Natasha Black on Her Near-Death Experience, Divine Mission & the Healing Power of Remembering Who You Are
24 Plays4 months ago
On this episode of the Journey Mindfulness Podcast James interview Natasha J. Black, a quantum healer, teacher, and spiritual guide dedicated to helping others connect to their innate wisdom, sovereignty, and spiritual gifts, and of course THE MAIN THING- LOVE. Natasha's message is one of HOPE.
Her journey began at the age of seven after a near-death experience (NDE) that profoundly shaped her understanding of life, faith, and existence. During this experience where she died for 7 minutes, Natasha gained a deep awareness of humanity's divine purpose and the boundless potential within each of us. She returned not to proclaim herself as special, but to share the insights she gained—helping others understand why we are here and how to find their own unique connection to the divine.
She is also an Experiencer and courageously shares her experience with the Tall White Nordics (Pleiadians?). She has a wonderful presence and while we speak of esoteric phenomenon, she is very grounded and truly embodies integrity and wisdom.

Transformative Near-Death Experience
00:00:58
Speaker
Welcome Natasha and thank you so much for being here.
00:01:02
Speaker
Oh, thank you. And thank you so much for having me here and hello to the audience. And yeah, happy to be here. Yeah. So let's begin. What what happened on your journey when you were seven? I guess.
00:01:17
Speaker
i I usually give a bit of context around my story to the fact that I grew up in in a Christian world. So okay my mum's family were Seventh Day Adventists and that's how I grew up with those beliefs, you know, going to church and and all of those things.
00:01:40
Speaker
And, you know, then I'll skip to the near death experience um we are since that experience. And since then, it's just been a ah lifelong journey to uncover what truth is for me. um You know, what is the spiritual truth and, you know, just seeking basically. So, yeah, when I was seven, I was at my cousin's place in Sydney.
Asthma Attack and Urgent Hospital Drive
00:02:08
Speaker
And I also was born with asthma, so ah this particular day we were out in their backyard ah playing as we usually did. And, you know, I'm allergic to wattles and and pollens and things like that with my asthma, it triggers.
00:02:28
Speaker
So yeah, this particular day I was triggered by those, um you know, and sometimes physical activity can trigger it. So a combination of those things set me off with a asthma attack. And for a while I was breathing through it, breathing through it. And, you know, then I exited the fun ah with the other children and went upstairs to try and ah get my asthma so puff fun And I didn't bring it that day, so you know we were looking all around the house and anyone that's got asthma will understand that once you know that you don't have a relief, it you know kind of sets you into a panic, which obviously makes it worse.
00:03:17
Speaker
So, yeah, we kind of entered that phase of it. And, you know, in the background, my parents are talking about, okay, what's Plan B? You know, what what are we going to do? We were a little while from the hospital, so i couldn't find a puffer all around the house. My cousins didn't have asthma. So, but my aunt, who was still going around looking to see Do we have something by any chance? And so my parents made the call to go to the hospital. So and my dad drove me to the hospital. I was sitting in the passenger seat. My uncle was in the back directing ah directing us to the hospital. And you know obviously I'm in the front like trying to grasp for breath.
00:04:04
Speaker
I was becoming more laborsome. I was panicking and I just wanted to you know to cry and to to relieve the pain. and I could remember my dad just putting his hand on my back trying to keep me calm.
Near-Death Experience and Out-of-Body Observations
00:04:19
Speaker
and so you know I was trying the best that I could and then it just got to a point where I just i i couldn't anymore. But at that point, I remember I stopped feeling The pain of it, it was just like, oh, I'm just tired. I just felt this overwhelming. I just need to put my head down like I'm just sleepy. And I send that to my dad. I just need to put my head down in the middle central console of the car and he's like, no, don't stay awake. You know, stay with me. And he's yelling at me in the car at the top of his voice. And, um,
00:04:55
Speaker
And I couldn't fight it, so I closed my eyes, um but my dad said, you know, my he looked over and my eyes rolled back and, you know, my lips were blue. And so he decided to, do you want me to pause? Did you have a question to ask or you want me to keep going? Yeah, you're doing well. Yeah.
00:05:16
Speaker
Okay, cool. So my dad made a you know split decision to um make a bit of a detour because we were losing time. So my uncle said or they either he either said or they saw that there was a correctional facility.
00:05:36
Speaker
really close to where we were at the time. And so they swerved around, made a detour it to this correctional facility. My dad like, you know, screams out the front. ah
00:05:51
Speaker
and the gates and and stops and says, you know, does anybody know CPR? And so one of the inmates said, you know, I know CPR and so he was allowed to actually come in the car with us and he was permitted to come in the car with us and perform CPR.
00:06:07
Speaker
Uh, until we got to the ambulance station, which is when they took over and then defib, scream me to the hospital, you know, yeah and then, and then that's that. So that's that, that part of the story. Uh, and then, you know, at the hospital, that's when, you know, I kind of went above my body and, and saw everything happening from above. And yeah, so yeah, do you have a question?
00:06:34
Speaker
Yeah, I'm just curious to know like what what that was like. you know So you you get into the hospital, is is that the point where you um become conscious again and you realize you're looking down on your body or what happened?
00:06:51
Speaker
Yeah, so um i the last thing I remembered was putting my head down in the centre console of the car. That was that was it for me. um And when my dad was screaming, I could hear his voice faintly, so it was very distant. um And I was just kind of fading away.
