Yvonne's NDE: Jesus' Embrace Felt Like Both Father & Mother (Part 1)
What Researchers Found
The Story
Yvonne Sneeden, a French-speaking woman from Belgium living in the US, experienced her second NDE in 2008 due to an accidental overdose of arrhythmia medication, causing her heart to stop. She felt her organs shutting down and instantly entered God's light, basking in absolute peace and joy as a pure soul. A translucent being, identified as Jesus, approached and embraced her, filling her with unconditional love like ideal parents. She asked about her relationship with Steve; Jesus showed 'no' on a screen and explained their differing life approaches—mind versus heart. She questioned racism; Jesus attributed it to self-centeredness. They moved toward a crystal city where excited child angels ran to Jesus. Yvonne refused to return to violent Earth, but Jesus gave her strength by touching her finger, infusing life energy. Their essences merged, letting her feel universal oneness and love. She returned to her body. After the NDE, Yvonne co-produced a documentary on NDE after-effects, embraced universal spirituality, gained deep empathy, and felt profound purpose in sharing her story while working in IT.
