You know, I rarely talk about my grief over Erik’s death. In part, that’s because I’ve learned that we can continue to have a relationship, and of course, we do, but as a mother, I still miss the physical. From time to time, including lately, grief will raise its ugly head for a while. Sometimes,…
How My Son Came to me from the Afterlife
I thought I’d share this link as a separate post because today’s earlier one had so many announcements. I didn’t want it to be buried. Check it out HERE. It’s pretty much my whole story with a lot of the evidence that set me on the path to healing. I’m so blessed to know that he’s…
The Way We Grieve, Part Two
Today, Kim and I had an amazing session. In it, Erik spoke about why some people can’t achieve and maintain happiness and how to do so. He also talked about why we humans control, how guiding is a better option and how to achieve that. In the last session, Kim trance channeled him, and it…
The Way We Grieve, Part One
I had such a great vacation with my sister and brother-in-law. There’s so much nature in the state of Arkansas, and I long for that after living in Houston where concrete outnumbers trees. Plus, Laura and I are really close and can talk about anything. I had been feeling a little blah about Erik and…
Thanksgiving Cometh!
As Thanksgiving approaches, I thought it’d be nice to concentrate on the concept of gratitude. I have one session on it with Jamie as Erik’s translator and another with Kim. Enjoy! Me: Hello, Jamie! Jamie: Hello! Me: Hi, Erik! I love you, sweetie pie! Erik: Hi, Mama. I love you, too. Me: I’m going to…
Spiritual Coaching with Heather Quinto
God, yesterday was a rough day. Every time I glanced at my watch I’d think, “It’s 12:45. That’s when I last spoke to Erik. Did I tell him I loved him before we left for lunch.” “Now it’s 1:10. He’s pulling the trigger. His life is over.” “It’s 1:20. I hear Maria’s blood curdling scream…
Rising Above the Struggle
I’m trying to think of another thing to “vlog” about. If there’s anything you guys want me to film, let me know. This is an old post, but for some reason, I felt compelled to publish it again. Maybe I was nudged to do so to help one of you. Me: Erik, there are so…
The Morning After I Killed Myself
A blog member sent me this today, and I thought it was so powerful that it deserved its own post. I hope it helps each of us see just how precious life and the human experience is. I wish Erik had read this when he was alive. The Morning After I Killed Myself by Meggie…
Erik on Grieving, Part Two
Wow, I sure did get a lot of positive feedback about the Chaga mushroom tea. A lot of you want to know the products I bought. Here they are: Salem Botanical Chaga Tea (cup a day) Mushroom Science Chaga capsules (two a day) Maine Chaga Face and Body Cream by My Berry Organics (morning and night)…
Erik on Grieving, Part One
I had such a great weekend at Lake LBJ. Curiously enough, we didn’t get on the lake at all. It was very hot, but bearable because it wasn’t very humid. We visited a couple of wineries for tastings and experienced some very interesting reds. The Texas Hill Country is known for its wonderful wines, both…
Suicide and Loss, Part Two
I have a question for you guys. What kind of reality TV show would you watch with Jamie, Erik and I in it? There are so many possibilities, so I want your input! Ponder that after you read Part Two of Three of the Suicide and Loss series. Me: All right. How do you know if it…
Bouncing Back, Part One
Many of you may have noticed that, on the right side of the blog, I installed a chat tool so you guys can interact with each other. This is all thanks to one of your suggestions so if you have others, let me know! I hope you enjoy it! If you seem to, I’ll keep…
Collect Call from Heaven
I forgot to tell you guys that right before I (crawled) out of bed on Mother’s Day morning, I someone tussled my hair roughly. I’m sure it was Erik wishing me a good one. No breakfast in bed, but I’ll take it. Actually–and I hope my kids don’t read this–the whole “breakfast in bed” thing…
Motherhood
First a few announcements. You will notice soon that the archives have changed. Instead of listing them by month and year, they’ll be listed by title. That will make it easier to cherry pick the posts you want to read. Also, I finally figured out how to make the Lisa Williams channeling event into an audio only YouTube…
Bittersweet Sunday
Yesterday was a brutal day. A bittersweet one. We finally cleared out all of the yellow crime scene bags (and there were a lot of them) from Erik’s closet. In a way it was a relief, but I still had to cry because now I’ve let go of the last physical part of him. I…
Erik on Grief
Many of you found the blog because the grief you were feeling. Here, Erik gives more insight for you. Me: So, Erik, do you have any suggestions for other parents on how to contact or channel their deceased children and how to deal with the grief of what will never be, the grief of a…
Grief is…
Just a reminder: Jamie is conducting a fascinating webinar January 14th, 6 PM EST. This is a must for those of you who are stuck in life. Here’s a description: Join Jamie on Wednesday, January 14 at 6:00 PM EST for a class called “New Year, New Root Chakra.” As each year comes to a…
Audie Herron
I know I said I wasn’t going to post anything until January 2nd, but I’m sorry to report that a dear friend and long time member of the Channeling Erik Facebook group has died. Audie Herron was truly a special soul. Please send your love and healing energy to him wife and the rest of his…
Sorrow
As an adult, I developed compassion for my father once I understood that the root of his anger was sadness. In many ways, he suffered from emotional neglect at the hands of a cold mother. He felt plagued living under the shadow of his world-renowned uncles and cousins, ophthalmologists who invented cataract extraction, corneal transplants…
Losing a Loved One
Now that I’m almost finished with using sessions for gathering material for the next book, I’m going to start channeling famous figures again. This time, Erik will be asking the questions because I don’t want him to be excluded from the interview. After all, it is “Channeling Erik.” I’ve randomly picked a few for you to…
Helping Our Deceased Loved Ones
Many of you, including me, have signed up for the upcoming webinar slated to take place December 17th at 6:00 PM EST. To give you a taste, here’s the first one. Since this one, Jamie has improved the audio, and the video isn’t small screen anymore. Due to another glitch, you have to move forward…
For Those Who Grieve
Oh, how well I know the pain of grief. Many of you have come to the blog because you’ve lost someone you love. It helps to know that there’s no true separation and that they’re the same, only without a body. Let’s see what Erik has to add. Me: Do you have any advice to…
Best of Erik: A Break From Being Human
This repost is about respite. A break from the grief of losing someone we love. A break from being mired in daily struggle. A break from being human. This is the first time Erik spoke to me without the need of a question prompt. He spoke with solemn passion. How timely. Erik: You know, Mom,…
Loss, Part Two
Of course I still struggle with Erik’s death. I know I haven’t written about it very much for a long time, but I do. There are things that make me cringe like gunshots on TV shows or movies. For instance, I was watching a Netflix original series called “Damages” a while back and, without warning,…
