What You’ll Find in Vital Signs Summer 2026
From ancient near-death experiences in Egypt’s age of the pharaohs to modern biofield breakthroughs in oncology through Reiki, the Vital Signs Summer 2026 edition offers a great many riveting stories through which you can explore the extraordinary.
Join Mark Anthony on an adventure into the past as he takes you to Egypt’s fabled 18th Dynasty (1550 to 1292 BC), where a young prince had an NDE during a hunting trip that led not only to the excavation of one of the region’s most famous landmarks, but to a sudden rise in power.
Angela Harris describes classical tantra — a sophisticated spiritual tradition rooted in nondual philosophy, ritual practice, and embodied realization. Brian Smith discusses 5D consciousness in a world that increasingly makes less sense. And Angela Harris explores biofield advances in oncology involving the healing power of Reiki.
There’s so much more to explore in the Vital Signs Summer 2026 issue, too! Amber Kasic discusses her shared death experience in 2020 that led her into mediumship. Brian Smith explores how spiritually transformative experiences can help heal grief. And we revisit a story first published in 2001, where Kathleen Teuber Younker tells us about her childhood NDE and how it affected her as an adult.
And you don’t want to miss the highly engaging piece by Angela Harris where she introduces us to IANDS Greensboro in North Carolina, and discusses the importance of joining local sharing groups.
