RELOADED: TOP Psychiatrist Studied 1,000 Near-Death Experiences — And What He Found Will Blow Your Mind | Bruce Greyson

In this episode, Guy talked with  Dr. Bruce Greyson, a retired psychiatrist and an author. He discussed the transformative effects of near-death experiences (NDEs). He explained how NDEs profoundly change people's lives, making them more compassionate and less materialistic. Dr. Greyson shared compelling stories, including that of a Marine whose NDE made him unable to continue his military duties. He highlighted the growing recognition of NDEs in the medical community and the need for further research. The episode also delved into Dr. Greyson's personal journey, the scientific challenges in studying NDEs, and the universal message of interconnectedness and compassion. About Bruce: Dr. Bruce Greyson is the Chester Carlson Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia.  He was previously on the medical faculty at the University of Michigan and the University of Connecticut, where he was Clinical Chief of Psychiatry. Dr. Greyson has consulted with the National Institutes of Health and addressed symposia on consciousness at the United Nations and at the Dalai Lama’s compound in Dharamsala, India. Dr. Greyson’s interest in near-death experiences began just a few months after graduating from medical school, when he treated an unconscious patient in the emergency room who stunned him the next morning with an account of leaving her body. That event challenged his beliefs about the mind and the brain, and ultimately led him on a journey to study near-death experiences scientifically, leading to more than a hundred publications in medical journals.  He co-founded the International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS), an organization to support and promote research into these experiences, and for 27 years edited the Journal of Near-Death Studies, the only scholarly journal dedicated to near-death research. Through his research, he has discovered common and universal themes in near-death experiences that go beyond neurophysiological or cultural interpretations, as well as patterns of consistent aftereffects on individuals’ attitudes, beliefs, values, and personalities.
