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…
My Daughter’s Post
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.
How Spirits Manifest
Good news, I’m out of my robe! (grin) I want to thank all of you for the soothing words and insight you provided when I was feeling so low yesterday. I have days like that every once in a while, but I rarely write about them because I know I’m not alone when in comes…
The Lifecycle of a Soul
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…
Expectation, Focus and Intent
I want to thank everyone for sending Lukas all of the wonderful healing energy. He says he feels so much better. It’s hard to pry much more information out of him since he’s your typical teenage guy, so we’ll see how he responds in the long run. I’d also like to thank everyone for sending love…
Dimes from Heaven
Today, Michelle and I went on errands together. In the both the driver’s and passenger’s door of her car, there’s a place to hold a drink and other things, as is the case in most cars. Since we were going to the bank first, I put my two checks to be deposited, my VERY coveted…
More on Animal Souls
I had the most amazing lucid dreams last night. It was one of those dreams where you think you’re actually awake. Maybe I was, I don’t know. I knew my eyes were closed, but I could still “see” in spite of that fact. I thought that was pretty weird. So, with eyes shut, I saw…
Erik’s Eulogies
Don’t know why I feel compelled to share these, but here are the eulogies that were said at Erik’s memorial service in the order they were delivered. A lot of pain was felt by all that day. I guess I just wanted to share what an amazing soul our Erik was and is. Sigh. Kristina’s…
Erik’s Magic Trick
I have a lot of very cool things to share with you today. First and foremost, ROBERT HAS BEEN UNLEASHED ON THE UNSUSPECTING PUBLIC!!!! YAY!! He’s here with me at home, no doubt being driven crazy by the happy chaos. My sister and brother-in-law are coming to help us celebrate! As if this wasn’t good…
How We Evolve After Death
I had trouble keeping Erik on track with this question. What I really wanted to find out is how our senses, emotions and self-concept changes while we’re in the afterlife, but for some reason, I couldn’t get him to go much beyond the comparison of how these differ before and after death. He was a…
Numerical Sequences, 2012 and Manifestations
I would like to thank all of you for sending love and healing thoughts to my father. Hopefully, when we go back for all the tests next week, we’ll find out that he’s the healthiest 90 year-old on the planet. Here’s some pictures of him both young and recent. Isn’t he dashing? He looks like…
The Medhus Soul Group
Channeling Transcript Me: When our soul group was in the “between lives” phase just before this life, Erik, what did we want to accomplish? How were we to help each other? What were our individual and collective destinies? I know what your destiny was, but what other key elements were involved in creating that spiritual…
More on Children and Dreams
Channeling Transcript Me: Okay, let’s talk about children. You know, some of them die so early, so young, that they don’t really have time to be indoctrinated with a specific belief system. So, what is their death experience like? Oh, and what is the afterlife like for them too? Erik: Well, Mom, everyone has a…
Sex, TV and Who’s on Top
Before we begin, I’d like to update everyone on the state of grief in the family. Erik’s siblings are finally allowing themselves to feel anger and sorrow. For the last year, most of them have taken comfort in the attitude, “He’s in a better place and no longer suffering. I’m happy for him,” but now,…
Rallying Around Chitra
Thanks everyone for rooting for my mother. She did very well, despite her age (82) undergoing a colectomy, a reversal of her colostomy with reanastamosis. I will spend much of the week in the hospital, so I hope you’re patient with the paucity of new transcriptions. Again, take the time to catch up or revisit…
Ask Erik: Tracy’s Question
Tracy’s Questions Dear Elisa, I think the boys have definitely hooked up because my PC crashed this afternoon and I had to wait for my husband, Neil to come home from work so I could use his laptop. Someone is messing around with my electrics! Shortly after Adam’s death I visited a medium as part…
Ask Erik: Chitra’s Question
As are most questions from bereaved mothers, this one was difficult for me. Her grief and sorrow stirred up my own. In this particular case, Chitra’s daughter, Lavanya, came forward with Erik and did most of her own speaking. I’m not sure why some spirits have Erik or the medium translate and why others prefer…
Kim on Jason and Robert
In an effort to get through as many of the Ask Erik questions as possible for those of you who have been waiting so patiently for the word for word transcript, I skipped an earlier section of my session with Kim O’Neill from September 21st. As I return to that segment, I see that it…
Ask Erik: Sam’s Questions
in nearly all age groups. Sam’s story is a perfect example of this common quandary. In this case, Erik functioned more as a taxicab than a messenger in that he brought the deceased forward, but deferred to Sam’s guides for insight. Sam’s Questions Hello Elisa, My wife has found Channeling Erik to be quite profound…
A Jason-Erik-Robert Sandwich
As always, I have a little preamble. Sorry. As you all know, it’s been a tough time of the year for me. Lot’s of “firsts.” First birthday since Erik’s death, first anniversary of his death, first anniversary of his burial (today.) And of course, I’ve been expressing that grief in the blog, not only to…
Erik Describes His Death in Detail, Part One
This part of the channeling transcript was not at all easy for me. The graphic memories, the heartache, the sense of loss, it all flooded back to me like a tsunami of dread and despair. For that reason, I’ve transcribed just a portion of Erik’s description of his death. The heart can only endure so…
Ask Erik: Hannah’s Questions
Hannah’s Questions Hello Elisa! My name is Hannah. I live on XXXX and I am 43 years old. My 18 year-old nephew Miles was killed in an accident at the very beginning of 2008. I flew back out to the east coast to be with my brother Russ (Mile’s dad) right after it happened and…
Erik’s Heart
Erik always had a big heart. Even as a small child, he’d lavish everyone with love and affection. When he entered middle school, showing such love became difficult, of course. This is when he began to learn that such feelings, such behavior, leaves one’s heart vulnerable to attack. So to protect himself, he developed a…
Ask Erik: Cheryl’s Questions
Cheryl’s Questions Hi Elisa! I was so surprised and shocked to receive your quick response. Thank you! I am 54 years old and live in Indianapolis, Indiana. Joseph (father) was 73 years old when he passed away in Canton, Ohio. Lillian (sister) was 56 when she passed away in New York City. David (brother) was…
