About this ebook

The success of mega-bestsellers like Proof of Heaven and 90 Minutes in Heaven shows that readers hunger for insight into what happens when we die. But can we know? Are there those who’ve been “there” and back? Echo Bodine is beloved for her down-to-earth wisdom on the decidedly out of this world. In these pages, she shares her lifetime of learning — and personal experience — about the above questions. She offers practical tools for being with the dying (including what not to do), for grieving (through the poignant experience of her own mother’s passing as Bodine was writing this book), and for cultivating clear and inspiring communication with the deceased. Learning what happens when we die turns out to be inspiring, reassuring, and profoundly life changing.

Ratings and reviews

Wow! This book has to be the most profound and beautiful read I have ever encountered. Truly something that I needed to read at this time in my life, as I go through my journey and the process of grieving and healing. I feel both at peace and enlightened by the knowledge of what my loved ones go through who have passed and those who are still here but who I will have to say goodbye to one day. I also feel an ease with not fearing my own death or what will happen when my time comes. The author is an amazing woman, who has given me a perspective and insight that I'm not sure anybody else could have. Absolutely incredible this book is - something I can and will read more times to come, and certainly something I feel my family and loved ones will benefit from, so now I will take it upon myself to share this beautiful wisdom.

Brilliant book. I learned so much plus it has helped me with my grief at the loss of my Mam, partner & even pet dog. Its a must read 👌

I can definitely relate to at least 90% of what Echo describes in this book. Also answered some questions for me. Would recommend.
