Tammy is "Freaked Out" by NDE (Near Death Experience)

0:01 Since the dawn of time, man's deepest questions have revolved around the reality of an afterlife. Of course, there's never been a way to know until now. Witnesses of the world beyond, hope in a better existence, overwhelming, unconditional love, real people, real experiences and a glimpse into the eternities. This is Round Trip Death.

0:41 I am super happy to welcome to the show today Tammy Chaney. Tammy, how are you? Very good, thank you. It's a good day today. It's a fantastic day. And we were just chatting about all your travels. And one thing that I love to do before we talk about somebody's near -death experiences is to get to know them just a little bit. So if you wouldn't mind taking one minute and tell us a little bit about, well, whatever you feel like so we can get to know you. But I think the traveling is really interesting. OK, so I've been traveling. Well, it's 11 years in February. This year will be 11 years. I'm originally from Southwest Florida, Naples, Fort Myers area, born on the East Coast of Florida. I just came to a place where, see my issue was as I kept moving from place to place to place because I needed to change my scenery. So when I went on the road and I started traveling and my scenery was changing all the time, I felt like I felt peace for the first time ever in my life. So that became my life and I've traveled all over the United States, pretty much every state except I think there's about four or five states, the upper like North Dakota, South Dakota, Michigan, all that upper area I have not done yet. But other than that, I've done them all and I've done them all multiple times, multiple, multiple times. What are a couple

2:14 of your favorites? Well, Colorado is by far my favorite state. Arizona, where I'm at now, I'm in Phoenix. Phoenix isn't where I love in Arizona. Flagstaff or Lake Havasu or Sedona. I love those areas of Arizona. So Arizona is definitely my second favorite and then New Mexico. So I love the West and I love that whole duo of all three of those states together. Many states are beautiful. It's just just something about the energy is the only way I can describe it for New Mexico Arizona and Colorado. The energy is just it's off the charts Okay, well we're gonna jump right into some of your experiences and I don't mind warning the audience We're gonna be all over the place today. This isn't gonna go necessarily exactly chronologically But why don't you jump in and tell us what happened with your head injury and we'll kind of go from there Okay, so so that was my near -death like experience. It's exactly like a near -death I was living in a home that was for Women that were pregnant that had had some sort of injury you know, regardless of how it came and they needed to be in a place that was like a protective home, I guess you could say. At that time, I started going to church because it was a church -based home, and so I

3:47 started going to church for pretty much the first time in my life. I did go to Sunday school here and there when I was a kid because a bus would come and pick us up, but the only thing I remember about that was the juice and the snacks that they would give us. And so actually going to church and now at this time I'm 24 years old, I'm pregnant and I have a almost three year old son at that time. I go to this church and after about the third time going there, I had an experience which was, I don't know, I think people call it like a Kundalini awakening. All I know is my eyes couldn't see clearly is the only way I can describe it metaphorically speaking and when I went through this experience and I can go into detail if you want but when I had this experience I all of a sudden could see everything crystal clear completely different from the way that I was seen and I mean like the people around me the world like everything in the world that experience in itself had already it was a full -blown I was completely a different person at that time. So exactly two weeks later after that experience. Now I'm going to go back just a little tiny bit before I tell about this experience.

5:13 I had a head injury. Where I was blacking out for about 10 seconds every day like throughout the day Because of my head injury and and it would just be I would be out for 10 seconds And I'd come back to and how the neurologist said this to me is he said I was having non epileptic seizures and what happens is the brain shuts down just for seconds and then Reboots back online. I guess that's what a non epileptic seizure is So I'm not sure if that's what happened but basically what I did is I went into my room and I did nothing more than I sat on my bed and I leaned back onto the backboard that was behind me I didn't lay down I was sitting up but leaned back on the backboard and Instantaneously, I was not where I was when I sat down anymore. I was in a whole other place and now this place Would appear like earth only because it had a dirt road. It had trees that have flowers It had this very ancient looking building off to the to the right so it kind of looked like earth, but What I was seeing is I was seeing the most beautiful Flowers that I had ever seen Was seeing grass that was the most beautiful grass that I had ever seen the

6:44 trees were like Like everything was so vibrant everything was in such beautiful colors Colors that I would never be able to describe here. They were not colors that exist here in this time frame Next to me was this being On this side and another being on this side and now they looked humanoid But there there was this aura I guess on them they were shiny it's the only way I can describe it or bright bright I guess bright would be a better word. They had this brightness about them and so I'm walking with these two beings and I'm I'm freaking out like I'm literally like running over to the flowers and and just looking at the beauty of them and running back to them and we're walking ahead I'm like and the trees look at the you know I'm literally freaking out probably like a child in a candy store at what I was seeing and the trees the the leaves on the trees were this just most Beautiful green that I can't even explain, but it was almost like it was translucent is the only way I can describe it. They were like they were just this beautiful translucent green.