00:07:13
Speaker
and then yeah And then the next thing I remember was my um mike consciousness floating above my body in the emergency room where they were trying to revive me. There was doctors and nurses everywhere. It was it was like I was watching a movie from above.
00:07:34
Speaker
I could see how many people were there, I could hear the conversations, you know, I could feel the emotions in the room, like how they were feeling. It was like a professional panic, I call it. um And at one stage, and but I was unattached to, I knew that I was I had died at that point. I knew that was the truth, but I was unattached to... It was like I was watching um the Avatar with me, but I wasn't attached to it. I knew it was me, but um the fact that I had died, it wasn't upsetting me. I didn't have any emotion. It was just like, oh, you know, just like watching a movie, as I explained.
00:08:19
Speaker
um But during that time at one stage, the doctor had come out into the hallway to speak to my dad. And he said, ah it's not looking great. I don't think she's going to make it. And if she does, she's probably going to have brain damage, you know, she's going to be impaired. So, you know, I heard that whole conversation and I recounted that to my dad um once I had ah come back into my body. And he is like the biggest skeptic ever.
00:08:57
Speaker
family Which I kind of appreciate because sometimes I think healthy skepticism is good. Yeah. but And sometimes people are sceptic because they don't know what to feel about it. They don't understand.
00:09:13
Speaker
and how to place it and you know, I understand that. So he was looking at me and I was recounting every word that the doctor said to him in the hallway. And he said, how could you have not known that? There's, there's absolutely. And I told him, you know,
00:09:30
Speaker
I heard it. Like I know what was happening. I was watching from above and he is still to this day is like, I believe you. I get what you're saying, but I just don't know how that's possible. or I don't know what to think about it. You know? Yeah. Yeah. So, um.
00:09:50
Speaker
That was that part of it that I remember, that the part when I was entering, I guess that space was, it's kind of a separated ah piece of it.
Spiritual Journey and Encounter with Beings
00:10:04
Speaker
I remember
00:10:08
Speaker
ah being in the in the backyard of my cousin's place. And there was like a tunnel um where all these beings were kind of lining this path for me down in their backyard. And they were like demons and and monsters. i don't you know I think it may have been my subconscious, but I don't know. I don't know what that is to this day. But all I could see was
00:10:37
Speaker
this path um and me standing at the start of the path and knowing that I had to walk through because I could see just a pin of light. and I knew that I wanted to walk towards that pin of light, but all these demons were trying to grab at me on the way. Anyway, I'm like escaping them you know one by one, but the more I was walking the further away they got. So um then I was able to walk to the light, the light got brighter. And then you were by yourself walking towards the the light. Okay.
00:11:12
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. And it was like a ah magnetic pull. You know, I just knew that I had to walk to there. um Something was calling me there. And yeah, once I got into the light, then I entered the famous, you know, unconditionally loving space, um pure light and consciousness that everybody talks about. I mean,
00:11:36
Speaker
I've listened to hundreds of NDEs. I find other people's stories just as fascinating. um Just what they experience, you know, it helps, it helped me actually along my journey to place my experience and understand it. So thank you for the work that you do because people like you are able to help us put the pieces of the puzzle together as well. So, you know, we we need to kind of um process all this information and hearing other people's stories really does help. So again,
00:12:15
Speaker
Yeah, so then I was in this space and straight away I just thought oh I'm home like this is This is incredible. I'm home. Like this feels like the most natural thing and place ever to exist. Um, and you know, it was just this, yeah, just this state of pure consciousness. Uh, there's no judgment. There's no emotion. Sorry. If you have a question, please. yeah i was just say you
00:12:47
Speaker
I remember hearing you tell the story before it's ah like you didn't have that attachment to the body into this physical world. Like if you felt completely comfortable where you were at that moment.
00:13:01
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, completely comfortable. It was just like, yeah, this, this is the most natural thing place to be more than, you know, back in my body with my family and everything that you think that feels familiar. The familiarity is actually.
00:13:20
Speaker
in this realm yeah um where I believe we we begin from. So.
Integration of Spiritual Experiences
00:13:27
Speaker
I think a lot of people struggle with that is when you are in that space, you know you with we think it's the worst thing in the world to be torn apart you know or how we might view it from our loved ones and friends and in in this world. And yet there's this other home that's, you know, filled with love. And it's it's not quite that there's this, in a sense, illusion that exists. Yeah, for sure. And, uh, you know, I'm very careful as well to express this. There's always, uh, follow up things that I will say, because I understand that the, grief journey and, you know, this human experience is still real, like,
00:14:17
Speaker
On the macro level, it's not, but... on the micro level it is and we we still miss loved ones and we still have those feelings of like, but they're not here physically, you know, and even people may understand that I know that they're still here. I know that they're just in the next room and in another realm, but I want them here with me physically. i mean You know, I'm very, um, I'm very sensitive to, to sharing that information as well, because I don't want to
00:14:50
Speaker
be the kind of spiritual person that discounts you know though the human experience because it's all of it. you know It's not just these realms that are real, it's all of it together and I think that's our human journey is to find a way to integrate everything into into the One and not judge one against the other. It's like, how can we have it all exist at the same time? Because in that realm that most people go to, it is everything existing in the one. So, you know, I think the human experience is to kind of remit learn and remember how to kind of go back to that state or just how to accept everything as one. So, yeah.
00:15:39
Speaker
So i mean you just use the word remember, but like was it when you got there, was it instant remembering of kind of who and what you are?
