I was resting comfortably in bed with my eyes closed. I felt particularly tired and depressed. As I drifted in and out of light sleep, I began to feel unusually light and free. Suddenly, I popped out of my body through my head and began floating above the bed. This experience felt entirely normal to me. But I must say that it took me a few moments to adjust.
I remember I was having a horrible panic attack -- the worst yet not too long after my father died. I was in bed and it was dark. I was shaking in fear. Suddenly there was a luminescent being at the foot of the bed. I believed it to be an angel.
I had tried to help my teenage children have better lives and instead everything just went wrong and they blamed me for everything in their lives and for my daughter getting into a situation where she was hurt. In my attempt to help the children my business and home were lost and I was very devastated and just laid down on the couch and prayed to die.
