Welcome to my website !
Have you ever felt the presence of a deceased loved one? Did you hear him? Did you see her coming towards you with a smile? Did you feel his arm around your waist in a familiar gesture lived a thousand times during his lifetime? Did you communicate with her during sleep?
If so, it is likely that you have experienced an After-Death Communication (ADC). These spontaneous and direct contacts, allegedly initiated by the deceased, are the subject of my two most recent books Quand les défunts viennent à nous (2017) and Contacts spontanés avec un défunt (2021).
______
You will also discover, through my books and other writings, my work of 30 years in the field of Near-Death Experiences (NDEs).
In order to offer you an overview of death-related experiences, I also provide an introduction to End-of-Life Experiences (ELE), in particular to deathbed visions.
Current events
We are currently conducting a 5-year international research project on the phenomenology and impact of After-Death Communications (ADCs). On the Research page, you will find information about the team and the research project.
New
We have recently launched a website dedicated to the project:
“After-Death Communication Research Project”
You will discover:
- Publications resulting from the project
- Many videos and podcasts of the team members
- Our current surveys
- The News of the project
- A bibliography on ADCs
For any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your visit !
