Welcome, welcome back to Round Trip Death and part two of our conversation with Alissa
Rushton.
If you haven't yet heard part one that came out earlier this week, it's episode number
455, and I'd recommend starting there.
Today in part two, we're going to discuss what it's like to be, quote, slammed back
into your body.
Guardian angels and a whole lot more.
So let's get right to it.
The time that they pronounced me deaf was a good 45 minutes.
They cut my clothes and then they paddled my heart, my heart had stopped.
And I could see people screaming and crying, but I didn't realize that was actually my
physical body because I was somewhere else.
The only thing that I could feel, if you could imagine, absolute love and peace, there wasn't
anything else to be felt.
I was greeted by people I'd known in the past.
I went back home again.
Incredibly safe and felt at home.
I want to come back to one word that you mentioned a few minutes ago.
That is that you were slammed back into your body.
To me, some of those kinds of correlations with other NDE stories just make them more
real.
That is a term I hear a lot.
It's usually not a, oh, just nicely came back into your body.
That doesn't happen.
I hear slammed probably the most.
I hear things like, wait a minute, I can't fit back in that body.
I am this huge part of the universe now.
You want me to fit back in that little human suit thing.
And so you had a lot of that feeling too, it looks like.
Oh my gosh.
Absolutely.
I mean, it's like, you know what it's like.
Have you ever bought a bed in a box, one of those foam beds in the boxes?
Yeah.
And when you open that up, you're never going to get it back in.
Nope.
Not at all.
It doesn't belong in there in the first place.
Right?
And you have to shrink wrap it so tight to even get it in there.
That's exactly where this huge, expansive consciousness and we're, it's a huge vibrational
difference as well.
So it's taking something really big and then lowering the frequency of it to get it back
in the body.
And the frequency of our density is low.
We are in a low dense band and that's how we are physical matter.
Because when we're in a higher band of frequency, you start to not have matter.
Everyone can get this with the ice analogy.
Right?
Water is liquid and it can be very big.
If I solidify it, now it's an ice block.
But if I heat it up, all of a sudden it's vapor.
It's the same substance.
It just changes form.
And that's what happens with us.
Our consciousness is like water here on planet Earth.
It's like ice.
It's dense.
It's clunky.
It's, you know, it's crunchy to be down here.
I always call it crunchy energy.
It's not an easy journey.
It's a master path and it's a third grade path.
Right?
It's not the right one.
We're learning.
We're trying to master ourselves and we're learning mastery lessons.
But also like we're still very juvenile in many ways and not emotionally intelligent.
And so we're learning all that.
But it's very icy down here.
Very crunchy ice.
But on the other side, you're vapor.
You know, you can go anywhere.
Your little particles can go anywhere.
And I think people can just get that analogy.
But it is so different being in a body here.
Absolutely.
And even science can prove that.
The speed of the molecules when it forms in ice, they slow way, way, way down.
That's the frequency you're talking about.
Get to water.
They've sped up.
Get to vapor.
They've sped up.
I don't know what's beyond that, but there's probably a whole other level of that.
Love it.
How long did it take the EMTs to get to you?
How long do you think you were gone from your body?
It's a great question.
The only thing I can tell you is I lived in the country.
And so the fastest medical team probably would have taken about 15 minutes to get to me once
the phone call was made.
And I don't know how long I was out by the time Bradford found me long enough for me
to be in pretty bad state.
So I'm going to say at least 20 minutes.
And it could have been quite a bit longer.
It could have been.
And most doctors would say, you don't have oxygen to your brain for six minutes.
You're going to have all this permanent damage.
So how did you deal with that?
Well, when I came back the following day, so after I had been resuscitated, after I
was given a second dose of Narcan in the ambulance because the first dose wasn't cutting it,
so I passed again in the ambulance.
And I woke up in the hospital.
And then the very next day, I actually did think, oh boy, I have brain damage because
I was hearing a voice on repeat that was not my own.
And I didn't learn until years later whose voice it was.
It was a man.
And I heard his voice and I was like, oh my gosh, that's the guy that was telling me this
phrase on repeat.
So the next day, I was still so sick.
The next day, I was back infusing because I would go and infuse the pick line and do
the whole protocol for six hours a day, the whole chemotherapy protocol.
So the next day after my near death, they had me right back at it.
And I remember sitting in the chair and this man was saying, I'm getting better and better
every day and every way.
And it just was on repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.
I couldn't stop it.
And I literally thought, oh God, I really might have some drain damage.
