Police searched for hours before an off-duty firefighter, following what he described as \u201cintuition,\u201d located her after seven hours trapped.<BR><br \/>\nIt was during this time, Erica said, that she had a profound near-death experience. She explained: &#8220;The first thing I remember is separating from my physical body, and so I remember looking at my body and recognising that I am not that. There\u2019s something separate from my physical being.<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;I learned that I don\u2019t die, that there actually is no death. There\u2019s something that actually survives death &#8211; some people can call that a soul or a spirit or consciousness.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nErica described a \u201clife review\u201d in which she confronted past trauma and realised she had caused harm to others. <BR><br \/>\nShe said this moment revealed the principle of karma, sparking what she called a \u201chuge heart expansion\u201d and a deeper compassion for global suffering.<BR><br \/>\nLater, she recalled a \u201cwhite light experience\u201d filled with \u201cunspeakable love and peace,\u201d where she felt all beings are connected by a single energy.<BR><br \/>\nErica spent a month in hospital, followed by rehabilitation and six months bedridden. <BR><br \/>\nThough the ordeal left her with lasting injuries, she said it also triggered a spiritual awakening that continues to shape her life and work as a psychotherapist.<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-09-23 11:26:11 A psychotherapist has claimed that death is not the end &#8211; after surviving a horrific fall from a 60ft cliff.
