Before we begin today’s exciting topic, I want to share a couple of stories. The other day I was sitting outside with my sister, Laura, reminiscing about our mother who died this past summer. A few months ago, blog member and medium, Robert, told us that she would come to visit us as a butterfly. Sure enough, along came one with rather tattered wings flying around my head. It settled on the chair next to me and sat there for a long, long time. Even when I touched it and cupped it in my hand, it didn’t fly away. Then after several minutes it circled around my head and came to rest on my shoulder. We told her we loved her, thanked her for her company, and she flew away. What a wonderful visit that was. Butterflies that appear after death do have symbolism: They are a message that indeed there is life after death. I find this very comforting, because this means that my mother, an former atheist, was trying to communicate to us that she was wrong (and probably very happily so.)
Here’s another amazing story. My son-in-law has had persistent groin pain for the past 5 years. We thought it might be a hernia but of course, being the modest man that he is, he refused all offers to check from the plethora of doctors in our family. Months go by. Then Friday I ask Erik what the cause of his pain is and he told me it was a problem with the gracilis muscle where it inserts into the pelvis. Really? Really? How in the hell would Erik know about this thin little muscle? I venture to say most physicians don’t know about it. Erik also recommended he go to someone who does myofascial release work and he did just that the next day. The diagnosis was confirmed and the result of his initial treatment was amazing. Dr. Erik. Jack of all trades. No malpractice insurance required.
I also would like to make a request. Those of you who attended the San Diego conference, if you haven’t already done so, please write a testimonial and email it to me (emedhus@gmail.com). Don’t worry. It doesn’t have to be a novel. I also would love those of you who have participated in the grieving parents call to share their feedback as well, because I truly think it’s healing to communicate with deceased sons and daughters. Perhaps your words would be just the encouragement they’d need to take that leap of faith.
Today I have something very special for you. Cindy and Kent (www.eclecticverve.org), two special attendees from the San Diego event, recorded the entire weekend. This recording, as you will soon see, has forever changed my life and for that I am forever grateful to them. In the recording, Jamie trance channeling spirit, Grace, who died over 100 years ago. Her “job” is to guide other spirits in designing their life plan before reincarnating, and during the San Diego event, most of us asked her just what we are here to do. In order for you to see how clearly different Jamie’s voice is from Grace’s, I’d like you to listen to Jamie channeling Jack the Ripper for a few minutes. Even if you’ve already listened to this YouTube in the past, refreshing your memory is crucial here.
Now listen to Jamie’s voice as she trance channels Grace (who also likes to be called Gracie). Not only is her British accent impeccable, the voice is that of a more matronly woman rather than Jamie’s high-pitched girlie voice. (Erik often complains about that.)
Since this is not a video, I also need to point out that midway through the recording my sister, Laura, and I break down when Gracie describes us as survivors who have chosen a life full of hardship. At that point she and I fall into each other’s arms and begin to sob. We have had lives that have been full of more grief, more tragedy and more suffering than most people know. Especially Laura. I’ve never shared the particulars with any of you. Then, on Gracie’s cue, the entire room of my newfound friends came to give us hugs. A giant ball of hugs. Words cannot possibly express the feelings coursing through that room and through my heart. Please click on the link below so that the mp3 will download to your desktop. Listen and be forever changed.

This conversation with Gracie had another effect. It removed that 1% doubt that that my lifelong skepticism created. Gone forever. Even the seemly indisputable pranks and physical manifestations were not capable of erasing that tiny, nagging bit of uncertainty. Jamie is clearly trance channeling an entity from the spirit world. That means she’s really trance channeling Erik. Those hugs are real. Erik is alive. Alive. You’re deceased loved ones are alive also. They’re not gone forever. They’re not. I still cry with joy, and I want you to as well.
