Eyewitness to the Afterlife
My Two Weeks in Heaven
In this essay awarded a prize by the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies, Elizabeth Krohn details the near-death experience she had when she was struck by lightning 35 years ago. She argues that that experience, along with the paranormal afteraffects that have followed her ever since, provides convincing evidence that there’s more to reality than the physical world and that, even when our lives on Earth come to an end, our consciousness will live on.
Praise for Eyewitness to the Afterlife
“Elizabeth Krohn is a remarkable and courageous individual, braving public doubt and denial to speak honestly about decades of real-but-impossible experiences that seem straight out of a Philip K. Dick novel. … Her dreams about imminent air disasters and other news stories are among the strongest contemporary evidence for the reality of precognition. One way or another, Eyewitness to the Afterlife will upend all you believe about the human mind, body, and soul.”
– Eric Wargo, author of Time Loops and Precognitive Dreamwork and the Long Self
“Elizabeth Krohn has eloquently recounted the very personal story of her unique near-death experience and its profound impact on her life. Eyewitness to the Afterlife confirms that the deeper nature of reality is incomprehensible and lies beyond our everyday perception. Krohn entered into that world, and she has much to share as a result. She writes with a grounded, simple clarity as an eyewitness to the survival of consciousness after death.”

“One of the most unusual NDEs I’ve ever read! Elizabeth’s sudden NDE from a lightning strike in a parking lot catapulted her into another realm of spiritual life beyond anything she’d ever imagined—stretching time, space, and awareness of what lies on the other side. This is a life-changing book that will make you think deeply about what’s possible in this life and beyond.”
– Scarlett L. Heinbuch, PhD, author of We Met on the Other Side
“Eyewitness to the Afterlife is like a heart-to-heart with your best friend—if your best friend had just spent two weeks in heaven and come back being able to see the future. Elizabeth Krohn is so beautifully candid about her experiences, whether they’re inspiring, frightening, or downright bewildering. As a researcher, I’m blown away by the clarity and precision of Krohn’s precognitive dreams and waking psychic experiences, and I’ll be thinking about them for years to come. This book is an utterly fascinating testimonial to how much we still have to learn about reality.”

Changed in a Flash
One Woman’s Near-Death Experience and Why a Scholar Thinks It Empowers Us All
In this book co-authored with professor of religion Dr. Jeffrey J. Kripal, Elizabeth Krohn delivered her first published account of her near-death experience and the way it forever changed her perception of reality. The first half of the book is Elizabeth’s first-person testimony, and the second half is Dr. Kripal’s scholarly analysis of its wider meaning.
Praise for Changed in a Flash
“Changed in a Flash is a captivating collaboration between a remarkable woman who survived a lightning strike, only to discover inexplicable new—but not always welcomed—abilities and insights, and an acclaimed scholar of religious studies. Elizabeth Krohn’s spellbinding account of her experience and its striking after effects will astound you, and Jeffrey Kripal’s examination of their potentially revolutionary implications will inspire you to rethink how you understand humanity, death, and an afterlife.”

“Near-Death Experiences are often recalled as shockingly vivid events with unexpected consequences, including newfound psychic abilities. Such a case is covered in the first part of the book. But it’s the second part that explores how to interpret the meaning of NDEs. Are they literally true reports of the afterlife, or hallucinatory dreams of a dying brain, or something much stranger? Changed in a Flash explores each of these interpretations, and it ends with a stunning conclusion. A thoughtful, fresh look at NDEs that threatens to exceed your boggle threshold. Highly recommended.”