8:13 And of course, I'm running back and forth. I'm freaking out. I'm like, I can't believe this. And as we're walking down this road, what was so what was so specific about the flowers is as you're walking, the beauty of the flower. is like every time you look at the flowers, they're always facing you is the only way I can describe it. You never see the back of the flowers. In fact, I didn't see the back of the tree either, but I didn't go behind the tree. I was seeing it from this angle, but you never saw the back of the flower. So as you're passing them, every time you look at them, they're always facing you is the only way that I could describe it.

8:53 So you're just continually seeing the beauty of this flower there was also a the only way I can describe it is it was a tone there was this tone in the air as well as this smell that was it was just there's no way to describe the smell that I smelled I don't even know any example Like maybe it would be every single flower that exists on the face of the earth that gives smell was all combined together in this amazing like smell. I hate to interrupt. I have so many questions at this point and I want to hear all the details.

9:42 So I promise we're going to come back. We left off on the smell. I just want to fill in a few blanks. That's all. One is Did you feel like you like your spirit left your body? Did you feel like it was a dream? What did you feel like was going on? No, I was definitely 100 % Transported from one place to the other and that place was more real than than the earth place and The reason why I say that I did not it wasn't like an out -of -body experience because for me personally I started having out -of -body experiences when I was five years old and when you have an out -of -body experience you feel well I did I felt the feeling of like it would be like is the only way I can describe it and as a five -year -old It was extremely scary. I was scared to death.

10:45 Like, I didn't know the name out of body, nor did I know that what was happening to me was not normal. I thought that was normal human things, so it wasn't even anything to even talk about. And when you go back into the body, there is still some sort of an effect that you feel when you go back into the body. And that was scary to me as well because there's an experience that you have in both of those transactions. In this experience that I had, it was instantaneously. There was no me popping out of my body or even popping back in. I was instantaneously somewhere else. It was so real. It was more real than here is the only way I can describe. Like it was I knew that was home. Actually, I knew that was my home. And that's part of what I'm trying to figure out is how are you transported from here to here if your body was still here? Help me understand. I have absolutely no idea. But my body was definitely still sitting on that bed.

11:59 in the exact same position that I was in when I left. Okay. Thank you for the honesty. I appreciate that. I'm wondering when all this is going on and the beautiful flowers and the smell and the two beings and everything, what are you feeling? Is there fear? No. I instantaneously, from the moment I was there, I instantaneously felt what true unconditional love is. There's really no like perfect human word to put to it. I knew instantaneously that was my home and I knew instantaneously that I was being flooded with this pure unconditional love is the only way I can describe it. That's why it was more real than here. You don't feel those things here. Even just that word love, L -O -V -E, is such a tiny minute little word compared to actually what love feels like. Did you feel like that love was coming from the beings or from the place? I felt like it was in everything.

13:18 This is the only way I can describe it, okay? Everything there was this love. It was Everything is the only way I can describe it. It was everything that love was everything Okay, tell me a little bit more about the beings. You said that they were shiny and humanoid looking Right. Do you think they had names? Did you know who they were? Give me some more idea Yeah, no, I never asked their names. I'll be I'll be completely honest with you the only thing that was coming out of my mouth towards these beings was the words of me freaking out about what I was seeing. The beings actually never even spoke a word to me.

14:02 It was like they were leading me up this street and they were not dressed like, you know, how we dress now. They were definitely something from an older time frame is the only way I can describe it. They weren't dressed like us. They dressed like ancient is the only way I can describe it. And they never spoke to me. They never said nothing to me. Everything that was happening there, it was coming from me. You know, I was speaking. You're freaked out. Words are coming out of your mouth. What kinds of things are you saying? I'm saying, oh my gosh, look at the flower. I'm like, you know, and I'm going to the net and I'm like, and this one, and this one, and the grass. Oh my gosh, look at the grass. You know, I'm like, I'm just Freaking out about what I'm saying. It was just me Almost being the me that is normal me You know, it's just my normal me was there a really good kind of freak out not a scared kind of freak out Right, right.

