Consciousness Beyond Death: Insights from research and personal experiences reveal how neuroscience, spirituality, and quantum physics intersect, challenging traditional perspectives on consciousness and survival beyond death.

Accessing the Spiritual Realm: After-death communications and other profound spiritual encounters are far more common than often believed. Learn how to cultivate a connection to higher realms and trust your own transformative spiritual experiences.

The Life Review & Personal Growth: Many NDErs describe a life review where past actions are experienced from the perspective of others, revealing the golden rule as an intrinsic part of the universe. Gain tools to integrate this wisdom into your life with greater compassion, purpose, and understanding.

Offered as 6 satsangs and 9 workshops (subject to change).

Dr. Eben Alexander III, was an academic neurosurgeon for over 25 years, including 15 years at the Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Children’s Hospital, and Harvard Medical School in Boston. He was once staunchly committed to the materialist world view — the belief that the physical world is all that exists. His scientific belief system was altered by his 2008 transcendental near-death experience (NDE), an odyssey into another realm during a week-long coma. Despite a bleak medical prognosis, Dr. Alexander awoke to make an inexplicable return to full health. His medical case and recovery were validated in the peer-reviewed Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease. Since his NDE, Dr. Alexander has been reconciling his rich spiritual experience with quantum physics, cosmology and the philosophy of mind. Dr. Alexander speaks around the world to educate about the role that consciousness plays in wellness, healing and recovery.

A pioneering scientist and modern thought leader, Dr. Alexander has been featured in more than 400 media interviews including for ABC-TV’s Good Morning America and 20/20, The Dr. Oz Show, Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday, Larry King Now, Fox and Friends, Discovery Channel, Biography Channel and numerous international radio, digital and podcasts. His books are available in more than 40 countries: Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife, The Map of Heaven: How Science, Religion, and Ordinary People Are Proving the Afterlife, and Living in a Mindful Universe: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Heart of Consciousness, co-authored with Sacred Acoustics co-founder Karen Newell.