And then I learned years later, it was Emile Couillet, the father of affirmations.
I heard the voice and that was in my head singing me the song.
I'm getting better and better every day and every way.
But I did.
I thought I had brain damage.
I was all of a sudden had all of these gifts that came online.
I had, you know, claircelience and clairgustence and all of these clairaudience and clairvoyance
that I didn't have before.
And all of a sudden, I had these things and my husband thought I was crazy except for
the fact that I could prove it.
And I had enough of that come through to where, you know, one example was we were backing
out of the driveway.
I still couldn't drive.
And we had a very long country road driveway and we were just backing out.
And I said, you have to be careful, honey.
There's a handicap driver that's going to come and he's going to come exactly at the
same time you're backing out and you're not going to see him when we're going to hit.
And he's like, woman, what are you talking about?
You're crazy.
Yeah, you're crazy.
And though he was a smart man and slowed down.
And so as he was coming out of the driveway and slowed down, he saw this driver and he
looked and he saw, he made a note and he's like, how did you know the handicap plate?
And I said, I could just see it happening.
And so we had enough of those moments where he was like, well, I don't necessarily believe
in this stuff, but I can see that it's happening.
Do you mind if I ask right now and I will edit this out if you're uncomfortable with
it?
What happened to your marriage?
Because a lot of marriages break up after an NDE.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for asking.
I'm actually, you're welcome to leave this here.
We did divorce and I do want to go on record and say that we had a great love.
We were together for 20 years.
And though what happens, at least what happened to me is I, in that near death experience,
broke into a million pieces, a billion, a trillion pieces.
I broke into the universe and I came back together and I realized my life was broken.
I realized that everything I was trying to do to heal myself was not working for me.
In fact, it was killing me.
And then I had to go about putting myself back together.
And when I put myself back together, I was Kintsugi-ing myself.
In Japanese, there's the art of Kintsugi, where we take the broken vase and we put the
gold and we make something beautiful out of it.
And so I was in the process of Kintsugi-ing myself.
And I came out a different shape.
My vase was no longer the shape that my husband fell in love with.
At one point in time, I mean, I was a smoker and a drinker and an overeater and not wanting
to be healthy.
And he didn't break into a million pieces and he wanted to still do those things.
And I didn't.
He was happy to watch TV and I couldn't sit in front of the box anymore.
I literally could not consume TV.
I couldn't stand the smell of alcohol.
I couldn't stand the smell of cigarettes.
Those things about me really changed and I had to stop doing those things.
Now it didn't happen for me overnight, but it did happen.
And so our marriage didn't end overnight, but it did end.
But it ended with as much love as we had for each other.
And I tell you, I wouldn't have made it through that time without him.
He's an incredible human being and I'm super grateful for him.
But I do understand why marriages break up because it's such an expansion.
And then you have to reconfigure your life in every possible way.
There was no part of my life that was left untouched.
I literally had to reconfigure everything about myself and I look different.
I physically look different.
My eyes are a more clear, different color.
My face shape's a little different.
I have so many different parts about me that is really curious, but I understand that's
because of the process of Kintsugi.
Most marriages that do break up after an NDE, it happens pretty quick within a year or two.
So that's interesting that yours took more time.
That very unfortunately very common because you do come back a very different person in
so many ways.
Yeah.
And your husband was, yeah, you're not who he married.
Even if you're a better version of that, still a different person, I get it.
And not just the clairvoyant stuff, right?
You weren't just a crazy don't back out into the road.
Right.
But you say unfortunately, but really what I learned on the other side is we have a funky
notion here about a lot of things.
As humans, we've been having these programs like, oh, you need to stay with this person
forever because you've signed a piece of paper that said you would when we actually come
in with sole contracts and sole agreements.
And we complete those sole agreements.
We complete our lessons with somebody.
And so it's really not unfortunate because in our case, I mean, he went on to get remarried.
He always wanted to have a couple kids and now he does.
Like now he's learning other things and getting to have these beautiful experiences and need
to.
And so we, I think we have this idea that we're locked into certain things, but really we're
here for growth and expansion and to learn lessons and the fundamental lessons of unconditional
love, forgiveness, understanding that we really are all connected and being able to hold the
consciousness of that.
Those are the lessons that we have to learn here or else we don't get to go on to other
destinations.
We get to keep coming back here again and again and again and again and again until we learn
those key basic lessons because on the other side, you instantly manifest, you instantly
create.
And so on the other side, if you're thinking bad thoughts about people, well, guess what?
You accidentally create a whole bunch of not awesome stuff very quickly.
