While teaching yoga, Lauren collapsed from sudden cardiac arrest at age 29 with no warning or family history. A student performed CPR for 20 minutes until paramedics revived her with epinephrine. After seizures, she was placed in a medically-induced coma for four days. During this time, Lauren experienced walking through a hauntingly magical old-growth forest with impossibly tall, thin trees reaching beyond sight. The scene was bathed in golden, otherworldly light from all directions, creating an autumn afternoon ambiance. Most striking was the complete silence - unlike earthly forests, bringing liberation and peace. Her normally anxious, layered thoughts melted into perfect stillness and oneness. Walking on soft golden-reddish leaves, her spirit hovered behind her body while holding hands with a silvery, androgynous being in white - beautiful yet faceless. She knew continuing around the path's curve meant ceasing to exist, but felt peaceful and didn't want to leave. A jerk behind her navel pulled her back, preventing further steps. She knew she had to return. Lauren awoke to her aunt from Tennessee at her Texas bedside, later learning her fiancé and mother's prayers had called her back. Doctors found no heart defects, concluding it was likely Long QT syndrome. Post-NDE, she became more spiritual, less anxious, twice as sensitive to others' emotions, and able to physically feel their pain. The experience was like enlightenment - complete oneness with the universe.
