Anita Moorjani is an international speaker and the author of the New York Times bestseller Dying to Be Me, which has sold millions of copies worldwide and has been translated into 45 languages. Her later books, What If This Is Heaven? and Sensitive Is the New Strong, have also received critical acclaim.
After a 4-year battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, Anita fell into a coma and was given days to live. As her doctors gathered, attempting to revive her, she journeyed into a near-death experience (NDE) in which she was surrounded by unconditional love and deep wisdom. In this place, she was given a powerful truth: Heaven is not a destination — it is a state of consciousness.
During her NDE, Anita was given the choice to return to her physical form or to continue on into this expansive new realm. She chose to come back. When she regained consciousness, her organs that had shut down from cancer began to heal. To the amazement of her doctors, she was free — within weeks of regaining consciousness — of the countless tumors and cancer indicators that had taken over her body.
Anita’s NDE has captured the hearts and attention of millions across the globe. She has been a featured guest on The Today Show, CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360, the National Geographic Channel, and many other programs.
Anita has dedicated her life to empowering the minds and hearts of people through her story of courage and transformation — inspiring others to embody the highest version of themselves. She travels the world speaking with joy and humor to sold-out audiences who are ready to become empowered, unlock the secrets of the afterlife, channel healing, and live vibrant, unlimited lives.
Born in Singapore to Indian (Sindhi) parents and raised in Hong Kong amidst Indian, British, and Chinese cultures, Anita now lives in the United States with her husband Danny. Her global influences and reach extends through her YouTube and social media channels, Sanctuary website, and in-person retreats — urging audiences worldwide to embrace their highest potential, unlock their inner wisdom, heal, love themselves unconditionally, and live fearlessly.