00:15:50
Speaker
Yeah, like immediate. It was immediate. And that's my experience. I i have listened to some where there's confusion and things like that. So obviously there's intricacies in you know each person's experience. But yes, for me, and I know many others, it's like an instant remembering of Oh, I'm pure consciousness. I'm pure love. I am a creator and I know that's controversial to some religious folk. And, you know, I don't mean to ah offend anyone, but, you know, I'm here just sharing what I experienced and what I know ah to be true. And I think if we all have open discussions, we can kind of go on this truth journey together.
00:16:36
Speaker
But yeah, it's an instant remembering you know that you can create within a second, like your thoughts are literally creating form, like whatever you think is being created. um You know, it's like you know everything. um So everything exists at the same time. So yeah, it's a very interesting state to experience. And part of my journey now,
00:17:05
Speaker
is to show people how they can experience that without dying. Yes. But before you get into that, yes how did, was there a decision that you had to make to come back or how did that play out? Yeah. Sorry. Sometimes these conversations can go on like, you know, it's kind of split because there's so many layers and, and yeah, so we do get off track.
00:17:36
Speaker
like Thank you for calling me back on, thinking yeah I can't go home. This is, this is, you know, this is my home. And at that time, I remember these It was like a collective set of voices that said to me, you can't. You can't go home back there. Sorry, you can't stay here. ah You have to go back. And I was like, no, are you kidding? Like, no, I don't want to go back. I can't. This is this is amazing. I want to stay here.
00:18:13
Speaker
And I said, no, you have to because you have a big mission and you have a lot of people to help um back there. And even though that was said to me in that way, I still remember feeling like I had a choice. If I really wanted to push back, I could have.
00:18:36
Speaker
And so I remember feeling that I knew that and but once I had heard that I had a mission and I had a purpose for my life and I was going to help a lot of people.
00:18:53
Speaker
It was like I went, okay, all right, that's fine. If I've got a purpose, then I'm happy to go back. And then, and then that was it. It was literally, I was back in my body. Um, and then that was that. And then since, you know, I kind of woke up back in my body when and I was a little girl, I was growing up. All I wanted to do, all I used to say to people is I just want to help people. really I don't know what I want to do, but I want to help people.
00:19:20
Speaker
And so I used to go through all these professions growing up. you know You're at school and yeah people are saying, what do you want to be when you grow up? It's like I explored being a nurse. I explored being a doctor, a physio, ah in any professions that would help people. um But yeah, now I understand that you know this is my way of helping people. And um you know I also came out of the experience uh, heavily questioning the religion that I was brought up in.
Guides and Mission Realization
00:19:52
Speaker
What, what would you say, do you know who the voices were or what the voice was that you were communicating with in your experiments? Yeah, I have, I feel like the, the state that I was in was
00:20:13
Speaker
that pure presence which I call God, um the all-knowing, all-existing, you know, everything is everywhere. But the voices I believe were my guides, you know, and I know we have multiple guides through our life, um but specific ones that kind of help us remember our mission.
00:20:36
Speaker
And I think because of the mission, the tie to the mission, I feel and I've explored for years now, ah my relationship with the Palladians. And so I believe that the collective voices were my guides, the Palladians.
00:20:56
Speaker
um which I, you know, had come from before here. I think all of us have come from different places, you know, before I think I'm special. um So yeah, I believe it was them. ah And yeah, it's it's hard to explain why I feel like that. It's just my exploration and my journey into remembering and hearing other people's stories has helped me together.
00:21:25
Speaker
could be part of your, your gift, you know, the, uh, is that, uh, clairvoyance? Is that like knowing? Yeah. Yeah. You know, for you to know, yeah yeah, you just get full body resonance, um, then multiple backed up by multiple synchronicities and, and all of this, but you know, even. I always say to like, it doesn't matter who it was. It's just really about.
00:21:57
Speaker
out grounding what it is I'm here to do. So it doesn't matter who it was or or what happened then. It's interesting and I love it, but also grounding that into, okay, well, what is the main thing? The main thing for me is to share messages of love and unity and, you know, what is on the other side and who God really is. So yeah, I like that. I love that you said that.
00:22:21
Speaker
There is ah and one of my episodes, it's titled, What is the main thing? And it's love, right? ah And integrating that. ah And the Palladians do, you know, it can be sort of sensational to kind of to learn about them. But they do have, they they work with a lot of healers and helpers. It's one of their reputations.
00:22:47
Speaker
Yeah, for sure. ah So yeah, it's been a fun journey to explore and certainly one that's out there and one that I've gaslit myself so many times. Sure, it's like, oh, is this, am I making all this up? Like, is this... You know, is this real? But even to that, i I still say to myself, well, even if it's not real, it's still helping me ground important information, which is bringing it back to love. So, yeah, yeah know yeah that that is the main thing. Now, did anyone try to talk you out of kind of your experience or were you able, you know, at such a young age to like really hold on to that? I mean, it sounds like maybe you did, but
00:23:36
Speaker
Yeah, it's so when I, it's a lot to process as ah a child, you know, that experience and what's going on in your brain. And I think I came out having a lot of questions, but it was like, I had to kind of go on that journey silently alongside still going to church and still having those, uh, uh, practices at home.
00:24:05
Speaker
I just kind of had to quietly, silent um silently go on that journey. Every time I would ask certain questions um and it's no one's fault, they just couldn't be answered where it would satisfy my soul. It's like, it's still something doesn't feel right with that answer or it was met with stop asking so many questions, you just have to have faith.
