PANELISTS:

Dr. Eben Alexander III

Academic neurosurgeon Dr. Eben Alexander, whose career includes decades as a physician and associate professor at Harvard Medical School and revered teaching hospitals, was once staunchly committed to the materialist world view -- the belief that the physical world is all that exists. His scientific belief system was altered by his 2008 transcendental near-death experience (NDE), an odyssey into another realm during a week-long coma.

Despite a bleak medical prognosis, Dr. Alexander awoke to make an inexplicable return to full health. His medical case and recovery were validated in the peer-reviewed Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease. His story was also featured in a series of peer-reviewed medical articles about near-death experiences (NDEs) in Missouri Medicine (2015), now published as the book The Science of Near-Death Experiences (edited by John C. Hagan III, 2017). It concludes with his chapter, “Near-Death Experiences, The Mind-Body Debate, and The Nature of Reality.”

A pioneering scientist and modern thought leader, Dr. Alexander has been featured in hundreds of media interviews including for ABC-TV’s Good Morning America and 20/20, The Dr. Oz Show, Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday, Larry King Now, Fox and Friends, Discovery Channel, Biography Channel and numerous international radio programs and podcasts. He has also been named to the prestigious Watkins Mind Body Spirit List of the 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People multiple times since 2013 (alongside the Dalai Lama, Pope Francis, Eckhart Tolle and Oprah Winfrey among others).

His books are available in more than 40 countries: Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife, The Map of Heaven: How Science, Religion, and Ordinary People Are Proving the Afterlife, and Living in a Mindful Universe: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Heart of Consciousness, co-authored with Sacred Acoustics co-founder Karen Newell.

A graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Dr. Alexander received his medical degree from Duke University School of Medicine in 1980. He taught neurosurgery at Harvard Medical School for fifteen years, and has performed over 4,000 neurosurgical operations. During his academic career he authored or co-authored over 150 chapters and papers in peer reviewed journals, authored or edited five books on radiosurgery and neurosurgery, and made over 230 presentations at conferences and medical centers around the world.

Dr. Alexander has spent the 15+ years since his NDE working with other scientists and experiencers around the world to hone a more complete scientific world view, one that honors the unified nature of a primordial mind and our ability as sentient beings to manifest the world of our dreams. He has dedicated himself to sharing information through his books, lectures, workshops, and documentary and media appearances about the nature of reality, near-death experiences and what they teach us about the mind and consciousness.

Karen Newell

Karen Newell is an author and specialist in personal development with a diverse body of work that rests upon the foundation of spiritually transformative experiences. Her personal growth programs, workshops, guided meditations and teachings enable individuals to achieve life transformations towards greater self-fulfillment and contentment, quality relationships and choices aligned with a heart-centered consciousness.

As an innovator in the emerging field of brainwave entrainment audio meditation, Karen empowers others in their journeys of self-discovery. Using Sacred Acoustics recordings and other techniques, she teaches how to engage with your inner world to connect to guidance, achieve inspiration, improve wellness and develop intuition.

Karen is co-author with Eben Alexander III, MD of Living in a Mindful Universe. At international workshops presented with Dr. Alexander, Karen demonstrates key practices of consciousness exploration: heart awareness, intention, maintaining neutrality, emotional management and cultivating internal knowing. She shares a broad knowledge of spiritually transformative events, including near-death experiences, after death communications, and shared death experiences, with a focus on their life-like features, transformative after-effects, and remarkable similarity to the natural process of death—all with the common theme of love.

Her lifelong interest in ancient cultures and sacred sites catalyzed her drive to understand the purpose of our existence and humanity’s collective history. In her search for answers, she discovered that firsthand personal experience is crucial for the fullest understanding. She enrolled in hands-on experiential courses to investigate and develop such skills as meditation, lucid dreaming, astral travel, telepathy, remote viewing, self-hypnosis, and forms of energy healing, which validated that we can all develop these abilities. Most surprising was that this exploration led to unexpected personal and spiritual growth.

With focused dedication, she evaluated different theories and techniques through experiments in her daily life. Using this depth of personal evidence, she cultivated a personal knowing, not only of the reality of the spiritual realm, but also a facile expertise in living that life of daily connection with universal consciousness. Among her greater attributes is the rare skill of discernment – an ability to separate the wheat from the chaff in navigating a pathway towards truth.

Karen’s most intriguing forays into consciousness involved listening to sounds such as gongs, crystal bowls and tuning forks. Recordings containing binaural beats were particularly effective at minimizing distracting thoughts and restlessness, allowing her to finally reach the expanded states of awareness she sought. Karen joined with Kevin Kossi to create original recordings for meditation that incorporate binaural beats, and together, they founded Sacred Acoustics to share these experiences with others.

Prior to a career in personal development, Karen enjoyed 26 years in the magazine and newspaper publishing field, in key leadership positions providing oversight and direction for technology transitions in the print industry. Her fondest memories from her publishing career were of nurturing young graphic artists and digital publishing specialists. That same quality of caring resonates throughout her current work with Sacred Acoustics, her books and media appearances, and in her personal development workshops and webinars.
