Dear Reader, Although Erik sometimes paints a rosy picture of the afterlife, time and time again he stresses that suicide is not the answer to one’s problems. If you struggle, please understand that the information in my blog and my books is no substitute for professional help. Please click here for a list of resources…

An Eclectic Mix of Erik Goodness

Elisa MedhusSeptember 20, 2016in Bipolar disease, Children, Death of a Child, Money, Suicide, The Shift

I finally returned from my trip late last night. I’m glad to be home because, although it was a fantastic trip, it’s the longest I’ve been away from home. I missed my kids, my grandkids and Bella so much. First, we went to Norway to visit Rune’s relatives. Then, after five days, we went to…

More on Mental Illness and Developmental Disorders

It’s so beautiful in Houston. In fact, the energy here around Lake Travis is so wonderful that it might be on my short list for a move in 3-5 years (along with the Carolinas.) The air is much drier than in Houston, although it does get hot, but there’s less concrete and more nature here….

Elephants and Angels

GuestJuly 18, 2015in Erik Encounters

The very first time I read a post from the Channeling Erik Blog, I had to stop and find out what had happened to him. I was just seeing what Dr. Medhus’ Blog was all about. When I read that he had been bipolar, much like myself, I had a different reaction than most, I…

Suicide and Loss, Part One

Elisa MedhusJune 12, 2015in Death, Suicide

I heard the webinar class with Jamie had a big turnout and was great. I’m glad you guys enjoyed it. It’s amazing how some of the things she teaches can have such a powerful effect on our lives. Today, I’m busy as cr*#. I’m being interviewed on a radio show today at 5:00 PM and I…

Bipolar Disorder

Elisa MedhusOctober 27, 2014in Bipolar disease, Mental illness

Bipolar disease is often a terminal one, which was the case with Erik. He knows all too well about this disease and explains its spiritual basis. Me: Let’s talk about something you suffered with in life, Erik. Bipolar disorder. Some are aggressive and some are not, so it’d be great if you could cover both….

Aggressive Bipolars and Money

Elisa MedhusAugust 6, 2012in Bipolar disease, Channeling, Mental illness, Money

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I had a great time doing absolutely nothing. Ah! Today, Erik is going to talk about two subjects: the aggressive bipolar person and money. An eclectic duo. Truth is, both pieces aren’t very long, and I didn’t want you to feel short-changed. As I review the entries over…

As I sit here next to my mother who is hours away from her transition, I was overcome with the urge to reach out to you all with a post. When I saw what subject was next in queue, I realized that synchronicity was at work, as always. You see, my mother suffers from dementia…

Dissociative Identity Disorder and More on Bipolar Disease

Elisa MedhusApril 19, 2012in Bipolar disease, Channeling, Mental illness

Because Erik was plagued by a host of “mental illnesses” while here on the earthly plane, he has so much to say about them. Some are not disorders at all, but rather society’s warped perspective of an individuals ability to connect with Source or absorb the energy of others around them. Let’s see what he…

Erik’s First Suicide Attempt

Elisa MedhusMarch 6, 2012in Bipolar disease, Channeling, Death, Death of a Child, Grief, Indigo, Mental illness, Near Death Experiences, Suicide

Many of you expressed an interest in knowing more about Erik, including his suicide attempt several months prior to his eventual death. As hard as it is for me to re-visit the experience, perhaps the details will give clarity to the pain from which he suffered. In the wee hours of the morning, Erik came…

I hope everyone had a wonderful and restful weekend and is prepared for a week of Channeling Erik insight, camaraderie and inspiration. I’m very excited to announce that Erik was finally able to find Steve Jobs Friday, despite his recent passing. You’ll notice that Job’s ability to focus his communication clearly and control his choice…

Please be sure to read my eldest daughter’s poignant entry in her world-renown blog, PrettyShinySparkly. Although her blog usually covers all things light and beautiful, today’s was all about her heartrending experience two years ago. http://t.co/vSavrHEQ Be sure to read the comments too.

Losing a Loved One

To lose a loved one is pure agony. When you lose a child, your grief is compounded exponentially. When you lose that child to suicide, your grief is multiplied to unbearable levels. When that suicide is violent, you become a POW in a private war, tortured mercilessly day after day. In my desire to show…

Thanks to Nancy, here are some fascinating videos about the spiritual side of bipolar disease. Sometimes I wonder how much of mental illness is society’s interpretation of “normal” as well as society’s rejection and disdain. Bipolar Mania or Spiritual Enlightenment? Why Bipolar People Commit Suicide As a surprise Mother’s Day present for myself, I just…

Here, again, I asked some of the same questions posed through Jeannie, this time, through Jamie. It seems like Erik has learned a bit more about each subject. After this channeling segment, please read a request by our dear family member, Stanley. We need those frickin’ laser beams to help Sandra heal! Also, I’d like…

Today, I offer the transcription of the last part of my hour-long session with Erik through Jeannie Barnes. Erik tag teams with the angelic being by his side. Enjoy.

I may have mentioned this before, but after the death of Erik’s ex-girlfriend, he took an overdose of Provigil, a medication sometimes used for ADHD. This is the topic of today’s entry. It brings back a lot of sad memories of how much he suffered in life as well as a realization that he was…

Channeling Transcript Me: Okay, a lot of people have asked this one, Erik. It’s about possession. Can spirits possess the bodies of humans? I’m talking about demonic or non-demonic spirits. Erik (chuckling): Is this the part of the book when you need to warn people whether they should read forward or not? Jamie and I…

I know many of you watch in pain as the years go by after losing a loved one—one year, two years, five years, ten year, and on and on. If you’re like me, part of you has gained a new spiritual understanding of death and of the soul’s immortality. Yet, despite the comforting fact that…

Channeling Transcript Me: What about vaccines, Erik? A lot of people are concerned about whether they might be linked to autism, diabetes, autoimmune disease, etc. Erik: It’s not the vaccine so much. It’s the amount of vaccines, the number and the volume that you put into a little body all at once. These react with…

This entry, we’re only just beginning to explore the spiritual rationale for various disorders and diseases. As he says somewhere below, Erik promises to continue to find out more. Evidently, it’s not a simple “one cause for one disease” scenario. Each disease or disorder can have a variety of spiritual origins. That said, Erik has…

Here’s a great quote for all the closed-minded skeptics out there: “All truth passes through three stages: first, it is ridiculed; next it is violently attacked; finally, it is held to be self-evident.”–Arthur Schopenhauer Sorry about the repetition, but I wanted to ask Erik some of the same questions through another channel to see if…

After Erik shared the amazing abilities the unfettered souls have, I felt pretty impotent. Since a single thought can’t put a gourmet meal on the table this evening, I guess I’ll have to slave in the kitchen instead. Actually, we’re having leftovers, so I’m off the hook for one day. But since I can’t think…