00:24:32
Speaker
And, you know, again, that's no one's fault. It's just, that's the belief system. That's like, you just have to have faith. So I totally get that.
Silent Spiritual Journey and Influences
00:24:42
Speaker
um And so, you know, I kind of just, yeah, ah yeah I just for for many, many any years I couldn't satisfy that thirst of um asking these questions and having them answered. And i then when I got older, I used to say, but I need to have these questions answered to have faith. I can't.
00:25:05
Speaker
go on because of what I experienced. um But to my near-death experience, and maybe it's something to do with um how I was brought up with the religion, I didn't really share the experience for a long time because I didn't know what to think about it. You know, I knew that I experienced it. And then, to be honest, it was about 10 years ago. I had shared it here and there, but not It wasn't really common knowledge to people around me um of my actual experience. They knew that I died of an asthma attack, but they didn't know what my full experience was because I hadn't really explained it to that depth because I, again, I didn't know what to think about it. It was about 10 years ago, a friend of mine
00:25:56
Speaker
At the time, she pointed me to Anita Morjani and she said, have you heard of Anita Morjani? And I said, no. And she goes, oh, she's incredible. She shares about her near-death experience.
00:26:11
Speaker
And so I listened to her and I was like, wow, like this is everything that I experienced. Yes, I agree with that. Yes, yes, yes. And then that was it. It was like, then I just went on a quest of listening to so many stories.
00:26:29
Speaker
these And you know there wasn't um as many as what there are now stories out there, but I still found them. And it just gave me more context to my spiritual path, yeah yeah journey and Yeah, it's it's been really fun. Um, but yeah, again, like hearing these stories of other people, it just helped me understand what it was that I experienced. Um, and place it in, Oh, yeah. Okay. Now I'm understanding like who God is and what my experience is. And yeah. Now, were you already, were you in the helping profession at that time or healing or.
00:27:13
Speaker
Yeah, I was doing Massage. I was doing ah healing at the time and definitely ah coaching to some capacity. ah But I, at that time, I was a stay at home mum at the time, really. So I was actually in a network marketing company at the time. This was before I started because I went into Massage when I was a little bit younger.
00:27:40
Speaker
after I left school and went away from it and then I came back to it once my kids were in ah daycare. And so I was a stay-at-home mum at the time when I came across Anita Maljani and then, you know, that really propelled my and journey forward more. Yeah. Now did you have, was it another experience or when you were pregnant or am I recalling that correctly?
Abduction Experience During Pregnancy
00:28:07
Speaker
Yeah, so when I was pregnant with my second child, I had the words loaded, but I had an abduction experience. So, you know, I don't like to necessarily use that term, but it's the only term that I kind of have to to give context.
00:28:30
Speaker
But I was asleep in my room next to my husband. And I remember being woken up. My eyes were kind of shut. And so I knew that I was awake. It's like if you're meditating and you you know you're awake, but your eyes are shut. It was like that feeling. And I couldn't open them. It was like, a but it wasn't forced clothes. It's difficult to explain. And I knew that I was definitely awake and there was this magnetic bright light shining in my room and the first thing I knew was oh my husband's going to wake up and like what is this because I knew straight away all at the same time that
00:29:20
Speaker
I knew what it was. And before this, I had never listened to any abduction stories. It wasn't something that I was into at all. I used to think, no, this is conspiracy stuff. So I had never delved into any of it. I had no idea. But I knew at this point what it was. This was an abduction and I was going to be taken.
00:29:45
Speaker
And I was saying in my mind, no, no, no, like i don't I don't want to go. And these calm, collective voices were saying, yes, it's OK. We're not here to hurt you. um It's fine. like You'll be safe. And again, I was thinking, like but my husband's right next to me. What if I'm gone and he wakes up and I'm not there? And you know so I was going through that frame of mind And in the next moment, I was in this ship, in this place, and I was on this metal, it was like a very cold sterile room. It was, it felt nice, but it was just like sterile. It wasn't, it was nothing, no nice furniture around. And so but I was on this cold metal bed,
00:30:38
Speaker
There were cubicles all around me and I knew there were other people, but i I didn't see them. I just, the next thing I knew I was laying down on this bed. And I saw that at the end of the bed to the right, there was about seven, i seven beings around me.
00:31:01
Speaker
And now I know to explain them as, um, tall, white Nordic looking beings. Um, they were very much humanoids, you know, so it looked like us, but just very pure, you know, just that we're wearing white. Like coats. Um, and some of them had like a clipboard. Are these considerably Indians? I think so. Yeah. That's what I believe now. Yep. So, but yeah, I i never knew anything.
00:31:35
Speaker
anything about anything. And so years later, when a friend of ours, um he was very much into it UFOs and aliens. And I said, yeah.
00:31:50
Speaker
I had this dream once and a and he's like, well, that's a very common abduction story. I'm like, what? so And then I was like, oh, was it real or was it not? So anyway, I'm on this bed and these it was like if you go to hospital and there's students, you know, at the end and they're taking notes, so it was like that. But there was a couple that were next to me and they said, we're just going to insert this device or this, this um like, do some kind of a procedure. And it was this long metal ah syringe. Okay, that would have been terrifying.
