On October 6, 2009, my 20-year-old son Erik, took his own life. Since that sad and tragic day, an overwhelming sense of grief and despair propelled me into a search for answers. Answers that would provide me and others with comfort and hope. Some of those answers came from the many books I bought, but many came from an unexpected source: Erik himself. Read more.

Where to Begin?

These Erik stories are starting to pile up, so I’m going to have to share a couple of them every day or so! How fun! But keep ’em coming. This one’s awesome! So many things happened since I asked Eric to prank me that I don’t know where to begin. The list includes the following:...

A Letter from Al

I saw this on Facebook yesterday. It’s exactly what Erik says. My little genius. In the late 1980s, Lieserl, the daughter of the famous genius, donated 1,400 letters, written by Einstein, to the Hebrew University, with orders not to publish their contents until two decades after his death. This is one of them, for Lieserl...

Erik and Jamie on the Phone Today

Here’s another one of your wonderful stories! Today 22 April 2015 I had my first group reading with Jamie Butler. Erik showed up and rocked the house, he and I are buds as we both play guitar; thank you Erik!!! I recorded my session and inbetween Jamie’s words, where she pauses, you can plainly hear...

Erik Plays Freaky Alien Noises

Here’s another story from a blog member. Very cool indeed. The very day I subscribed to the Blog, Erik did the following (and saved the best for last!): 1. I had just read the Pennies/Dimes from Heaven posts and found a quarter in the park while walking my dog (possibly just a coincidence). 2. I...

Missing Bangle

I love wearing my son’s copper bangle that he made in metalwork class when he was thirteen. I had it inscribed with “living his dream” on the first anniversary of his death, four months ago. I would never take it off but I get a claustrophobic feeling when I wear jewellery for too long and...

Love ’em Through it

Kate Sitka graciously channeled this guest post despite the fact that her mother just passed away. She’s headed home to lend support to her father. I’m reaching out to all of you to send her and her entire family love and prayers. Thank you. Errrriiiiiicccckkkk!!!!!! This is the very first piece I wrote in my...

You Know My Name

To start, I think that I’ve landed on this blog not by chance. I was looking for guidance. A part of me knew that there is more to life than what everybody’s teaching us. You have to understand I grew in a strict Catholic family, graduated in a Catholic school, where I took Theology classes...

The Channeling Erik Weekend

The event this past weekend was absolutely wonderful. Erik was up to his old tricks, locking people out or in of their hotel rooms, making songs play on people phones during Jamie’s teaching, and more. When Erik takes over Jamie’s body during the trance channeling, the first thing that happens is he runs over to...

Subtle Push

Wow, I’m getting so many Erik stories that I can’t keep up with you guys, so I’m posting two today! After I click the “Publish” button, it’s off to the airport back to Houston. Overall, the weekend was breathtaking, life-changing, and, well, there just aren’t the right adjectives to describe it. Lifelong friendships were formed...

Always and Forever

Yet another wonderful Erik Encounter:  Cheesy title I know, but I’m a cheesy gal. One technique I use to detach myself from someone I’ve finished a reading with is by listening to music. Erik has me listen to 2 or 3 songs, and he usually picks them out. Today was no different, and he was...

Spring a Leak

I’m placing a button on the righthand sidebar of the homepage that you can click on to submit your Erik encounters. It’s right above Jamie’s Love and Light icon. Hopefully, it’ll be functional by the time you read this. Be sure to submit yours! These are only for stories about Erik pranking or visiting you. Also...

Erik Called Me!

I’ve heard of Erik doing this to several people, including me, but when he called me, he actually said, “Hi Mom! It’s me, Erik. It’s me!” He was calling from a 12 digit number that was not a working one.  I’m waiting for my next one! Hi there! I wanted to share and Erik encounter...

The Death of Children

A lot of us have lost children, and, as I can attest, the pain is especially excruciating. To make matters worse, the healing seems to take longer than when we lose other family members or friends–not always, but generally. As for my journey through grief, this blog and especially the upcoming book has done a lot...

L.A. woman

Here’s another great Erik story. For all of you who are submitting, please note that I’m going to publish them one by one, never two or more on the same day, so if you haven’t seen your post, I promise it’ll be here soon! Thanks for all of these stories. They’re so uplifting, funny and...

About Erik

I am fairly new and heard if you ask for a sign from Erik you will get one. Well, it may not have been Erik, but it was someone from the other side. I was laying in bed listening to a guided relaxation meditation. Earlier that day I had gone to the pharmacy to pick...

Where to Begin

If you're new to Channeling Erik, I recommend you read the backstory first. Then, I suggest you start with the very first post. In doing so you can follow my journey just as I did, through the inexplicable, inconceivable, and yet utterly undeniable surprises that I have encountered since my son''s death. Welcome.