15:09 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, it was instantaneous. I knew this was my home and instantaneously it was The pure, unconditional love. That's the only way I can describe it. Pure, unconditional love. There is no word for the feeling that you feel there. It is just so pure is the only way I can describe it. Just complete pureness. Have you ever felt anything even remotely close to that in this world? Never. No. I don't think that can exist here. I just don't believe it can exist here. It's not something that is... It just can't. It can't exist here. It's not human. Whatever it is, it's not human. Tell me more about this tone. Was this like a musical note or what was it? Okay, so it was almost like it was music, but it wasn't, okay? It was like, it's nothing I've ever heard here on Earth. So to put it into words, it was like energy. With lots of beautiful lights, but I didn't see energy and I didn't see a bunch of lights But what my head's telling me right now the only way that I can try to describe it is it's all these beautiful colors and it's Moving is the only way I can describe it. Nobody's ever asked me that before I'm like, wow, I don't know how to describe that It wasn't music like we hear here. It's not like

16:42 that It was different. It sounds very multi -sensory, like seeing, feeling, hearing, maybe some sensories that we just don't have here. I mean, we don't really have words for this, so we're trying to figure out how to say and express this. It almost sounds like more than multi -sensory kind of experience, more than seeing, hearing, feeling, like maybe you had more centuries than you do here. Yeah, I was definitely like, that's how I used to explain it. I'm like, this was me up there. I was because it really was like it was I can't use the word intense because that almost seems like a negative there was nothing negative about it at all. I just I knew I was home and I knew that I was obviously somewhere else and and the overwhelming feeling of love was just no words can describe it. When you say home, does that mean this is a place where you feel like you have been before? That I can't answer, but what I mean by home is I know that this is only temporary and not that I knew anything about I didn't know nothing at that time about nothing.

18:12 I'm going to be completely honest with you. I knew that that was a place where I must have been before. There was no I did not have to contemplate anything in my head. There was no there was no remembering that I had been there before. There was no other thought other than I knew that was my home. That's the only way I can describe it. There was no thought. I don't know if you have thought on the other side or not because there was no thought. It was just, it just was, is the only way I can describe it. It wasn't in any of my out -of -body experiences at five and six and seven and eight years old. I never have been there before. I never went there. I didn't out -of -body and go to some other realm like that. It was, in my opinion, in my human self, here being on Earth, I'd never seen that place before in my life. In my now brain. You know what I mean? But when I was there, immediately, it was just 100 % complete knowing. I knew that was my home. I was feeling the most amazing unconditional love 2 .0 I mean. Thank you for answering all those questions for me. Let's jump back to where we were. You were talking about the smell and

19:43 I want to hear more about that and then I want you to keep going on from there. The smell sounds like if you could figure out how to bottle that you'd be rich making perfume. Oh yeah so the smell was well like I said before it's almost like It would be a combination of like roses and gardenions and lilac and violet, like all these smells you're smelling, but it's like it's all one smell. It's like it's only one smell, but you're smelling all of these like together, all at once. It would be like having, I guess, guess a good explanation would be like having a bouquet of flowers and having all the flowers that give off beautiful scent or herbs, you know, because I because I do remember it being Like there had to have been sage or lilac. I don't know other plants other than flowers because the smells it was like you could smell every single smell but it was all happening at the exact same time. That's the only way I can describe it. OK, what happened next? OK, so as I'm like freaking out and everything about the flowers and I'm running back to the beings, we're walking again down this dirt road, I all of a sudden have the thought, I guess, or not the thought,

21:13 just my body just automatically did it. I look over my shoulder. to see what's behind me because at this point even though I was running around like a maniac I didn't see anything behind me my focus was always only on the two men and my focus was always on just the flowers and the trees and the grass so I looked over my shoulder like this and when I looked over my shoulder back behind me going as far as the eye can see there were these beings that were humanoid shaped. Okay, that's the only way I can describe it. They were shaped like a human, but there was no clothes, no face, no skin, no nothing. They were pure light beings, and they were as far as the eye can see. And as soon as I saw those light beings, I turned my head back to the front of me. And now in front of me, instantaneously, there's this big, gigantic, huge light. It wasn't there before. It was a light similar to the sun, but it would be like, you know how when you're watching a sunset at the beach and the sun comes down and it's resting on the water? Well, picture it taking up the whole line of the water instead of just that small section. The whole front of

