Embraced By the Light: Colombian Woman Drowns & Experiences Life After Death (NDE)
What Researchers Found
The Story
Ingred Honkala experienced a near-death experience after drowning in a water tank at the age of three. During the NDE, she felt absolute peace and serenity. She left her body and saw it suspended in the water. She realized she was not her body but a being of light. She decided not to return to her body but was eventually pulled back when her mother rescued her. After the experience, Ingred felt disconnected from her body and struggled with her identity. She became rebellious and faced challenges in school. Later, she pursued a career as a marine scientist but dealt with existential depression. Eventually, she found purpose and empowerment through therapy, realizing that her experiences had meaning and learning to embrace gratitude and silence.
