Free Event: Mysteries of Consciousness, Friday, 3/22, 2pm-3:30pm at Selby Library

      INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR NEAR-DEATH STUDIES OF SARASOTA 

IANDS groups can be found in communities around the​ world. Our local groups meet to talk about and share near-death experiences, questions about death and dying, and the latest information from NDE research.

IANDS Affiliated Groups serve near-death experiencers by providing understanding and information to those who have had such experiences. Groups also offer education and discussion of near-death and related experiences to the general public in a supportive, accessible setting.

IANDS Groups allow freedom of interpretation of NDEs and similar experiences and do not proselytize any single point of view. They provide support to NDErs, not therapy.

While fostering the free exchange of ideas through open discussion, the Group safeguards the stability of its participants by refraining from demonstrating or teaching techniques which are known to be emotionally hazardous for some individuals.
