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.

Best of Erik: Suicide

Here’s an oldie but a goldie from one of the early stages of the blog. This in the early days when Kim O’Neill was the medium who channeled Erik. She’s very good, but I just couldn’t afford to use her for frequent sessions, especially giving the fact that I refuse any form of compensation for...

What to do when you Suffer

As promised, here’s a longer post. It’s about how to handle suffering, advice from a young man whose constant companion was the pain that comes from it. From both his life and the insight he gained as a spirit guide, he’s well qualified to give us the guidance we need–probably all of us! And with that...

Struggle

In order to fully grasp and get the most out of our human experience, it’s essential to understand the anatomy of our struggles and of suffering in general. Throughout this book, Erik has helped me understand what I struggle with the most, why I do and what it takes to overcome it. I also came...

Erik on Grief

Many of you found the blog because the grief you were feeling. Here, Erik gives more insight for you.  Me: So, Erik, do you have any suggestions for other parents on how to contact or channel their deceased children and how to deal with the grief of what will never be, the grief of a...

The Parting of the Red Sea

Many of you have asked about Jamie’s small group channeling calls as a way to speak directly with your deceased loved ones. She has three types: The Grievers’ Call (which only accommodates  6 callers,) The Group Phone Call and the Erik Conference Call. Erik conducts the last one, but if you register for the other...

Chaos and Harmony

I’m so excited that several people have signed up for our little lunch get together February 7th. I can’t wait to meet you guys!  On another note, I see that some of you are posting duplicate comments. I realize that you don’t see your comment right away, but I promise I approve them so that...

Fear

Uncertainty is the root of fear Distrust is the root of uncertainty Scarcity is the root of distrust Hostility is the root of scarcity Sorrow is the root of hostility Attachment is the root of sorrow Fear is the root of attachment Chaos is the root of all Harmony is the equal opposite of chaos...

Alien Abduction

I’ve always thought the idea of alien abductions creepy. At first I thought they were really the rampant imagination of the person claiming to have been sucked up into the Mothership, but then one of the blog members, on a conference call, asked Erik why she had small, perfect triangles on a tooth. He said...

My Life After Death

I have great news! The publisher has finally given me permission to divulge the new book. It’s Erik’s memoir completely written by him through Jamie, and I can’t express enough how proud I am of him. It’s AMAZING! A real page-turner. Parts will make you cry, parts will make you laugh, parts will make you gasp...

Annika’s Poem and Erik’s Prank

Less than two years after Erik’d death, his younger sister, Annika, wrote a poignant poem for high school. Its depth belies her young age. She was only 15 years old. I’ve also included the explanation her English teacher required for the assignment. Note: “Red Hands” are a metaphor for her sense of guilt, something all...

Channeling Abraham Lincoln, Part One

I’m pleased to announce Jamie’s event scheduled for January 14th at 6:00 PM EST. It’s entitled New Year, New Root Chakra. As many of you know, the last two events were plagued with audio problems, but Jamie has spoken with the president of the company providing the webinar service, and he assures her that it...

Audie Herron

I know I said I wasn’t going to post anything until January 2nd, but I’m sorry to report that a dear friend and long time member of the Channeling Erik Facebook group has died. Audie Herron was truly a special soul. Please send your love and healing energy to him wife and the rest of his...

Ecstasy, Part Two

Here I am all cozy with laptop in my lap, my Yorkie, Bella competing for my attention and sipping my steaming mug of coffee. It’s raining outside. Hard. I just heard a thunderclap so loud, it sounded like it was only yards away. So it’s a great prelude to busy, cozy holiday plans all centered...

Attachment

Uncertainty is the root of fear Distrust is the root of uncertainty Scarcity is the root of distrust Hostility is the root of scarcity Sorrow is the root of hostility Attachment is the root of sorrow Fear is the root of attachment Chaos is the root of all Harmony is the equal opposite of chaos...

Sorrow

As an adult, I developed compassion for my father once I understood that the root of his anger was sadness. In many ways, he suffered from emotional neglect at the hands of a cold mother. He felt plagued living under the shadow of his world-renowned uncles and cousins, ophthalmologists who invented cataract extraction, corneal transplants...

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.
