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.

While You Were Sleeping…

After you read this, you’ll never feel like a lazy slob for sleeping in! Channeling Transcript Me: Erik, are you aware of people who are sleeping coming over to visit in the afterlife? In other words, when people are sleeping in bed, can they travel to the afterlife so that they’re physical bodies are like...

Is the Afterlife Real?

Channeling Transcript Me: Okay, here’s another interesting one, Erik. One reader wants to know if someone, perhaps Jamie, Kim, Jeannie, me or someone else, could prove to skeptics that the afterlife is real, even applying for the Randi Foundation. I think the prize is around a million dollars or so. We could use that to...

A Sad Announcement

I just heard that Skoshi will no longer be visiting the blog. Apparently her computer acts up every time she does, and she has to reboot. She spent all day trying to fix her laptop, has missed work, has had to take it in the the “computer doctor” etc. Has anyone else had this problem?...

The Shift

Sorry this video doesn’t come with the embed code, but since we’ve been talking about the coming Shift, the fact that my sister, Teri, posted this on my Facebook wall smacked of synchronicity. I’ve watched other videos from the series and they’re amazing! This is an audiobook (Bringers of the Dawn by Barbara Marciniak) worth...

Practicing Visualizations with Erik

Below is an email exchange between CEF members Jason, Robert and Sharon regarding visualization techniques with Erik. Funny but powerful stuff. If any of you want to act as teams to practice your channeling/visualization techniques, I’m sure Erik would be glad to entertain you. Since he’s very easy to channel (and very, very chatty,) I...

Mending, Merging and Motivating

Channeling Transcript Me: When they dropped the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, of course almost half a million people died in those blasts. One reader wants to know how a soul could possibly survive such an assault when everything around is vaporized. Erik: You’re making it sound like the reader is comparing the soul to...

Erik on Visual Manifestations and Animals

Channeling Transcript Me: Erik, how is it possible for some people to see visions of those who have died? Does that mean the deceased still have a bodily form? Erik: No, they don’t have a bodily form. What good is it going to do if we show up like a ball of light? Nobody’s going...

Ask Erik: Chrissie’s Question

As I think I’ve mentioned earlier, even though I have tons of questions yet to ask for the book, I try to pose one Ask Erik question during each hour-long session. Chrissie’s dilemma is one that many of us share as we struggle through our human experience on the earthly plane. The lesson has everything...

Life’s a Bitch (Depending on Your Perspective)

In the beginning of this channeling session, I asked about the hardships one of our family friends had to endure during much of her youth. For obvious reasons, I’ve changed her name to protect her privacy. But I share this with you, because many of us struggle with adversity at some time in our lives,...

Erik on Senses and Emotions in the Afterlife

In this part of the channeling session, Erik shares how senses and emotions differ between discarnate and incarnate souls. Not only did I find this information fascinating, it also seemed so very real and true. Be sure to read the Antal story after the transcript at the end of the post. Talk about synchronicity! Channeling...

Ask Erik: Michelle’s Question

Channeling Transcript Me: Uh, okay, let’s see. I have an Ask Erik question before we close this session. I’m trying to do just one each session until I get most of the questions for the book answered. Jamie: Sure. Me: This one is from Michelle. Her boyfriend, John, died when he was just 49 years...

A Message from Penny

Please enjoy this message from Penny, as channeled through Robert. Thanks, Dearest Robert for providing comfort to my family and me! Penny came through to me on the day of her death and Erik translated her message into human language.  Below is what she had to say.  🙂 She wants her human family to know...

Working 9 to 5 in the Afterlife

A couple of quick announcements first: Thank you all for sending your love for Penny. Erik actually translated a long message from her through Robert, which I’m hoping he will share when he has time. Second announcement: My mom and dad FINALLY agreed to let my sister and I clean their house, so I might...

A Message from Erik

To my wonderful Channeling Erik family: Here is a message that Erik has intended for you as channeled through Jason: Elisa, I have a message from Erik for the both of us and those in the “Family”. Remember how Robert and I talked about Erik learning different ways of manifesting himself? Well he’s been practicing...

A New Companion for Erik

Today, as I was driving to San Antonio, my youngest called in tears to tell me that our miniature pinscher, Penny, was dying. Beginning at 8 years old, Penny suffered from severe cervical disc disease that was considered inoperable by the neurosurgeon. Over the last several years, she started having an occasional seizure, but starting...

Animals, Plants and Rocks, Oh My!

Channeling Transcript Me: Okay, let’s go to a lighter subject. I kind of already know the answer to this. In fact I think I’ve asked it before, but in terms of a complete answer for the book, are our pets, or better said, our animal companions, with us when we pass? Erik: Yes! Me: Okay,...

Hippie Communes, Girlfriends and Location, Location, Location

First of all, I’d like to thank everyone for bearing with me. I guess we bereaved have to have an occasional maintenance meltdown. Sometimes I feel like a pressure cooker. I busy myself every day so I can dismiss grief’s bony finger when he beckons me to wrap myself in his dark, heavy cloak. Every...

Erik for President, 2012

As Erik shares more about the nature of the afterlife, he offers his own viewpoint of the plight of the earth, particularly the United States. It’s interesting to have the political perspective of a spiritual being. Sounds like he’s already in campaign mode! Channeling Transcript Me: Now, some people wonder what the environment of the...

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.