00:32:32
Speaker
Yeah, I wasn't scared. It was like the the most scariest part was when I was in the bed and I was saying, no, no, no, I didn't want to be taken up. But it was like, as soon as I was there, I was comforted. They were speaking to me telepathically, like, you're safe, you know, and I felt safe, like it didn't feel wrong. And so with this cold metal syringe, I don't remember feeling any anxiety around it, but they did say, it's not going going to hurt, but it's going to feel uncomfortable. And so they inserted it into my belly button. And it was cold as and it was uncomfortable. It was like if you kind of push the inside of your belly button and yeah, it just felt really uncomfortable. And ah then they said that was it. It was very quick. And then they gave me some kind of headphones and they said it was classical music. And I know this sounds so crazy. It
00:33:32
Speaker
We're we now the rabbit hole. It's so funny. I listened to myself sometimes and I'm like, Oh my God, this is just like, you know, anyway. So they gave me these headphones and they said, just listen to this music and, you know, wait for the integration. So it was like, yeah, this, this was an integrated experience. I guess just like if you do sound healing and you kind of integrate that.
00:33:57
Speaker
And they said, you'll be here for about half an hour and then you can go. So that was it. They left. um I didn't see them again after the music. Natasha, what was it? Did they? um Because I'll share with you something else that ah another experiencer just shared. um Like I had um her name was Jacqueline Smith, and she said that when she when her mom was pregnant,
00:34:29
Speaker
If I'm saying this correctly, she was injected with DNA. Um, and so she considers herself a hybrid, but they were, um, there was like something to do with DNA with the injection. But what do you know what they were doing? What was that about? Yeah. So on my journey, I've channeled and journaled and
00:34:58
Speaker
gone into this myself to try and understand what was it. I've had, um, what do you call it? Um, regressions. I've had hypnotherapy to try and uncover what it was. And I was told that the device that was implanted was it's like a capsule. So it's like a.
00:35:22
Speaker
You can't really pick it up physically, but you know, it's on a different freak frequency. So it's this capsule that is in my body to help me remember certain things and awaken my DNA.
00:35:41
Speaker
So, whenever I'm ready for another integration, it's like there's a switch that goes on and it awakens more of my DNA to remember and stay on track, you know, remember my path, ah open up more of my gifts, you know, i help with um the healing and ascension of humanity. That's very interesting. That's ah kind of what Whitley Strieber describes.
00:36:07
Speaker
Okay. That's interesting. I've never heard of that. With his, uh, he, he's had some of his, uh, you know, I don't know, x-rayed or MRI, whatever they do. Um, but they've opened him up. And so he has, uh, I believe I'm saying that accurately, certain, certain gifts, but, uh, that's interesting. Did they find anything physical?
00:36:35
Speaker
Like, there was a like an implant in his ear, um but there was no incision. o um And then they they kind of went in and then it like dropped down and they ah kind of gave up trying to get it. And then I think he.
00:36:53
Speaker
I don't know. I think there's some other things too that I'm not fully versed in his story, but I just saw that. So it was interesting me to me when you said something about the implants and upgrading your DNA. that That is interesting to me. I'll have to listen to his story. What's his name again? Whitley Streber.
00:37:14
Speaker
Oh, okay. Yeah, and I love these confirmations. um So after this happened, i I didn't breathe a word of this to anyone, not even my husband. I may have said I had this you know really weird dream, and so it wasn't until my friend opened up and I was like, he was you know we were all quite open in the conversation, so I felt safe to share, yeah, I had this weird dream one night.
00:37:45
Speaker
And anyway, after that, he made me start thinking, oh, maybe I should listen to some abduction stories. And so I did, and I was like, whoa, we okay. And it wasn't until two years ago, I was listening to one podcast, I wish I could find it again, of this woman who her story was 98% the same as mine.
00:38:12
Speaker
The cold metal syringe, the implant, everything was like, and I couldn't believe it because even up to that point, I was like, yeah, it it was definitely it was definitely not a dream because the other part of the story is I woke up.
00:38:30
Speaker
physically in my bed and I felt my belly button and it felt like it had been tampered with. and Like it felt like something was inserted in there. So I knew that it was beyond a dream. It was definitely not just a dream, but I still didn't. Yeah, I still didn't quite believe it. There was a lot of There was a lot of this story that I thought, oh man, I can't share this. Like, this is so unreal. You know, it's just, who's going to believe me? And, you know, and the other part of me was like, well, why share it? I don't really see the point. But then you know listening to more of the stories and this other woman, I went,
00:39:14
Speaker
Okay, this is something, something definitely happened here. So I kind of started taking it a little bit more seriously, and then just noticing how my two experiences are kind of linked with my purpose and helping humanity heal. So it is linked. It's like every time I've had these experiences, as it's like a ah memory jolt, like ah you helping me remember and and stay on track.
00:39:44
Speaker
Well, I do I do regression work and. You know, at least the ones that I've encountered, usually they are have been more positive, you know, words, you know, kind of tidying things up or helping things heal in in this way or that or like or upgrading and, you know.
00:40:08
Speaker
allowing for, um I guess, more abilities, you know, yeah which are built in already, but just to come out ah maybe a little bit more enhanced.
Overcoming Fear and Embracing Purpose
00:40:20
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. And yeah, sorry, please go ahead. No, I was just going to say, um you know, I know it takes a lot of courage to share a story like that, but it's also in the way that I think NDEs, you know, near-death experiences help people look at death differently in their relationship ah with fear and death. Also, the experiencer stories are helpful too because a lot of times people, you know they withhold them, they inhibit them because they're they're afraid to talk about it. and yeah you know So it's also very helpful. It all goes back to the main thing too, right?
