Shared death experiences (SDEs) occur when a person nearing death appears to share the experience with another individual, often a loved one. During these moments, the observer may report feelings of peace, visions, or sensations that seem to connect them to the dying person’s transition. Research on SDEs suggests they can provide comfort to those left behind, as they often involve profound emotional and spiritual insights. These experiences are sometimes compared to near-death experiences (NDEs), where individuals report similar feelings during their own brushes with death.
