Future Memory
by: P.M.H. Atwater

     P.M.H. Atwater, Lh.D, a leading researcher on the Near-Death Experience, now explores new territory as she addresses the nature of perception and how human consciousness is limited only by our linear, past-present-future model of time.  In this ground-breaking work Atwater discusses types of futuristic awareness, presents real-life cases of “future memory,” and reveals how the ability to experience future memory can be developed. Some achieved the ability to “remember” the future as a result of a near-death experience, others because of spiritual breakthroughs, shamanic vision quests, or from some type of special need.  Atwater shows that this new ability not only can become a learned behavior, but may in fact be a signal that the brain is expanding to encompass higher states of consciousness. If Atwater is right, the future memory phenomenon could be a key step in the evolution of the human mind. Balancing research with compelling accounts of real experiences, including her own, Atwater substantially contributes to the rapidly expanding field of “new science. “Atwater’s book includes an in-depth study of the brain shift, and how it can be experienced by means other than the near-death-experience and presents a series of memory techniques designed to assist in developing Future Memory.

    First published in 1995 (Birch Lane Press) Atwater attempts to “construct a framework, hopefully a meaningful context, with which we might better understand what happens during a brain shift and what may be at the very core of existence itself.” In the Journal of Near-Death Studies, reviewer Deno Kazanis, Ph.D., states: “The point is not how our present scientific knowledge can explain or rationalize this experience, but rather how this phenomenon can challenge our science to grow.”
