I Died 3 Times: A Survivor’s Guide to Life, Death, and the Afterlife

For many, death is the ultimate unknown, the final curtain. But for Norma Edwards, it is simply a new beginning. Norma has an extraordinary, authoritative tale to tell: she has crossed over to what she calls the “tough realm” not once, but three times, and was sent back each time with a profound, urgent message.

Norma’s experiences offer a powerful testimony that challenges the conventional view of mortality, asserting that “Life and death isn’t the end that it is always the new begining.”

The First Crossing: An Encounter with Divine Light

Norma’s first near-death experience (NDE) occurred when she was only 20 years old after she collapsed.

“The doctors told me I had a dead foetus inside of me that had been poisoning my body,” she recalled.

It was during this critical medical event that she passed out and began her journey. She found herself outside of her physical body, witnessing the frantic efforts to save her life.

“Then I passed out, and the next thing I knew, I was on the ceiling looking down at my body on the operating table. “The pain was gone. “I wanted to tell them I was okay, but no one could hear me.”

As the medical team fought, Norma was propelled into a magnificent journey.

The Tunnel and the Light: Her transit began in absolute darkness before she encountered something divine. “I found myself in a very dark tunnel, darker than anything you can imagine.” However, there was no fear. “I was travelling at the speed of light, and then I saw what looked like a rainbow with colours I had never seen before.” This transformed into the ultimate source of peace. “As I got closer, it shifted into crystal clear white light. “It was so brilliant, I thought it might hurt my eyes – and then I merged with it.

“There are no words to describe the joy, the bliss and the love I felt. “In merging with the light, I became love itself.”

The Life Review and the Unfinished Mission

One of the most profound moments for Norma was the detailed review of her existence, presented on a colossal screen. This review made the purpose of her life on Earth starkly clear.
“I came to a huge television screen – larger than anything built on Earth – and my life began to scroll across it. “It showed three columns; the first was the life I planned before coming to Earth and the second was the life I actually lived. “And the third was the result. “Each time, it said: ‘Objective not accomplished.’”

Despite the unfinished business, the overall feeling was one of overwhelming peace and love. She was then transported to a river where souls were waiting, including her aunt. But just before she could fully join them, she was stopped.

“She stepped back and said: ‘I’m so sorry, they’re not allowing you to say. They’re sending you back with this message.’ “It was that there is more to life than meets the eye – and that it’s eternal.”

 The Painful Return: A Galaxy in a Teacup

Returning to her body was not a gentle experience; it was described as intensely painful, likened to a spiritual force being violently contained.

“Like trying to pour a galaxy into a teacup; my spirit is huge, so when you force that energy back into a small body, it hurts.”

The return left her with heightened, almost overwhelming, sensory abilities: “My senses were heightened, and coloured appeared as music, with radios pulsing with light. “I could see inside people’s bodies – I thought I was going crazy. “When I walked under bulbs, they would blow. “I couldn’t explain it.”

 The Second and Third Encounters: A Mission Unfulfilled

Norma’s spiritual authority was confirmed when she had a second, and then a third, near-death experience—the second occurring as recently as November 2024 due to cardiac arrest.
“I knew exactly what was going to happen. “The tunnel, the other side, I was about to reach Heaven.”

However, once again, she was prevented from staying, this time guided by a powerful, supportive presence.

“This time, there was a female presence; I think she was an angel. “She guided me just in case I got into my head that I was going to stay.”

She was given the exact same message and a clear mandate: her mission on Earth was still incomplete.

“I was told that half of my mission had only been accomplished.”

The Enduring Message: Nothing to Fear

Today, Norma’s life is dedicated to sharing the wisdom and authority gained from her experiences. She believes her mission is to help others shed the most debilitating human emotion: fear.

“We’re stuck, locked in fear. “It’s my job to release that, so people can be rebirthed into awakening, raise frequencies and get on with life.”

She firmly states: “I don’t fear death, because I know it’s not the end. “That’s something my near-death experience taught me; the soul doesn’t die.” The memory of the divine is a constant source of strength, despite the initial profound grief of separation.

“It’s impossible to put into words the joy, radiance and peace I felt when I merged with the light. “In that moment, I wasn’t just surrounded by it; I became one with it.”

Norma’s final message is one of gratitude and simplicity for all humanity:

“I tell the people I work with to give thanks for breath each morning. “As long as you have breath, you have the greatest gift in the world. “And when the time comes to leave, know that there is no death – you are just leaving the body behind to live a more expanded life on the other side.”

Her experiences have granted her unparalleled authority on the subject of life after death. She concludes: “We come here to learn, to love and to grow. “There is nothing to fear but fear itself.”
