Near-death experiences and satisfaction with life.

Near-death experiences are associated with lasting positive changes in attitudes, beliefs, and values, which may increase life satisfaction. The article reviews how these experiences often lead to reduced fear of death, a greater appreciation for life, increased compassion, and shifts in personal priorities. These transformations suggest that NDEs can profoundly alter an individual's worldview and enhance their overall sense of well-being.
