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…
The human experience can be rough, so some of us long for a break. 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…
I just finished Part One of my channeling session with Raylene for the February Monthly Q&A. I plan on posting it as a YouTube on Saturday. Then on Tuesday, we’ll finish the other questions, which will probably be published as two YouTubes, Wednesday and Saturday. The problem is that Raylene couldn’t control the number of…
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…
I’m sorry that their was no post yesterday. I thought I’d take the holiday off. I hope you all took the time to feel thankful for the great Martin Luther King, Jr. He did so much for so many, and I look forward to interviewing him. Today’s post is about suffering. It’s very relevant given…
In order to fully grasp and get the most out of our human experience, it’s essential to understand the anatomy of our struggles and of suffering in general. Throughout this book, Erik has helped me understand what I struggle with the most, why I do and what it takes to overcome it. I also came…
In the beginning of this channeling session, I asked about the hardships one of our family friends had to endure during much of her youth. For obvious reasons, I’ve changed her name to protect her privacy. But I share this with you, because many of us struggle with adversity at some time in our lives,…
I’m reposting this because my blog crashed, and I had to restore it from a backup on the server. Unfortunately, the backup was created before I posted this. Sorry! Many of us have had a life filled with hardships and tragedies. I look back on mine and see a path littered with potholes, some the…
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,…

We have a winter storm warning here in Houston. Unbelievable. I can only imagine what you Northerners are going through! Bundle up people! It’s a great time to sit in a cozy chair, wrap yourself in a blanket, drink a mug of hot cocoa and read through the archives! Me: If you were to be…
Me: Okay, let’s ask some questions that are hopefully going to help our listeners. What advice do you have for those who are struggling? Jamie: Erik’s sits off to my right. Erik: What kind of struggle are we talking about? Me (laughing): Well, I thought you’d be able to help me with that one! They…
As the holidays approach, some of us long for a break. 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….
Me: Okay, here’s a long one from a reader. Let me see if I can encapsulate it. “One thing that I’ve yet to understand through this now is the time we look inside for everything, into the heart, as externally is where the things we cannot control are. So, if our focus is internally, in…
Mark your calendars for Erik’s interview (through Robert) on Following Your Bliss radio program Sunday beginning at 3:30 CST, 4:00 EST, 2:30 PST.

What insights do you think you gained given your new…
Blog member, Wanda, sent me this heart-wrenching video about 7th grader, Jonah Mowry, who has been tormented by his peers since second grade. His wisdom shines through his pain like a graceful pair of dancers, causing me to wonder if he’s here more to teach than to learn. I’ve invited him to join our loving…
Here’s some advice from Erik that comes from a channeling session this past summer: Jamie: You know, your boy and I have been having some talks. Me: Oh really? Tell me, tell me! Jamie: Yeah, I got two emails asking him to hold back on the F#@*#s. And I said ‘I told you! I told…
Remember what Jon Benet said about the fact that we’d see more examples of “spiritualness” and love among animals? Here’s amazing evidence of that! Now, enjoy the last part of our interview with Jon Benet Ramsey. Me: Okay, was there anything you were here to learn or to teach? Jon Benet: I was there on…
Michelle and I have had our first session with our trauma and EMDR therapist last week. In that hour and a half, we both shared our war stories and filled out all sorts of assessment forms. We don’t start the actual EMDR until the third session, but already, I’ve encountered an amazing epiphany. I would…
At long last, I’ve been urged (strongly) to seek treatment for my PTSD. Okay, we’re talking major arm twisting here, because I’m a typical mom who feels that everyone else’s needs must be addressed and nurtured before I tend to my own wounds. So, with five kids, a husband and friends (including cyber friends), I…
Me: Erik, there are so many people who are struggling in so many ways. Some of us grieve over a loss, some of us have trouble with a relationship, raising kids, making ends meet, dealing with bosses or co-workers, and even figuring out why we’re here in the first place. My god, the list of…
Many of you have found your way to this oasis of hope by following a trail of tears. Many of you grieve. Many of you have suffered under the heavy burden of loss. You find camaraderie here. Understanding. Unity. Friendship. Compassion. But it doesn’t replace the son, daughter, lover, friend or sibling that is no…
Here’s part two of River’s message. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Know that I think about you, my cyber family, every day. I love you! To refresh your memory, River answers a question about his previous beliefs: River: I pretty much dabbled in spiritualism. I really felt that there was a spirit…
First, Erik and I would like to thank you all for the outpouring of birthday well wishes. Personally, I think that when we all cross over, we owe him a bunch of birthday spankings, and “one to grow on”! Many of the posts that follow will be focused on insight from various celebrities, but I…
Nikki asked Jason if he could channel more information from Erik about what lies in store for my family and me that’s evoking so much sadness. Here’s Erik’s message to us: No no, it was just meant for mom and i. I can be an emotional guy. People have always thought spirits are some how…
