Hi, Oliver. Thanks a lot for coming on the podcast.

Hi, Simon. Thank you so much for having me.

So we're going to talk about your book, Invisible, Out-of-Body Experiences and Explorations

into the afterlife, the Monroe Method. Could you tell us, first of all,

what is the Monroe method? Well, Robert Monroe was the pioneer of out-of-body experiences in

modern times. You know, he had a spontaneous out-of-body experience in 19, in the late 1950s,

1958, I think it was.

And as a radio producer, um, he was really, um, not only surprised,

but in shock about what had happened to him.

And consequently he dedicated his life to the research of this phenomenon.

And he left behind a great legacy, which we can call the Monroe Method, really.

When you're having an out-of-body experience, is it that you are actually outside your body and you have a normal waking

state like you do now? Or is it more like you're still aware you're in your body, but you're

visualizing everything that's happening? No, I'm indeed outside of my body and I firmly believe

that we're never truly inside of our bodies.
