During her late twenties, Viv, who was raised in the Catholic Church, questioned her spiritual beliefs, and decided to lay her practices to rest in favor of a focus on more practical values. The day she declared to her husband that she no longer believed in a god or in other realms was the day her young son had his accident. During his recovery, she had an experience where she was told her son would survive, contrary to what the doctors were saying. The boy later related what she came to realize was his own near-death experience (NDE), including details he could not have known at the time, and these events changed her.
About Vivienne
Vivienne Somers heralds from rural New South Wales, Australia and her childhood was steeped in unexplained phenomena. Her home was on land where a 19th century Irish convict uprising left many dead, and was known to locals as the location of frequent unusual events. Even some of Viv’s friends who had unexplained encounters in her home refused to return.

For over forty years, Viv has worked in the film industry both in Australia and the United States, as a makeup artist and producer. Her now strong interest in spirituality has led to an ongoing search for empirical evidence of the survival of consciousness and a quest to find ways to have these experiences through different living practices that can emulate the NDE.
