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…
It’s All About Channeling
Great news, peeps! The Channeling Erik Mediums have created their own website, and it’s very elegant. The mediums on this page are very gifted and reasonable, some even doing readings for free. If you’re interested in talking to Erik, your guides or a deceased loved one, check it out. Click HERE. It’s still very stormy here…
Channeling Luciano Pavarotti, Part 2
Yesterday wasn’t the best of days. I reflected on my situation, as all of us do from time to time, and my thoughts drifted towards what I do here on the blog. It’s very tough, because every minute that I work on it is a reminder that Erik is dead. Over and over I think, ‘He’s…
Channeling Luciano Pavarotti, Part One
Although I don’t listen to opera that much now, there was a time when I was younger that it was a part of my daily ritual. La Boheme and fresh pasta. Tosca and fresh pasta. Carmen and fresh pasta. (We bought a pasta machine around that time. Man, did it get a workout. I’m so sick of…
Channeling Grace Kelly
When I was young, I was always fascinated by and enamored with Grace Kelly. She was so elegant, eloquent and beautiful inside and out. As you will see, she still is. Erik: Who’s next? Me: Oh, okay. You’re eager! Jamie: He’s our “go to boy.” Me: I guess so! Well, let me give you a…
Channeling Paul Newman
One of the reasons I chose my youngest son, Lukas’s name is because of the movie “Cool Hand Luke.” I fell in love with those gorgeous blue eyes! I wish I hadn’t made this interview so short. Having over 400 celebrities on the list makes me feel the need to rush. I don’t know if I’ll…
Channeling Lucille Ball
When I was a kid, I loved watching the TV show, “I Love Lucy.” She was so funny and the chemistry between her and Ethel and her and Desi was very special. One of the most memorable segments was when Ethel and she worked at an assembly plant of a candy factory. Me: Erik, can…
Channeling John Wayne
I fell in love with John Wayne’s movies ever since watching True Grit and The Green Berets. Both made me cry, and I like movies that have that effect on me. I sob every time I watch Bambi’s mother die. Recently I was wondering why. All of my life I’ve felt emotionally numb. In other…
Channeling Etta James
This next celebrity is one of my favorite singers even though she was well before my time. (Finally, someone who is.) My son, Lukas, has recently stumbled upon the wonderful Ella Fitzgerald, and loves her voice. It’s so velvety smooth. Because of that, my interest has been rekindled. I remember, when I was no more than 12…
Channeling John Ritter
As promised, here’s the first celebrity post in a long, long time and the last post before I leave. Bon Voyage, peeps! I’m going to miss you. Good thing we’re in the more than capable hands of Michael Hulse! Thanks, Mikie-poo. Remember, no emails or Facebook messages until I get back, please! 🙂 Me: I…
Channeling Billie Holiday
For the last three days, I’ve been in roofer hell. Starting at 6:00 AM, here comes the relentless hammering. But, because our roof is 22 years old and leaking like a sieve, it was time. So bad was the leaking that two of our bathroom ceilings are destroyed. Rune has had to pierce one of…
Channeling Gilda Radner
For most of my adulthood, every Saturday at 10:00 PM was a special time. We rarely missed an episode of Saturday Night Live. Sometimes, we’d drag an old TV out to the driveway, hook it up to a long, orange, industrial strength extension cord, plunk down our ratty old lawn chairs and watch it with our…
Channeling Aaliyah Haughton
I want you guys to know that I haven’t forgotten about this most recent Ask Erik submission. I’ll put the submitter’s names in a bowl and randomly draw one, then on the 10th we’ll channel Erik’s response. It’ll take time to transcribe, so please be patient! Also, I plan to post Part Three of the…
The eBoard Demonstration
I’m pleased to announce that I was finally able to get the eBoard demo videos to upload onto YouTube. Sorry it’s in three parts. My husband kept stopping the recording, thinking we were finished when we weren’t. Here’s something important: Many of you have expressed concern that the eBoard will invite evil spirits in. This…
Spiritual Amnesia
Throughout the course of this blog, I’ve received some criticism over the celebrity interviews, even though their intent was to glean spiritual lessons from these spirits. I feel that I soul is a soul whether they’re a prostitute, an actress, a carpenter, a composer, a religious icon, or a pop culture celebrity, and we can…
Channeling James Dean, Part Two
Enjoy part two of our interview with Mister Cool, himself. Me: So you shared some of your thoughts during your transition. Can you describe your surroundings upon crossing? Wait, actually, when you were standing over your body, you may not have realized you had crossed over. Can you tell me your thoughts when you realized…
Channeling Jerry Garcia, Part One
At the request of one of the CE family members, I’d like to pull Jerry out from the long celebrity interview queue. I know it’s breaking the “no cuts” rule, but Mama Elisa does have special powers, right? I think you’re really going to enjoy this. If so, enter your 2013 Bloggies vote. If you…
Channeling Notorious B.I.G., Part Two
Just an F.Y.I.: Jamie will be posting the cost for the Channeling Erik Weekend in Atlanta soon so that you’ll be able to sign up. An extra plus: if you want to receive your Reiki I certification, you can do so by coming one day early. On top of that, Jamie and Erik have many…
Channeling George Harrison, Part Two
Enjoy Part Two of our interview of one of my favorite Beatles! Me: Can you tell me a bit more about your actual transition? George: You know it wasn’t that long ago. The biggest suffering was in the treatment. It wasn’t the cancer or the actual passing. Jamie: So it WAS cancer. George: Yeah. It…
Channeling Christa McAuliffe, Part Three
Before we begin the final installment of the interview with Christa, I’d like to ask you all to please extend your love and prayers to CE family member Doug who is now undergoing cardiac bypass. Unfortunately he has extensive atherosclerotic disease so he’ll need as many prayers as we can possibly give him now during…
Channeling Christa McAuliffe, Part One
I’m sure you all remember the shuttle Challenger tragedy. In fact, most of us remember exactly where we were and what we were doing at the time, kind of like when J.F.K. and Michael Jackson died. I’ll never forget that news clip of Christa and her comrades in their orange suits waving for the cameras…
Channeling George Carlin, Part Three
I thought you all would love this email from our lovely long term blog member, Tracy. After she saw the painting Eric Grbich did of my Erik, she commissioned him to paint one of her own son, Adam. The finished masterpiece was no less stunning. If anyone would like his email address, let me know….
Channeling George Carlin, Part One
I’d like to ask if anyone here is having trouble with DISQUS. We were having a problem with the upgrade that came along with the WordPress upgrade, so we switched back to the previous version, but I’m still not getting any comments. Usually I gets tons! Has anyone posted comments that have not come through?…
Channeling Steve Irwin, Part One
Me: Let’s interview Steve Irwin! I always loved that man! So full of life! Jamie: Steve Irwin. Who’s Steve Irwin? I know that name. Me: That’s the Crocodile Man or something. Jamie (to Erik): Okay, yeah. You can go get him. We have enough time? Erik: Yeah, because he talks fast. Me: Oh god, that’s…
Channeling Karen Carpenter, Part Three
Enjoy the last installment, and have a wonderful weekend, y’all! Me: Do you have any regrets other than not completing the lesson? Karen: I just think that’s encouragement to come back and do it again. Me: You can always try summer school! Karen: Regrets? I think I regret not being aware of my choices. I…
