Thanks, Substitute teacher, for the AWESOME post today. I’m just a tag-a-long mostly because the callers for Thursday’s conference call eagerly await the download link for the recording which I have at the end of the post.
Before we start, I’d like to ask you all to email me if you’re going to the San Diego event. I really, really, really need to get a head count so Jamie can make the materials including the Ouija boards, etc. If you haven’t registered, please do so by going to the Love & Light icon on the sidebar. If you haven’t decided whether you’re going, just take a leap of faith and do something for yourself. Your soul is screaming for this. This is all SUPER, SUPER important. My email is emedhus@gmail.com.
Blog member and medium extraordinaire, Jason, is a very good friend of Erik’s. In fact they were twins in a past life. The other day, Jason shared a couple of channeling practice sessions he and Erik had. I’ll copy and paste them here. They’re hilarious. I’ll also post the conference call from Thursday.
Channeling practice with Erik and Friends:
As some of you who have known me over the past few years know, I like to get together with my guides, spirit friends and Erik (aka: the gang) and practice channeling. Mind’s eye (clairvoyance) and mind speech/thought (subjective-clairaudience). Every now and then I like to try to ask friends and fellow CE readers to take part as well. Kind of like a group game. It can be a lot of fun to see how spirit translates meaning into different symbols, images and words/thought and still maintain message themes.
Usually we’ll have a topic, theme or symbol and we’ll ask those in Spirit to give us mind’s eye visuals about it. Then we will record the experience and share with each other. Here are two examples from yesterday and this morning. The first one was between Nikki and I, and her Dad who is in Spirit. The second one was with a friend of mine and what Erik M. gave me on the bus this morning. See below:
*A practice assignment is to connect with Dad about a life theme:
Today’s theme is “Love vs Fear”
Step one:
Go to a space where you won’t be interrupted for 5-10 min. *(note: in this instance I don’t do any formal connection techniques-although you can- because I am only practicing for me with my guides/family)
Step two:
Visualize an empty space in your head. Describe it in writing
Nikki: A big tree with a white bench beneath it, gravel area underneath, beautiful flowers around the perimeter
Jason: Hard to do sometimes these days. Sometimes there is a lot of freakin people in there.
Step three:
Visualize Dad in it by himself. Describe it and him
Nikki: sitting on the bench in shorts and collared shirt, belt on, glasses on reading a paper or book. Seems to be waiting for me.
Jason: I think I’ve been messed with. I am only getting a disembodied bald dudes head. Like a floating bobbing head rocking side to side like an snl skit, big ass grin. . freaky
Step four:
Treat that image as Dad and separate from you. Kind of up, out, and away from you, as if you were viewing either in the room with him, or from a distance. Hold that image in your mind’s eye and then “think AT it” as if you were talking to him.
Step five:
Ask him to show you a visual of “Self Love”
Write down any and everything that you see, hear, feel, think, or sense as and with the knowing it’s from him.
Nikki: various images of me doing this alone. Walking along the beach thinking at spirits and angels, me running, me dancing, me on my wedding day in my dress. me as a little girl FULL of love.
Jason : I saw an image of my childhood bedroom in minute detail. It’s in the middle of the night, with the moon light creating ambient light. I am sitting up in bed, with the covers over and around me. There is a horrific screeching sound. The closet at the foot of my bed slowly creaks open and its empty dark, scary, and the only thing in it is on the floor. It’s a hamster cadge with a lone wheel in it turning around and around and around, and nothing is in it. ha ha…
Due date: Bedtime… To be reviewed in the pm or tomorrow morning.
Next assignment will be up to you!
*****Next practice exercise*******
Practice assignment is to connect with Erik m. about a life theme:
Today’s theme is “Self Love”
So I repeated this assignment with a friend of mine who also is a CE reader. Only this time, the topic was “Self Love”. Only this time, we were connecting to Erik M. My co-participant got a lot of visuals of her pets, cats, which was pretty cool. I can totally see how our dogs and cats help us learn about love.
I myself was having a hard time with the exercise, because I was getting a really weird visual from Erik M. They were so odd, I thought it was just me and my weird experiences from the previous night messing up my clairvoyant vision. Erik was being kind of perverse and I didn’t know what was going on and if I wanted to blog about it. So I waited until this morning on the bus to hook up with Erik and find out what that was all about.
So, I followed the same steps as I mentioned above.
Only this time, I saw Erik m., standing in the dark gray clouds of my mind’s eye. Then he showed me his hand with a white sock over it. That’s all I saw. His hand. – Sock. And he would move it around. And then started clowning around started making dirty gestures with it.
‘yeah…right!….. give me a break- Erik!’……
I just looked at him and gave him a funny look and said,
“Ummm what the hell are you doing?…. you better not be showing me anything gross… are you being perverted?”
And then he started giggling and snickering, and then he started acting as if the sock over the hand was a puppet! A sock puppet! Like kids play with. He was making it have a mouth and making it talk. He laughs at me… and then pulls it off and shows him hugging me, and say’s “just kidding”.