So here we're learning to manage our emotions and balance ourselves and not maybe miscreate
and time space is a little more generous with us so that we can understand that I have a
fear thought and it's a few weeks before that fear thought comes in.
It's more gentle for us because on the other side, you have a fear thought and you instantly
create the fear thought.
Hey everybody, very quick break here.
Just wanted to mention something at this time of year and that is that Will and I, hey,

it so very much.
All right, now back to Alyssa.
Tell me a little bit about your healing process, your physical healing after you came back.
You had a long ways to go.
I had a long ways to go and people always remark at the weight first because I lost about
120 pounds and kept it off, but it was more than that.
I was so sick and diseased on the inside and I literally threw everything I had at it.
I hired every healer that I could.
I had a beautiful nutrition and health coach, her name was Shelly Murray, and I saw this
sparkle and dazzle in her eyes and I thought, whatever she's doing, I want that and I'm
going to do anything she tells me to do.
She talked to me about my food and I didn't realize that what I put in my vehicle had
any effect on my vehicle, which is silly because if you put sugar water in your gas tank of
your car, you know that's not going to work out well, but I was putting sugar water in
the gas tank of my car.
I had to change all that and I started juicing and I started drinking smoothies and detoxing
my liver and I also enrolled myself into an outpatient mental health program because
I was depressed.
When I came back, I literally was dissociated with my identity and I had, you know, on the
other side, I was not Alyssa anymore and I came back and I didn't even, when they woke
me up on the toilet, I didn't even know my name.
I had no idea of what my name was.
And so I felt very depressed and I had to go and do the mental health work of healing
the trauma and all of the embedded trauma programs that are in our physical bodies from myself
that I had experienced here in this now time, but my parents and my parents' parents and
their parents and I just went in and started using some of the tools that I learned.
I learned on the other side that there are certain frequencies that if you listen to,
can help put your body into a state of repair and reprogramming.
And so I literally at the time went just, I couldn't really walk.
You know, I had the walker to get around, but walking was not a thing for me.
So I literally would lay in bed and there was a meditation I highly recommend, her name
is Kelly Howell.
And it's called healing, healing meditation.
And I would just listen to her healing meditation with these frequencies in it.
And I would envision myself as being able to walk and being happy in my life.
And that was all I could do at the time and just trying to eat better and you know, that
sort of thing.
And then pretty soon, it wasn't long before I had enough strength and energy to get out
with my walker and do a lap around my house and then get out from my driveway and maybe
go down a couple of houses.
So it was a gradual evolution of just adding, adding, adding, building, building, building,
healing, healing, healing.
And it took me about five years.
I was on 28 different medications, including a large amount of end of life pain medications
that they only give you because it's so addictive.
They know they'll never get you off of it.
And so I got myself off of that myself.
I didn't go to a like drug rehabilitation clinic.
I just did the inner work and I, you know, the reason why somebody has that much pain
is at the end of the day, an emotional issue.
It's easier for the body to feel physical pain than it is for the body to feel emotional
pain for most people.
And so that pain expresses itself through the body.
And so I was drug seeking in fact, and I wanted the drugs to numb the pain.
So I then had to go and do the work to feel my feelings, to deal with the pain and the
trauma so that it could express and run through and not stagnate in my body.
And once I started doing that, I then started backing off the drugs and backing off the
drugs.
And it took me about five years to get off everything if you can believe it.
Yeah, I believe it.
They're super addictive.
Okay, just a couple more questions that I'm going to let you go.
You mentioned angels a few minutes ago.
Tell me about what you know about angels.
Oh, well, I have had profound experiences with my angels in my lifetime and still do
angels believe in your free will and angels will not come in typically unless there's
a life or death situation.
They have to be invited in and they are wonderful beings.
And I encourage everybody to talk to your angels, invite them to work on your behalf.
We have a whole host of other energies and frequencies and light beings, angels being
one of them, ascended masters and other other races like Pleiadians and others that are
here to help you.
It's just that they're high level beings and they will not break your free will.
So they're not going to come and show up and talk to you unless you say, angels, I could
you really use some help?
In fact, here's something that I do that just works like magic.
Every day I say, angels, please go before me and pave the way for my day with magic
miracles and safety at every step of the way.
And I tell you, I do this and it is it's magic, it's miracles, it's safety at every
step of the way.
I love to do this when I'm traveling and you'll feel their presence, especially when you invite
them in because what you're doing in that moment is you're lifting your consciousness
and they can then come and support you.