22:44 me was taken up by this light. that was like the sun. Instantaneously, I knew that light was God. I don't know how to put that in any other words other than I knew that light was God and that is who I had been speaking to, communicating with since I was three years old. Once I saw that light, Once I knew that was God and that that was who I'd been speaking to since I was three years old I turned my head over to the one of the I don't know if I turned from the right or the left I don't remember which way I turned but I turned my head and looked at the being and I said I can't wait to go back and tell everyone and Instantaneously, I was right there on my bed just like that instantaneously I was on my bed so immediately the first thing that I wanted to do as soon as I realized I was now back in my bed is I wanted to jump up and I wanted to go tell all the other girls in the house what just happened to me so I jump up just like my thought was Ran out into the hallway area. You got to understand at this place that I was at it was like a four -bedroom house You had a master bedroom on one side and then you had four bedrooms on the other side It was it was just a regular house that you would never

24:14 know was a safe house. I Go out into the hallway and every time we would see each other. We would always speak Anytime we saw each other walk wherever we were at in the kitchen. We'd say hey, what's up or whatever? You know what I mean? We we'd speak Well, I went into the hallway and started walking and the girls started walking past me and I went to go speak and I I could not even get a Not even a noise out of my my mouth. Okay, I didn't know what was going on. But at the same time I could still feel that light that I had just left. It was like I came back here and there was this bubble around me of that light, okay?

25:03 When I realized I couldn't speak, I immediately turned back around and I went back to my room and I sat on my bed. And I said to myself, I'm just gonna sit here until whatever this is leaves me, and then I'll get up. and I literally sat there for about 45 minutes and after about 45 minutes I thought in my head I wonder if I can speak yet and I literally just said like three simple words and the words came out and I jumped up and I instantly went out there and started telling the girls what had happened to me. Whoever I was before that experience I don't know who I was before that experience But I had had that experience the other experience at the church two weeks earlier So there was already something happening with me, but whoever I was before that experience It wasn't who I was after the experience So I'm telling these girls what happened to me and I'm like, you know, cuz in my head I'm thinking all I got to do is tell them about this experience and then they'll know And the same thing that happened to me will happen to them, you know, I had no, I just automatically assumed that.

26:08 Well, that wasn't the response I got. In fact, these girls thought I lost my mind. They could not believe how I was talking. I don't know how I talked before, but they could not believe how I was talking. I immediately became somebody in the house that was the girls began to start feeling a little bit standoffish too. Because once that experience happened to me, I couldn't keep my mouth shut I could not stop talking about it Like it was day and night any person that would allow me to speak to them That is all I had to talk about because it was that Extreme for me nothing else in the whole entire world mattered anymore Except for that experience that I had and I needed to tell the whole world I actually ended up losing, I only had a handful of people that were in my life that I wouldn't necessarily would say friends, but they were people in my life. And they all cut me out of their life. Like literally, they cut me out of their life. I did not have one friend left of whoever was in my life before that experience.

27:20 Now I know that I can be a little bit dramatic. and very pushy when i'm trying to like you know i'm like don't you see what i'm saying it was that extreme for me i left that place saying i can't wait to go back and tell everybody i i wasn't lying when i said that and that was all that came out of my mouth to anybody that i saw or talked to because i couldn't stop it was that powerful whatever that was so yeah that was my experience With that anyways, I've had so many. We'll talk about a couple other things, but do you, and I'm asking you to speculate here or just tell me your feelings. Do you feel like that is the place you are going back to after you die someday? I'm just going to be honest with you. I don't necessarily think that the trees, the flowers, the road, The grass, the building, the beings behind me, I don't think that that was necessarily a place. It was more of the feeling of that unconditional love. I knew that that's what I, I knew that was the home. It was more of what I was experiencing there rather than what I was seeing. In my own opinion, whatever that visual that I had of trees and flowers, that may exist somewhere, possibly,

28:52 but I don't think that that is an actual physical place, I guess. I just know that that feeling of that unconditional love that permeated the place, the tones that were going on, the colors of the flowers, all of that, it was all one. It was all, everything was just one. I was one with it. It was one with me. It was all one together. It was just all one. And when I say that I knew that that was home, I don't mean the place itself. If that makes sense. It was the feeling of it.