00:41:02
Speaker
Yeah, it it really does. And, you know, I i'm ah love playing in the esoterics and and all of that, but I am always careful to bring it into what's practical about this. I'm not just sharing esoterics just to be esoteric. You know, it's got to have some purpose and some practicality of like, why? Why is it? Why are we having these experiences? But Yeah, I think you're right. I think a lot more people will come out and share stories like, you know, abductions and ah kind of help us soften the walls of of the fear around this topic. And I think that's, you know, starting to happen now. We're starting to just go, OK, yeah, aliens are real, you know, and then
00:41:53
Speaker
You know, it's going to evolve in the next 20 years. um But it is, you know, i when you when everyone's been brought up in a world where the unseen realms are fake, you know, that there's a lot of conditioning here to break down until we're comfortable talking about these things. But, you know, big part of my journey to to to feel comfortable to sharing it. And I have to say, I'm not fully comfortable sharing with the people that I know, like all the people that know me. You know, I share openly on these podcasts because I think of most people will probably never watch these that I know. good But if they do, it's okay. It's like, you know, constantly.
00:42:42
Speaker
in journey of just letting go of of this, but I lost my train of thought there. But yeah, I think, you know, where we're going to be breaking down these walls.
00:42:55
Speaker
slowly and yeah, and going into ancient wisdom was a big part of my journey in sharing more of this comfortably because going into ancient wisdom and history has shown me that people were working with other beings. There was UFOs like all out in the open. Like it's not a fake thing. Okay. So we're, are we going into mystery schools here?
00:43:24
Speaker
Oh, yeah, we can wherever you want to go. Well, I mean, it's all interesting to me. um You know, obviously, you know, this podcast is called Journey Mindfulness. um And I love I really appreciate how you're talking about, you know, this is the era esoteric stuff. But really, the moment is here in the body, you know, in this physical world or this density. um But there is this sort of ancient, rich history that we in some ways have forgotten or we don't remember for various reasons. And, uh, you know, there's people like you that are, um, bringing it back really. And, uh, so yeah, we could go wherever you want with that. Yeah. I mean, I think it it's all linked, uh, it's, it's all linked. And so we can take a bit from his
00:44:23
Speaker
ju a bit from, you know, these other realms and a bit from this and a bit from that, everything is linked and will complete the full story and is completing the full story. um But, you know, humanity have to be open to hearing um more ah out of the box thinking.
00:44:42
Speaker
But, you know, I'm very careful to, to, you know, and I'm always here to say, and like, if I'm wrong, I will admit it tomorrow. Like, you know, we're all on the journey of seeking and finding the truth. But I have gone into.
00:44:58
Speaker
ancient mysteries in history and it's just fascinating with what they knew about themselves, about their ability, their, you know, telepathic communication, their abilities to, you know, use energy. And, you know, Jesus was a big, a big part of that journey. And, you know, for many years I had an aversion to Jesus or God, you know, but I've understood him now as I've gone on my journey that who he really was. um And it's my belief ah that he was just a being that came back to show us what we're capable of.
00:45:41
Speaker
um in essence and that we can do all these things we can perform miracles we can heal on that level we can show unconditional love and Through that we open up realms we can manifest we can you know unlock our DNA and know what we're what our human potential is so Yeah, it's been it's been such a fun journey and still is I'm still sinking every day um but I believe that you know, people like him were just to show us what we can do.
00:46:19
Speaker
who And that, you know, even himself said that he doesn't want to be worshiped. He's just showing us the way. It's not that he is the way, but it's not that we have to worship him or he's our savior. It's just that follow what he thought, follow how he lived, and we can also access those realms within us and beyond.
Mission to Guide Others
00:46:44
Speaker
So what, tell us about kind of what, what work you're doing with that.
00:46:50
Speaker
Yeah, so last year and the year before, I was sharing a lot of that ancient history or just touching on it. You know, I'm not i'm not your person like... um ah I'm trying to think, like Billy Carson or, you know, they remember facts and they're very good at remembering timelines and things like that. I go into all of that, but I remember the points that I need to just enough to kind of ah touch on it to show people
00:47:28
Speaker
that we're capable of more and then if they want more scholarly information, then I'll lead them in in that path and they can really study it, you know, on a scientific level. I love Greg Braden as well. He's ah really helped me understand who I am and go on this journey as well.
00:47:47
Speaker
So I touch on these people and what they've shown me to kind of draw a picture of who we are. um My main work is to show people what their infinite human potential is. So, you know, that's through spirituality, that's through ancient history, that's through channeling intuition, um healing how you can be a master of yourself, your emotions and your energy. So in essence that's what I share in the Mystery School and this year still doing that within the Mystery School membership but it's taking a
00:48:30
Speaker
oh
00:48:33
Speaker
I realized that I had to break it down a little bit further because sometimes these concepts can be so big and so overwhelming that people don't know where to start. yeah on yeah i'm kind of I realized that I'm going too big and like just need bite-sized chunks of information.
00:48:54
Speaker
which is hard because you get excited because there's so much to share and yeah. yeah And I think that's part of your gift too is is kind of what I've heard you you share our online is making it simple and you know, okay, you you mentioned timelines and how that could be overwhelming and breaking it down and you know, well, let's just choose a path. Yeah. Yeah. I want to,
00:49:22
Speaker
I want people to understand concepts and that's, I know what I'm the best at describing. It's not the actual information because I do forget, you know, intricate details. I don't retain information like that, but I understand concepts and I'm always trying to bring it to a practical level. And yeah, this year, uh,
00:49:47
Speaker
is sharing more of how people can have ah experiences like leaving your body. I've done that in meditation. So leaving your body and experiencing that oneness presence without having to die. So, you know, I'm kind of wanting to bridge more of that work and showing people like who God is or what is this presence or how can we connect to the truest part of ourself. How can we become a master of the self? um So kind of breaking down these experiences to showing other people. Or you can experience that too. It's not that I'm or the next person is special because we've had a near-death experience.
