People now living in the afterlife can communicate with us. They have the ability. We just aren’t able to slow down long enough to receive their messages. They do try to communicate.
One ordinary situation in which they can come through to our conscious mind is in dreams. When we dream, our bodies and minds are relaxed, so we have fantasy dreams we wouldn’t accept as real in our normal day-to-day lives. In this video, Dr. R. Craig Hogan presents two dream visitations people had that contained wonderful, uplifting messages.
When we are in a relaxed sleep state, messages bubble up from our subconscious into our conscious mind. We are so open and accepting that we have fantasies that could never be true, but in the dream, we accept them. That is the remarkable power of the relaxed mind. Our loved ones in the afterlife know they can come through in dreams because our skeptical, conscious mind is relaxed. So they take advantage of that time to give us messages, appear in full body, and even take us on fantasy journeys with them. The dreams are more real than ordinary dreams, and the person remembers them better than other dreams, even to remembering details that would be lost in an ordinary dream.
In this video, are accounts of two actual dream visitations people had that were uplifting and meaningful for them.
The first is a dream described by Claudia Carlton Lambright in her book, Just a Dream Away: After-Death Communication Through Dreams. This is what she wrote about the dream experience:
I hope I’m adequately expressing how amazing this dream experience was—it was as if there were a play in progress, and I stepped onto the stage and asked one of the actors to hug me in the middle of the play! My family was going about their day as if nothing was unusual…but, it was a dream, and I was the only one who knew it.
Exactly a year after Rusty’s death, he came to me in a very special dream. I dreamed I was at a business meeting. After getting checked in and moving into my hotel room, I went down to the lobby. There were lots of people there but they all seemed to be engaged in conversation, so I stayed in the fringes. Suddenly, I looked slightly to the right and there was Rusty, standing very close to me and smiling. I knew immediately that it was a “visit.” Surprised and elated as usual, I cried, “Rusty, you’re here!” “Yes,” he said, “I felt you really needed me, so I came.” I think he asked me what’s wrong, why was I pulling on him so hard. I told him I missed him and wanted to see him. He said, “Do you need help with the questions? If they ask you what’s the most important thing, tell them ‘kindness,’ because it’s not at all forthcoming.” I hoped I would be able to remember everything he was saying. Then our son was there with us and the three of us were standing close together, holding hands. Then my consciousness faded and I opened my eyes, back in bed.
In a second dream visitation, a patient of Dr. Allan Botkin, originator of the Induced After-Death Communication psychotherapy procedure, told him about a dream he had of his ex-wife. It had all the hallmarks of a dream visitation: it was extremely vivid; the patient remembered the dream thoroughly; the dream had significance for the patient; and the dream contained details that show it was his ex-wife visiting him.
This is the account from our book, Induced After-Death Communication.
Jerry had come to see me for psychotherapy about an unrelated matter, but after developing some trust in me, felt he could tell me his spontaneous ADC story “without being labeled a nutcase.” Jerry was living in the Midwest and his ex-wife was living on the East Coast with their three children. One night, he experienced the clear image of his ex-wife while he was asleep. “She looked beautiful, peaceful and happy,” he said, “and she wanted to tell me about something of great concern to her.” Jerry said she told him that he needed to start playing a more important role in rearing their children and even offered very specific suggestions about each child. Jerry said his experience was much clearer than a dream.
Jerry awoke right after his experience, baffled by its remarkable clarity. He could remember the entire experience, and for him it felt like a real conversation with his ex-wife. After lying awake awhile trying to make sense of his experience, he managed to get back to sleep.
The next morning as he was making coffee, the phone rang. It was his ex-wife’s sister. Tearfully, she told Jerry his ex-wife had been killed in a car accident during the night.
Suddenly, the meaning of his experience became clear. Since then, Jerry’s ex-wife has appeared to him five times in spontaneous ADCs, each time offering further advice about their children. “Every time,” he said, “she did all the talking.” And after each experience, Jerry followed her advice closely. In all instances, the advice turned out to be very helpful.
As he told me [Dr. Botkin] the story, Jerry laughed at one point and said “She hasn’t changed much. She was always hyper-verbal and bossy.” When I asked him if he thought that his wife had really visited him after she died, he said defiantly, “I am sure of it. I am as sure of it as I am that I’m looking at you right now. Nobody can ever tell me that it wasn’t real, not you or anyone else. I don’t care what other people think about this because they really don’t know. I didn’t believe in this stuff before it happened, but now I have no doubt whatsoever.
Anyone might have a dream visitation. They are not in our control, however. If you haven’t had a dream visitation, but want one, it doesn’t mean your loved one is ignoring you. Those in the next life can’t make the dream visitations happen easily, just as they can’t materialize in full body and speak to you. They do want to communicate, and may be able to communicate in dreams. They are not ignoring you and have not left you. They are only a thought away. Ask for a dream visitation. If they are able to help you have one, they will come to you. It is just one of the many ways you can communicate with your loved one in the afterlife. It is further proof, you and your loved ones will never die.ar