But again, they will not break your free will only in times of life or death will they come
in and it's usually your guardian angel that will come in and swoop in and rescue and be
like, mm-mm, you're not dying today.
Do you feel like you know who they are?
In my case, absolutely I do.
Okay.
And I'm talking about like specifically, like this is great grandma Sue or something
or is it just I have this wonderful angel.
I don't know anything more about him, her, whatever.
Yeah.
Well, I think this is a great question and it varies for everybody.
First of all, I think that great grandma Sue is probably not angel status.
If you're interfacing with great grandma Sue, you're interfacing with her astral realm energy.
That said, you know, for me, Archangel Michael is who's always come to rescue me and my time
of need.
And I didn't even know who that was when I first interacted with Archangel Michael, but
I very much the first interaction I was like, oh my God, that was Archangel Michael and
I just knew it.
And that was when I was 14.
I think that some people are may know the names of their angels.
Some may not.
If you don't know, you can always ask.
You can only say, who is this energy?
Tell me who you are.
And they will tell you.
And I will also say if you're dealing with the astral realms and if you're not certain
enough how to discern energies in the astral realm, anyone can tell you there anything.
So what I, one of the things I teach in our Academy is to always ask when you're talking
to your angels to say, I'm asking to speak to my highest, most light filled angel and
light team.
And so your intention is what connects you to that.
And so that intention acts like a safety bubble around you versus I'd like to talk to spirits
or I'd like to talk to angels.
You don't necessarily know what you're going to get.
So really setting your intention.
I love to talk to my highest, most light filled angel and then feeling that frequency raise
in yourself by getting into gratitude so that they can come and meet you.
And you can have a conversation.
You can have a dialogue.
They can be there to support you.
You can say angels like help me with my finances or angels help me with my relationships.
They will, they're there for you always.
And they're 24 seven.
You know, they can work while you're not working.
So I encourage people to always call on your angels because otherwise, you know, it's an
untapped resource.
How much fear of death do you have?
This is an interesting question.
Interestingly enough, the first when I came back none at all.
And now I realize how precious this lifetime is.
It is such a gift to be here on planet Earth.
It's such a gift to get to come back and experience the beauty and the emotions and the physicality
of it.
So I notice now I have some, not the death itself, but like, I don't want to leave.
It feels so precious and it feels so important, especially at this pivotal time we're having
on the planet.
We are literally in a massive consciousness shift.
We're in a massive evolution.
And it is, I believe, the reason why many of us chose to come back here at this time
and to even come here at this time to play a role or to be a witness in this beautiful
shift in human consciousness.
I really value it and I would be lying if I said, oh, I don't have any fear because
I really love being here.
And it's such a blessing and many people don't know that.
I appreciate the honesty.
I'm going to give you the very last word here and that is for somebody who isn't feeling
that, who is, life is too rough, right?
What advice do you have or how can you lift them today?
I love this question.
Thank you, Eric.
Well, the first thing is I've been right there myself where life is too rough and it feels
all too much and I feel like I just don't want to be here anymore.
And I think when we're feeling that way, that's a great indication that it's time to get some
help outside of ourselves and to help us lift and do something different.
That's your soul's way of saying we can get it back on course, but we have to do things
differently.
And so in terms of specific advice, maybe it's finding a spiritual mentor.
Maybe it's like me, I started with that nutrition person who I just started shifting the molecules
in my physical body and feeding myself a little different.
I started doing different activities.
I spent less time in front of the TV and more time reading books that lifted me up.
Earth is a difficult place, but we can and do have the ability to shift it.
And I think when we know that within us is the power to create heaven on earth or hell
on earth, but the power lies within you and the power lies knowing that you can shift
any circumstance.
There's nothing special about me whatsoever.
So literally if I can come back from the dead and heal my physical body, you can too.
No matter what you're dealing with, you have the power within you.
And I'd even go so far to say is that God is you and you are God.
You have this ability to tap into energy that is stronger than anything you've ever been
taught.
And mostly it's just about having some support to tap into that and really recognize that
you can change your life.
And I want to leave you with this.
You know how waves work?
So if the wave is really big, it also goes very low.
It's physics.
What comes up must go down.
What goes down must go up.
So if you're in the down, what I want you to remember is the potential for your up is
huge.
Your suck moment in life can absolutely be the rocket fuel for your best life.
And I'm here to tell you that only you have the power to use it.
Alissa, I've thoroughly enjoyed this hour.
Thank you so much.
Oh my gosh, Eric.
Thank you so much for having me.
I so appreciate it.
