Synopsis

'The day after my 35th birthday, I had a near death experience, caused by a sudden brain haemorrhage. Ironically, this brush with death became the conduit for the most powerful healing in my life. I connected to an eternal light which, I came to realise, is available to us all should we choose it. My wish for you in reading this book is to feel this loving light, peace and joy in your life now. The question is: how brightly do you wish to shine?'
Roisin Fitzpatrick

In this ground-breaking book, Roisin Fitzpatrick takes the reader on the remarkable journey of her near death experience, and shares how we can all integrate the light and love of the afterlife into our daily existence.

In doing so, she lends fresh insight into our ancient Irish myths and stone monuments, connecting our past, present and future to this powerful eternal light.

Taking Heaven Lightly is a book to be cherished by all those who wish to embrace and enjoy a meaningful life.

'A brilliant book with an unforgettable message' Dr Chrisine Ranck, co-author of the bestselling Ignite the Genius Within

About this title

Review:

"A remarkable book that is unique in the annals of near-death experiences. Experiences like Róisín's have now been validated by hundreds of scientific studies around the world, and provide evidence that consciousness is more than the brain and indeed that we are more than our bodies. As a guide to enhancing your own spirituality, this is a love story in the most sublime sense."
Dr. Bruce Greyson, co-editor of The Handbook of Near Death Experiences: Thirty Years of Investigation

"A book of wise words that will introduce some people to the light, will draw others back to the light, and will itself long shine light in all sorts of unforeseeable and beautiful ways. A brilliant book with an unforgettable message."
Dr. Christine Ranck, co-author of bestselling book Ignite the Genius Within

"I approached Taking Heaven Lightly with my usual academic scepticism, but the clear, sincere, even humorous, style, attracted me and I was drawn in. I remembered that early Irish Christianity is bathed in light. I think Ms. Fitzpatrick's rehabilitation of pre-Christian Irish spirituality of light is excellent. Suaimhneas síoraí "eternal rest" and solas na bhflaitheas "the light of heaven" are two phrases that similarly share the wisdom and beauty of our heritage. I look forward to the author's next inspirational book"
Dr. Tadhg O' Dushlaine, Head of Department for the Centre for Irish Cultural Heritage, National University of Ireland, Maynooth

"An insightful and in depth look into what lies beyond our physical realm. A must read."Sean Mahon, actor in the movie Philomena and former leading actor in the 39 Steps on Broadway
