58 分钟An out of body experience is the subjective feeling that someone has during a period of time, during a window that they exist without being in their physical bodies.
So during that time they have the awareness that I exist, I'm still here, but I'm not in my physical body anymore.
And it's.
When I say it's a subjective feeling, I like to emphasize that because as long as the person had the feeling that they existed without being in their physical bodies, you kind of don't need that proof or that evidence anymore.
People can experience different things while they have the experience of being out of their bodies.
But to me what really matters is the feeling that they exist without being in the physical body.
So have you ever had one of those experience that just rocks you to your core, but it seems like so different, so out of the ordinary, so extraordinary and maybe hard to believe that you can't even describe it to yourself, let alone to others.
The kind that makes you question everything you thought you knew about reality itself.
I have had a few of those mind bending moments in my life.
Little glimpses that seem to reveal deeper layers of truth lurking beneath the surface.
Experiences that leave you wondering, is there more to this reality than meets the eye?
More to our minds and our consciousness than we have been taught?
If you have grappled with those kind of questions, you're going to love today's guest.
Because Marina Weiler has dedicated her career to rigorously studying extraordinary human experiences that challenge our conventional understanding of the mind body relationship.
Her recent focus is wait for this.
Out of body experiences where people report the sensation of existing outside of their physical form.
Utterly mystifying.
But it turns out there is some powerful science at work here and Marina is a fantastic guide for us.
She would know.
She is an assistant professor of Psychiatry and neurobehavioral sciences at the University of Virginia where she studies phenomena that transcend our typical understanding of physicality.
