When Brianna Lafferty stopped breathing in a hospital in Texas for eight minutes, she not only came back to life – she returned with a message.
“Death is an illusion and our time on earth is not the end,” she told the Daily Mail.
Her extraordinary brush with death came only 25.
But instead of being a traumatic experience, she left with a deep feeling of peace, goal and a transformed relationship with life itself.
She said: ‘It changed the course of my life – which I feared no longer had power over me and what I used to pursle seemed no longer important.
“I came back with a sense of mission and deep respect for both life and death.”
It was only eight minutes, but it felt like she had been away for months. She remembers that she heard a voice in which she was asked if she was ‘ready’ to accept death because she was confronted with a challenge that she believes she would decide or not.
Brianna, who lives in Colorado, had fought a rare genetic brain disorder since childhood, called Myoclonus dystonia. It caused painful muscle spasms and nerve pain that made sleep – and live – difficult.
But it was in 2017 when it became so bad that her body gave it.
When Brianna Lafferty thought it was her time to die 25 years old after fighting a rare neurological disorder since her childhood, she willingly surrendered.
She had suffered from extreme insomnia, sometimes four days without a minute’s sleep and had come with the flu.
Her sodium mirrors fell to a critical low 115 milliequivalents per liter (normal range is 135-145).
When someone’s organs start to fail, their ability to regulate liquids and electrolytes leads to sodium balances.
“My body had just spent. I was incompatible with life. ‘
Brianna is in a hospital bed in the hospital in Texas and stopped breathing. Her heart stopped. But eight minutes later, ‘wonderful’, it started to beat it again.
What happened in between, she says, has changed everything.
While she lost consciousness, Brianna heard a voice asking if she was ‘ready’. When she said yes, she slipped into what she calls ‘complete darkness’.
Instead of panic there was clarity.
‘I was completely quiet, but I still felt completely alive, consciously and more than ever before.
“There was no pain, just a deep feeling of peace and clarity.”
In this other empire she no longer remembered her human self.
She was weightless, detached from her physical form – and aware that what we experience on earth is fleeting and vulnerable.
“Everything happens there in one go, as if time does not exist, but there was a perfect order.”
Brianna noticed that she was filled with that and zeros by a bright blue tunnel, “of which she thinks it was symbolic for the mathematical structure of the universe.
That tunnel opened in a white room without doors or windows – just more numbers – before she entered a series of lively, surreal landscapes.
In one scene there were beings that she did not recognize (but felt deeply connected) sliding down with snow -covered trees.
Brianna, who is located from Colorado, began to suffer from poor health at the age of 10, with some of her debilitating symptoms, including painful muscle spasms, nerve pain, anxiety, depression and insomnia. For many years her condition was surprised until she was finally diagnosed with Myoclonus Dystonia
While in a hospital in Texas with her mother, Brianna says she stopped breathing for eight minutes before her heart started beating again ‘miraculously’
When she thought of how she didn’t like snow, the scene immediately shifted into a lush, spring -like environment.
At one point she learned to fly – only to swing herself in a pole and to lose an arm.
But unlike when she lived on earth, Brianna did not experience any pain when she was injured and she was fascinated to look while her bloody limb grew back.
Her journey eventually brought her to a barbed wire fence. On the other hand there was a mountain, a farm and a house.
The other beings went through the fence – but Brianna could not follow.
Her last stop was a room where a role was presented to her by seven powerful beings. But before she could unravel its content, her ego returned – and her consciousness too.
Back in her body it felt like she had been gone for months. But in reality only eight minutes had passed.
“It changed the course of my life.”
The years prior to her near-death experience were determined by chronic illness, confusion and pain.
From the age of 10, Brianna experienced severe muscle spasms, nerve pain, anxiety, depression and crushing insomnia. For years, doctors were stunned.
Eventually she was diagnosed with Myoclonus dystonia, a rare neurological movement disorder caused by a genetic mutation.
It is thought that fewer than 5,000 people are being hit in the US.
Although the condition itself is not typically fatal, the physical and mental toll left it vulnerable to life -threatening complications on Brianna’s body.
Her recovery after the near-death experience was long-physical, emotional and spiritual.
“I had to learn again how to walk and talk,” she said.
“I had another chance in life, but the adjustment was real.”
Nowadays, Brianna works as a death and spiritual guide, which helps others help by the emotional, physical and existential complexity of chronic diseases, dying and spiritual transformation.
Brianna underwent experimental brain surgery for her myoclonus dystonia called ‘deep brain stimulation’ in 2022 that she said it was ‘enormously successful’ and helped to reduce her symptoms
Her experience, she says, is not a story about dying – it’s a story about awakening.
In 2022 she underwent experimental brain surgery called deep brain stimulation to help control her condition.
During the procedure, a battery-in stimulator was implanted a pacemaker of the brain-in her breast, with threads that sent signals to the part of her brain responsible for her symptoms.
She calls the procedure ‘enormously successful’ and it has considerably reduced the severity of her condition.
Looking back she sees everything with new eyes.
‘All the suffering I went through – it is now crystal clear why it happened. I no longer move life. Even the hard parts. Especially the hard parts. ‘
Although she admits that she is a bit afraid of still having a near-death experience (‘the recovery is heavy’), she trusts that everything that needs to happen wants. “I now live with a heart full of gratitude instead of anger.”
“Here is the power of hope, resilience and the Kwantumsprong that my life has transformed,” she said.
