Near-Death Experiences and Non-Human Intelligence Sharing Group

This group is a safe space to share, learn, and explore the transformative experience of encountering galactic beings. IANDS groups are a safe place to talk and share openly about one’s spiritually transformative experience with like-minded people. We invite you to share, learn, and grow with us. Everyone is welcome!

Explore the possible connection between spiritually transformative experiences like NDEs and encountering non-human beings.

This sharing group is for everyone interested in the overlap between spirituality, NDEs, Non-human encounters. It is a safe space where like-minded people can share their experiences and explore these connections. Just as NDEs come with a variety of aftereffects, UAP/NHI experiences are also accompanied by similar aftereffects, like heightened awareness of the unity of all life, greater compassion for all beings, and an increased interest in metaphysics and spirituality.

Some experiencers report encountering beings they describe as non-human intelligence (NHI). This sharing group is for everyone interested in these experiences. It is a safe space where like-minded people can share their experiences and explore these connections.

This is a sharing group that welcomes everyone.

Soul Awakening Through Crises

Join Erica Tait, LCSW, LCADC, for Soul Awakening Through Crises, where she shows how personal and global upheaval can become a doorway to deeper self-awareness and spiritual growth. Drawing on her Near-Death Experience and years of psychotherapy, Erica offers practical guidance to navigate life’s challenges with clarity, courage, and heart-centered intention.

In times of personal upheaval and global uncertainty, many people find themselves asking deeper questions: Why is this happening? What is falling away? Who am I becoming? Soul Awakening Through Crises explores the profound idea that crisis is not merely disruption, it is initiation. Drawing from Erica’s Near-Death Experience and over a decade of spiritual teaching and working in the field of psychotherapy, this presentation offers a powerful reframing of suffering as a catalyst for spiritual awakening.

Together, we will explore how crisis functions as a threshold. Personal identity collapse can reveal a more authentic self. Physical illness or trauma can awaken a deeper reverence for life. Relationship breakdown can open the heart in unexpected ways. Even collective upheaval can press us toward greater unity and shared humanity. When viewed through the lens of NDE wisdom, crisis is not random chaos, it is often a stripping away of illusion so that something truer can emerge.

Attendees will leave with a grounded framework for understanding their own life challenges in a new way. Instead of viewing crisis as something to escape or fix as quickly as possible, participants will learn how to recognize it as an invitation into greater authenticity, compassion, and meaning. This event offers practical insights into navigating uncertainty with awareness, reducing fear, and responding to change with intention rather than reactivity.

More than inspiration, this presentation provides orientation. In a world marked by rapid transformation, it offers language, structure, and spiritual context for what many are already experiencing. Participants will walk away with a deeper sense of resilience, clarity about their evolving identity, and renewed purpose in both their personal lives and their contribution to the collective. Whether you are currently in the midst of change or simply sensing that something deeper is unfolding, this talk will help you understand how awakening often begins exactly where things seem to be falling apart.

Step Into Your Power

Join Crystal Faith Miller as she shares the lessons of her NDE, showing how to quiet the mind, reclaim your power, and live fully in the present. You’ll discover practical ways to tune into your Higher Self, strengthen intuition, and co-create from a heart-centered, grounded place—transforming spiritual insight into everyday life.

Crystal Faith will share what her near-death experience taught her about true divine power and what becomes possible when you learn how to remain in the moment of now. This talk is for the person who feels like their mind never stops, who can sense there is “more,” and who is tired of living from pressure, fear, and distraction. You will be guided back into the inner space where clarity lives, where your intuition is loud enough to hear, and where co-creating your life becomes natural instead of forced.

You will learn how to reclaim your power back from mind clutter and distractions by anchoring into gratitude and joy. When you stop leaking energy into constant thinking, future-tripping, or replaying the past, something opens. Your nervous system softens. Your heart becomes the compass again. And your ability to co-create shifts from “trying to make things happen” into a grounded, abundant way of being.

Crystal will also teach you how to become the observer of your life rather than the one being thrown around by it. When you recognize that everything is happening for you and not to you, you can surrender into the experience instead of resisting it. From that place, you begin using the power of love to co-create your truest desires, not as a concept, but as a lived practice you can return to again and again.

You’ll leave with practical ways to tune into your Higher Self, strengthen intuition, and begin healing mind, body, and soul. This includes real, tangible steps you can apply immediately, plus stories and insights from Crystal’s experience that bring language to what many people feel but cannot explain. If you’ve been craving a deeper connection to divine guidance, a clearer sense of direction, and permission to live in your most abundant life, this talk will meet you right where you are and help you remember what you already are.

Crystal Faith Miller is a near-death experiencer, hypnotherapist, and spiritual teacher who has spent decades studying near-death studies, metaphysics, and consciousness after her own life-altering NDE. With an analytical mind and a heart-led approach, she helps people return to the moment of now, strengthen intuition, and reconnect with their Higher Self for real-life guidance, healing, and clarity.