29:35 Yeah, it was just a feeling. So let me ask the question a different way then. Do you think that after you're done with this life, that you are going someplace where that's what you will feel again, that place you felt was home? Is that where you feel like you're going back to? 100%. I already know that. I 100 % know that. So you have no fear of death and obviously I don't have fear of actually dying I don't want to leave my children in a Devastated state that they lost their mother the feeling of knowing what it feels like to lose somebody That's what I fear. I'm like I have to be here for as long as I well I already know I'm gonna live to be at least a hundred I've always known that I've always said that I don't know how I know that but I'm gonna live to be at least a hundred so I I'm not really fully worried about it, but I do think about it from time to time. What if I was wrong my whole life? What if I do leave early? I'm like, oh my gosh, I just I don't ever want my children to ever have to feel that kind of pain.

30:42 That's what gets me. Not the actual transition, because you don't there is no feeling of transition when you transition to the other side. There is you're here and then you're there. And it's instantaneously there is no in between. You don't feel death. There is no feeling in death. Death, in my opinion, is an illusion. I believe death is a made -up word by humans, and it's not something that really exists. We go from this existence to that existence instantaneously, and there is no feeling. Well, and as humans, I can see why we would make up the word because there is somebody or some animal or something. that was alive and moving a minute ago and now they're not any longer and that's all we know. So hence a word like that has to come into play. I know that you mentioned that you lost your friends after this. How else did it change your life and your personality? I never turned back to be honest with you. I have been full force with and have had many many other experiences not like that, but other experiences that had continued to happen to me and still continue to this day happen to me that are definitely outside the human vessel activity. Or inside. It's inside,

32:15 but it's outside. I can't explain it. It's something that I'm well aware, I guess, about myself. I know that we're, we're, we're light beings, and I know that this is only a meat suit. You know what I mean? Like I under, I have the knowledge of knowing that which is within me, which is also without me, because it's, it's everything. That's why it's in and it's out, and that's the only way I can describe it. So I, I never stopped talking, but as I went more experiences and more experiences and more experiences were happening. So it went from that to talking about this to talking about that and talking about this and you know if I got into a real good conversation with somebody I'd revert back to my experience you know that happened at that time and and the experience that happened at the church but I never stopped talking this is my whole life.

33:14 This is all I do. Like all my kids, I only have one of my kids that travels with me. The rest of my kids are adults, but he's 14 years old and he's heard it his whole entire life. He's heard me speak to every single person I walk into or end up having a conversation with. He's heard me say it to every single person I have a conversation with. All my kids. That's all that comes out of my mouth. And what do you find? Some people aren't ready to hear something like that, obviously. What kind of reactions do you get? I'll be honest with you. If I end up being in an encounter with a person, it's always for a specific reason and it has everything to do with whatever is going to come out of my mouth.

33:55 Like I've never had anybody be like offended. I've never had anybody make any kind of derogatory comments. In fact, generally people are whatever it is, it goes on them, you know, just a little bit. This is strangers, okay? Not my friends, not people that knew me, whoever I was before, okay? These are complete strangers. When I went on the road, that was my main goal. Now I'm gonna reach as many people as I possibly can. And so anybody that I bumped into, it... Became like a conversation. That's what they heard and generally they're hugging me when they're leaving They're thanking me. They're gifting me. I can't I I don't think I've ever had a bad Encounter I'll be honest with you I don't think I've ever had a better bad encounter whoever I talked to they leave with something a piece a little grain sand piece of Whatever it is that I have now what they do with that is is you know I never see these people again so I don't know what they do with it but I can almost guarantee the way that they were reacting after the fact they probably will never forget about me for the rest of their life sounds like your mission in life is just to spread all of this all right Tammy there's actually So so so much more that we can talk

35:27 about and we're gonna have you back on the show sometime To talk about some of these other things, but I feel like this is a good place to wrap this discussion But I want to give you the last word I want to give you a chance to leave everybody with a some kind of a message of hope Some positivity to brighten their day and their whole outlook on life right now Okay, so what I want to say is this earth supposed to be heaven on earth and if we can we can all just only grasp the message to love your neighbor as yourself true unconditional love and you ask who's your neighbor every single human being on the face of the earth that's who your neighbor is this is supposed to be heaven on earth right now and the earth is changing so many people are waking up So my message is wake up allow yourself to to wake up We all collectively together could change this whole planet beautiful Tammy Thank you so very much.
