#188 Part 2: Children’s Near Death Experiences with Dr. Melvin Morse

in
Dr. Melvin Morse on Interviews With Innocence

Dr. Melvin Morse, M.D. is a graduate of George Washington University School of Medicine and a recipient of the National Service Research Award. He is a recognized authority in the field of near-death studies and has researched near-death experiences in children for eight years. As a medical student, Dr. Morse always pursued his interests in consciousness research. During a neurology rotation at Johns Hopkins, he worked under the legendary Vernon Montcastle and cared for patients who had half their brains removed or split-brain surgery. He assessed the effects such surgery had on consciousness, his first understanding that consciousness does not depend on brain function. He attended lectures by the early pioneers of functional neurogenesis. This is the revolutionary concept that all thoughts and experiences change our brain and our brain is capable of repairing itself.

After an internship at the University of California at San Francisco and a residency in Pediatrics at Seattle Children’s Hospital, he was in private practice of Pediatrics for over twenty years caring for three generations of patients. He retired in 2006 to concentrate on his consciousness research. He was a Professor of Pediatrics at both the University of Washington and the John Bastyr Naturopathic College.

Dr. Melvin Morse ​has come to understand that by learning the neuroscience of the brain, we can rediscover ancient wisdom long forgotten by the dogmas of religion. After learning about his work, I read his book "Closer To Light", which opened my eyes to the spirituality of children and the reality of near-death experiences, God and eternal life. Listen to learn how Dr. Melvin Morse was transformed from a spiritual skeptic into a real evangelist of the misunderstood world of near-death experiences.

A Recipe From Ellen Whealton: DIY Peppermint Foot Cream

Here's a great DIY recipe for creating gifts, party take-homes, or for treating yourself to some pampering! It has an invigorating sensation – the combination of aloe and peppermint feels cool and refreshing. Adding the Lavender to this soothes your skin and creates aromatherapy to calm your mind and promote relaxation.

You may like trying this with sugar added to create a DIY body scrub.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of coconut oil – the kind that's solid at room temperatur

  • ½ cup aloe vera gel

  • 15 drops Lavender essential oil

  • 10 drops Peppermint essential oil

  • Note: You can add more or less of the above ingredients.

Directions:

1. Add all ingredients into a glass bowl or a stand mixer if making a larger batch;

2. Whip ingredients together for a couple of minutes. You'll know it's done when it is light and fluffy!

3. Scoop it into glass jar(s) with an airtight lid(s), then store in a relatively cool spot so your mixture doesn't liquefy too much. Small glass mason jars work perfectly for this!