00:50:29
Speaker
We're just messengers coming back to show you and to explain like this is already something that you can access. It's just we have to find the way to do it. ah So, yeah, that's that's a big focus of my work. Well, you know, do you find that sharing your story? I mean, like for for me and I've had some experiences, too. So I I'm not afraid of death. I can I think say that pretty confidently. um yeah But it's, you know, so many people that i I've seen in my counseling practice, you know, a lot of people, they they live life in fear. And a lot of that fear too is, you know, to try to play it safe or, you know, there's this huge fear of death and rightfully so, right? Like, you know, you don't want to be
00:51:20
Speaker
you know, not sensitive to that. um But do you find that people that hear your story ah kind of buy in? Yeah. Um, I know that I have comforted people around me by sharing my story. Um, but sharing that the main thing they get from it is, Oh, they're not gone and wiped from everything. You know, they are still there. It's just, you know, and it's still, it's still hard to process death.
00:51:56
Speaker
in this realm, but they understand like, oh, they're not really gone. Like I can just speak to them and I can just, you know, I think part of the biggest message here too is that we have to and open our awareness to relationships, you know, and like we can have relationships with people on the other side. It's just redefining what that looks like.
00:52:22
Speaker
uh and going you know in in between realms and you can have that it's just um and it's not going to be the same but nothing ever is the same you know it's all yeah but i think opening that awareness and i've got a book coming out actually which um i was approached towards um i think the middle of last year to share my story it kind of came out of nowhere and all All of these people, it's a collaborative project, but all of these people sharing their stories for this purpose.
Changing Perspectives on Death
00:52:56
Speaker
It's to help redefine death and to help give hope to humanity um and to to help them not be afraid so much to ah die. And I understand it. um I would have to say sometimes i'm I get these thoughts of,
00:53:16
Speaker
dying in a certain way. It's weird. There's weird thoughts that come in my brain sometimes that terrifies me a little bit, but the actual process doesn't scare me because I know that we never die. And actually there's so many cultures and back in ancient times, they, it was, it was a privilege, you know, to go through this experience. It was like an initiation. So it's very interesting, you know, how we have a near death experience of her.
00:53:45
Speaker
to die. So, you know, it was very much celebrated. It's like, oh, your, your soul is now on the next um journey and the next step forward. Like this is so exciting. You know, that would still obviously grieve, but it was more of a celebrated thing. And there's some cultures today that still do that. It's like, because they understand that death is not the end. Their soul is tanking the next path on their journey. So it's, it's a celebration.
00:54:14
Speaker
There was a ah really um good book that I read when I was younger and I'd been exposed to meditation and reincarnation and and was living in Asia. And it was was called Good Life, Good Death by I think his name was Lama Rinpoche, if I'm pronouncing that correctly. Um, but it was just like, you know, death is not something to be feared. It's like to be embraced. And, you know, it's like this really beautiful thing you've been on this journey and and you're going home in a sense. And, you know, don't, don't be afraid. It's really, I think, you know, you sharing your message of your story and your experience is really a message of hope.
00:54:54
Speaker
oh Yeah, this is what everyone in the book wishes to to get it ah across as well. It's like it is a message of hope and you know hopefully it will just help someone grieving um or processing their own fear around death that It's just really to open our awareness to other things that are possible and that death isn't final. and you know it's I'm reminded in a lot of healing sessions I do too, that all my clients are reminded that is that when loved ones come through and have messages to share, you know we're saying they're still here. it's it's They're not gone. They're always here. It's just now,
00:55:41
Speaker
keep the relationship, but you just have to redefine the relationship with them. Um, they're still there. They can hear you. They can see, they can feel you. It's just, we have to learn a different way of communicating with them. So noticing signs or what's specific to them that will help you connect with them and keep that relationship alive between realms. Yeah. So I didn't know that about you. You're able to connect with spirit.
00:56:08
Speaker
Yeah, well, it it happened naturally. You know, I i was ah doing massage at the time. This was um probably about six years ago. And I remember having this. ah I was as deep in the.
00:56:23
Speaker
deep in the vibe, you know, of massage and healing. And someone's loved one came through and it was so powerful. And yeah, I had ah a friend who worked in the room opposite me and she's a medium. She's a psychic medium. She's ah just, yeah, a beautiful healer.
00:56:45
Speaker
And she, I said to her, I'm like, I think I literally just opened up my medium shift and she's like, probably. And I explained to her and she's like, yeah, like, you know, and so it just happened very organically. Uh, and now it happens all the time. Like people, whoever needs to pop through in healing sessions will pop through. Um, but yeah, that's, that's really incredible. Um, one of my friends needs to come through. They're coming through, but.
00:57:16
Speaker
One of my friends, Christy, she, um, she is a massage therapist and does acupressure and some other things. And she, when she started working on people, she started connecting with spirits. So, you know, people that were, uh, connected to the person she was working on would come through and she was spooked at first, but then she got comfortable with it. And it was really talented.
00:57:41
Speaker
Yeah, it's, and this is it, it's um when you're in the right, when the temperature's right, and I mean temperature is in your mind, your body, you know, everything's right, you will naturally go to those gifts, everyone has it.