Crystal’s work and story have been featured across podcasts and film, including GAIA and Coast to Coast AM.

It’s Time To Remember

Bill Letson’s near-death experience offers a grounded yet expansive look at consciousness beyond the body. Drawing from his own NDE, shared accounts from other experiencers, and ancient wisdom, Bill explores kindness, transformation, and the continuity of awareness. His story reminds us that we are all on the same journey—and that growth, understanding, and transcendence unfold when we are ready.

This presentation brings together Bill Letson’s near-death experience, the accounts of other NDEs, ancient wisdom teachings, and the hidden messages present all around us. Together, these elements form a larger picture—pieces of a cosmic puzzle waiting to be assembled. These are meaningful times, as the veil continues to lift and the “time of secrets” comes to an end.

Near-death experiencers have an important role in what is unfolding. Through their experiences, ordinary people remind us that we are all on the same journey and that each of us is equally important and deeply celebrated. Again and again, NDEs point to a universe that is unhurried, where time is an illusion and worry is unnecessary, and where every life has purpose and meaning.

In sharing his experience, Bill explores what NDEs reveal about consciousness, kindness, and transformation. His story reflects the understanding that there is a finish line—and that all of us are invited to transform and transcend when we are ready. Participants will come away with greater reassurance about life and death, a deeper sense of connection, and renewed trust in the larger unfolding of their own spiritual journey.

About Bill

Bill Letson is a retired fire captain and forester with 35 years of service. In 1994, while responding with his engine company to a severely ill patient in the Santa Barbara area, Bill was unknowingly exposed to the same illness. Within days, he was hospitalized and admitted to intensive care, where he spent the night critically dehydrated with failing vital signs.

During that night, Bill experienced a profound near-death experience. He separated from his physical body, traveled through a star-filled realm, and interacted with unusual, otherworldly beings. What followed were deeply blissful sensations of dying, encounters marked by intelligence and love, and a clear persistence of self—consciousness continuing without a physical body.

For the next 15 years, Bill quietly worked to understand what he had experienced. In 2010, recognizing the many similarities shared across NDE accounts, he began a more intentional exploration of the true nature of our earthly journey. His ongoing inquiry weaves together his near-death experience with shamanic ceremony (DMT), kundalini awakening, precession, and ancient knowledge.

Bill lives in Atascadero, California with Lia, his wife of 40 years. He enjoys time with their ranch cats, running dogs, and joyful egg-laying hens, and splits his time between California and Costa Rica.

NDEs and Parenting

When a near-death experience happens during motherhood, is its meaning only personal—or does it extend to the whole family? After surviving a fatal car crash as a young mother, Dr. Efrat Shokef discovered that spiritually transformative experiences carry invitations not just for the experiencer, but for partners, children, and community. In this webinar, she explores parent-child soul promises and why embracing the gifts of these experiences may be essential to fulfilling the sacred agreements we made with our children.

What invitation is embedded in near-death experiences that occur when we are already parents, whether during childbirth or when we are already parents of adult children? Is the invitation only for us as individuals? Or could the invitations embedded in near-death and other spiritually transformative experiences also be for more than just us? Our partner? Our children? Our family? Friends? Community? And humanity?
When Dr. Shokef was a young mother, she was involved in a car crash, was fatally injured, and had a profound near-death experience. In her webinar, she will explore how and why the invitations in near-death and spiritually transformative experiences are always for more than just the experiencers themselves.
She will discuss the invitation (distinct from an initiation), the social gaps that challenge our ability to fully embrace the gifts offered through our experiences, and communication with family, friends, and community about these experiences, especially with our children. She will share how one’s journey and individual experiences affect the family as a whole, explore parent-child soul promises, and her perspective on why embracing our near-death experience gifts is the key to fulfilling the soul promises we made not only to ourselves but also to our children.

About Efrat

Efrat Shokef, Ph.D., walks the knowing that everything is possible if we follow our intuition and say YES to the invitations the universe graciously offers us. Her journey took her from an academic path, through a car crash and a near-death experience, becoming absent as a mom, unable to care for her daughters. The reorganization of her physical body, together with the integration of her near-death experience, invited her to say multiple yes’s to the universe, and to explore the essence of motherhood and our sacred soul relationship with our children.
Today, Dr. Shokef guides parents in parenting from their essence and becoming the humans their children chose to come to. She is a shamanic energy healing practitioner working with children, teens, parents, and families, a mother to three spiritually aware, intuitive teens, who constantly invite her to grow, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend, a cosmic journeyer, and a writer. She holds a Ph.D. in social-organizational psychology, is a Fulbright Alumni, homeschools her daughters, raises four loving dogs, and loves nature, reading, cooking, and crafts.
Efrat is the author of two award-winning books: The Promise We Made: Three Universal Soul Promises We Made to Our Children, and UniverSoul Promises: Foundations for Creating the Conditions Our Children Need to Thrive in Times of Transformation.