He then said,
“The sock images and impressions were spot on in both cases. They were analogies for Self love and loving others. Self love without shame, guilt, or worry over what others think ” He said, “If you cant give yourself permission to find enjoyment, comfort, pleasure in life, you’re gonna have trouble loving others without the same guilt, shame, and worry you attach to yourself. And I don’t just mean sexual or physical. It’s always wrapped up in the emotional….., physical with emotional….self love, is always wrapped up in multiple things, just like a sock over a hand. On the surface it is one thing, but underneath on multiple levels it can be other things……On the one hand, (he holds up his hand with a sock) …if you cant love yourself, you think your not worthy of it, you think you don’t deserve it, that its wrong, and selfish, a sin,… so your just a puppet, you’re coverin yourself up. Hiding behind closed doors, or doing something you think is foolish….And on the other hand…. (he shows me another sock hand)….because your all covered up, your hauling around all this baggage,… you’re not lookin at the real you, youre coverin it up, cant see what you have,…. so you cant touch, connect or put yourself out there to share yourself with others. Your putting a barrier between you and them…..more ways than one…..like this hand with a sock over it…. (laughs)….In one hand, (shows me the hand again)….drop the guilt, drop the judgment, drop the lack of worth, and just love yourself. In the other hand, (shows me the hand and makes puppet motions) …let yourself play, be happy, be silly, and have fun. Enjoy. Then take that sock off and look at your skin. Feel comfortable with it, and know what you do have and that you value it. Then you’ll be in a better spot to share it, reach out, and touch someone. love you, love them.”
**********************************************************
**********************************************************
On a side note. Nikki had no idea that I was doing a second exercise with Erik. Or that the topic was self love. During her run this morning, She channeled her dad and he said this to her out of the blue; She told me this after I’d talked to Erik, ……a co-inky-dink?? hmmm…. 🙂
From Dad in Spirit: —- A message on Self love : “It’s Being proud and Content with all that you do and knowing you did the very best you could. Laughing at your own mistakes and failures, finding time to do what brings you joy, Remembering you are the perfect you” ***
********************************************************** **********************************************************
Channeling practice with Friends: (AKA: spooky Pictionary and some woowoo junk) Cont….
Instructions: Today’s theme is ” insert theme “
Step one: Go to a space where you won’t be interrupted for 5-10 min. *(note: in this instance I don’t do any formal connection techniques-although you can- because I am only practicing for me with my guides/family)
Step two: Visualize an empty space in your head. Describe it in writing
Step three: Visualize Spirit of your choice in the space by their self. Describe it.
Step four: Treat that image as the Spirit and separate from you. Kind of, up, out, and away from you, as if you were viewing either in the room with them, or from a distance. Hold that image in your mind’s eye and then “think AT it” as if you were talking to them.
Step five: Ask the Spirit to show you a visual of “ insert theme ” Write down any and everything that you see, hear, feel, think, or sense as and with the knowing it’s from them.
Due date: Bedtime… To be reviewed in the pm or tomorrow morning. Next assignment will be up to you!

Session #1 With Erik (Jason and a CE buddy hook up with Erik m.) October 18-19, 2012 Theme: (“What 80s cartoon character am I?”)
**OK Erik! Tell or show us what 80’s cartoon character you are!! **
Jason here.– My good friend got a hold of Erik and had the following to say about her experience:
“(laughing) He picked Superman first but I was like, “I don’t think superman was an 80s cartoon character…” and so then he went with Ninja Turtles, which is still questionable but since I remember playing ninja turtles on the playground in kindergarten (89 – 90) I suppose I’ll give it to him.”
Jason’s reply. – Well first it was gi joe, but then he changed it as we goofed off with each other. Usually our interactions devolve as if we were both 5 year olds or something. You know, rocks, sling shots, water fights, mental feats of one-up-manship. He always wins, unless he lets me….sigh.. In any case, He at first said,
“GI Joe. I am the all american joe….” –And showed me images of him in green fatigues and parachute pants, boots, parachute back pack, guns, a berret. But I told him that was so boring. — Then in my minds eye he kinda melted or faded away and morphed into The Increadable Hulk. You know ripping bursting clothes all green and muscles. And he leaped up in my minds eye face and yelled, “Hulk! Hulk smash! RAWWHHRRRHH!!…”
I looked at him, made a face and said, ”Don’t you think that’s kind of obnoxious and violent?”
And he replied by showing me, “Hulk jumped up in my face again and stuck out a big slobbering tounge and licked my face chin to forehead trailing spit!” and then he jumped back laughing like a crazy man!
At which point I just looked at him increadulously and watched as his “hulkness” transformed into a halloween costume and he pulled the mask off an asked me, what I was going as for halloween. He showed me a visual of him and me as little kids. And thinking of that mindset, my inner kid said I dunno… maybe darth vader or a creepy witch… and he smiled wryly and said, “you mean Bitch?”…. sigh…..Halloween dress up jokes.
I then said… OK… Erik… Any messages?
To which he replied with… “HULK SPIT!…. grreeeeennnnn looogiessss…raaahhhhh!” Visual of screaming running kids w jason. He then said, ”U know, hulks finger would never fit in his nose so no hulk boogers. Be grateful..” ..(grin, while cocking his head, arching his brow, and rubbing his hands together.)
My Buddy’s Reply:
See, I was looking for a classic like GI Joe – that’s totally 80s. Incredible Hulk? Lou Ferrigno has been busting out of his shirt since 1978! That is SO pre-80s… I mean I get it, he was a 90s kid. He probably grew up on Nickelodian and ehy, that’s cool, but come on. You’re in the spirit world with infinite perspective and no time…. you could come up with SOMETHING. lol 80’s purist. lol
Jason’s reply: Well… technically your visuals were also 80’s… I clearly remember watching superfriends with superman in several different variations in the 80’s.
Thanks for the practice session!! It was a ton of fun!… Until next time!!