Innate Spiritual Gifts and Healing
00:58:01
Speaker
um And this is something that the ancients knew too, is like, everyone can do these things, it's just,
00:58:08
Speaker
We've shut it off um ah for more than one reason, but this is part of my, I want people to understand that you have all of these gifts. You're intuitive, you're a psychic, you're a medium, you're a healer. Like everyone can do everything. That's our innate human potential, but not everyone will choose to do it. And that's okay. They don't have to. But the fact that
00:58:37
Speaker
that everyone can do it is a message that I do like to share. And I know that from experience. It's like I never wanted to do mediumship, but it's like, well, whoever comes through needs to come through for that person. And it's always so divine and just sharing beautiful messages of healing and and helps that person. So it really is as simple as just, it's just another tool of healing, I guess, and reaching someone's heart.
00:59:02
Speaker
Yeah. um Natasha, is the book that you were mentioning earlier, is it out yet? or It's coming out at the end of this month. so yeah It'll be available on Amazon.
00:59:17
Speaker
ah so yeah it's fair Very exciting. I, and yeah, it just kind of fell into my lap and it's, I can't really believe that it's happening. It's yeah, it is definitely exciting. Um, but I just hope that people get the message that we intended out of it. And it I just hope it helps comfort people around death. And did you, did you co-write another book or is this?
00:59:44
Speaker
No, this is the one. This is the one here, but um spirit's already told me that there's more coming. It's just, um this is this is the the the start of it. Yeah. So you're at the beginning of a long writing.
01:00:02
Speaker
Yeah, I think so. I don't know what that looks like. But you know, I do have some things to share. And I've always seen myself as writing a book, um but it never kind of came together. And I'd sit down and write certain things. And then I'd go, but I want to talk about that. And I want to talk about that. So it was never focused into one message. So, you know, and it's a reminder to for me and everyone is When it's right, you know, it will just happen. Like I didn't need to force anything. It's just like, it just happens.
Importance of Patience and Divine Timing
01:00:41
Speaker
You're inspired to write about what you're supposed to write about and you just have to be patient. Like I'm a double Capricorn. So it's like, when I have an idea in my mind and I want to, I want to do something, it's like, I'll just had a poll in that direction and go full steam ahead. But I have to learn how to surrender.
01:01:02
Speaker
And there and be patient and just take one step at a time sometimes time. Well, I think you said it, but all come all is in perfect time. Yeah. Yeah. It it really is. And, you know, if things.
01:01:17
Speaker
Spirit works how it wants to work. Spirit knows who needs to do what and is weaving this intricate ah ah what he call it tapestry and it's really We're just the instrument. So I've been reminded again that we just have to do what we need to do each day. Spirit will lead us, will guide me to you, to the next person. And you know, this tapestry is coming together and it's beyond what we can even see. So even if we think that it's not in the right time, it is, it's just, we can't see beyond our own reality. Yeah.
01:02:00
Speaker
yeah Well, I was very fortunate in one of the experiences I had, where I got a peek behind the veil. um And I think that's how I resonated with you. and i was You want to say that? Yeah, i was I was crossing a river on a ferry in Bangladesh. And the the river was very, um I mean, it was the ferries in Bangladesh are not exactly safe to begin with. When a storm came,
01:02:30
Speaker
and the boat started to rock and the boat was overcrowded so the women and children were in the inside of the ferry and the men were on the outside and then the boat just started to tip over you know like that and then eventually i'm like this this boat's gonna it's gonna sink and so we were taught to jump away from the boat because if it sank when you were on it like it's gonna suck you in so i was just ready to jump And which meant I was going to die because there was no way I was going to survive the the current in in everything so I was just trying to kind of determine where. um My body might be found so like my parents would have something to. You know Barry or whatever there be some kind of closure with that.
James' Near-Death Experience and Reflections
01:03:19
Speaker
And I just remember, you know, getting ready to time my jump, which meant that was it. And there was a moment where I just I was tremendously peaceful and it felt like time had stopped.
01:03:36
Speaker
you So there was like no more time, which is interesting because that's something people talk about. And I just remember being incredibly at peace. Just please tell my parents that I'm good. um I'm exactly where I was supposed to be. but And then I heard a voice just kind of shimmer in this vibration. So clear and so, you know.
01:04:01
Speaker
not loud, but loud enough to to catch my attention. And it just said, don't jump. It's not your time. And so I didn't jump because I was like, what the heck was that? And, you know, looking like looking in the sky like is that God?
01:04:18
Speaker
like, what was this? And so I didn't, even though every fiber of my being was like, this boat's going to sink me. like where are like Everyone is screaming and crying you know to God to save us and all this stuff. like It was intense. And in that moment, though, there was just this tremendous feeling of peace. like i guess and it's I guess it's not happening today. And sure enough, the boat limped to shore and we were okay. And it was just, wow that was my moment where it was like, I didn't die, but I i got close. Yeah, that's incredible. What a story.
01:04:58
Speaker
Um, but when I heard you talk about that, I'm like, that's okay. That's, you know, it just resonated with me. And that so like, I looked at that as a synchronicity, you know, to reach out to you and and obviously, you know, it's very beautiful to hear your story and to share your experience.
01:05:15
Speaker
it go fun There's always so many things to talk about with this discussion and. Yeah. to touch on and share with humanity. um and And I always love having these conversations, so it's yeah it's fun. Yeah. um Where can people find your your work?
