Me: Okay, now what do I tell people when you’ve spent a lot of time here talking about how easy death usually is and how wonderful the afterlife can be? What’s to stop them from wanting to go there before it’s their time? I mean, you make a great case for dying. What can I…
A Break From Being Human
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….
Unschooling and Crime (Don’t Worry, Peeps. Unrelated.)
First off: Sorry about the no show of the photo on yesterday. I fixed it so you can go back and check it out now. Don’t worry. When you come back, this entry will still be here. Me: Erik, what do you think about unschooling, since we were just talking about education. Jamie: Wow, he…
Please Help
Here I sit in a Kroger parking lot typing this on my phone hoping my CE peeps can help me. Erik put a bullet through his brain at 1:20 P.M. almost three years ago on October 6th. Around that time, I can’t be in my house, because I imagine him sitting in that chair with…
A Breath of Fresh Air, Children, and Lemmings (WTF?)
The strangest thing has been happening to my sister and me since my mom died. Whenever I sit in the chair next to the one she used to sit in, I feel a distinctly cold spot, so cold that my calf on the right side is almost icy to the touch. Yesterday, Laura and I…
My Near Death Experience: Suicide NDE
Wow, long time blog member, Steve, sent me this incredible YouTube video series about a woman who unsuccessfully tried to commit suicide and had a near death experience. I know we’ve seen many accounts of NDEs over the months in Channeling Erik, but this one is different. So much of what this woman says mirrors…
A Message from Erik to the Channeling Erik Family
Blog member, Michael Hulse, from Bolton, UK, emailed me yesterday asking me to listen to this song by the artist, Pink. He believes Erik would have appreciated it. When I finished listening to the entire song, I felt the typical Erik goosebumps on my leg which meant a resounding YES! My eyes welled up with…
A World in Change
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I sure enjoyed a day of rest Sunday. I pretty much did nothing. Not even contemplate my navel. But I have discovered one thing in my respite: Being idle is not always easy for those of us who grieve. That empty space seems to suck up the darkness,…
The Dalai Lama on Science and Spirituality
First of all, I want to thank everyone for their warm wishes and flattering comments for my daughter, Kristina and her new husband, Houston Braly. They’re on a short honeymoon in Paris and the French Riviera where the weather is now gorgeous probably having the time of their lives. Second, I sent all of your…
Grief Mind Chatter
It’s been over two years since Erik’s death, and although my grief is not one of constant despair, every day is still a struggle. I’m wondering if those of you who still mourn the loss of a loved one experience a particular phenomenon I call “grief mind chatter.” Let me explain. Every morning when I…
The Whereabouts of Susan P.
Out of respect for the family, given the content of this post, I chose to make it nearly impossible to google Susan P’s name. Me: Okay. Susan P., you know the one who’s missing still? Erik: Yeah. Me: And her husband, Josh P. blew up himself and his adorable kids recently in the house. Is…
Human Suffering and Parallel Lives
Me: Erik, if you said that we’re never given more than we can handle—that we will only attract what we can handle. So, why do people suffer so much and some to the point of suicide? Erik: Well, what they don’t take into account is that other people also have free will and can mess…
Erik’s First Suicide Attempt
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…
Fear of Death
I don’t know why I felt hell bent for leather to ask this question of Erik. Maybe one of you can help me figure that out. Me: Now, I don’t know why I need to know this, but before you killed yourself, weren’t you a little bit afraid that there would be no afterlife? I…
The Big Erik Bang
I want to express my pride and gratitude for the Channeling Erik family for rallying in support of our dear Lynette. I’m sure you’ll continue to keep her in your prayers, sending her the healing energy she needs. I met her in Atlanta during the first CE event, and she’s such a gentle and loving…
Turning Back the Hands of TIme and Gross Feet
Me: Here’s an interesting question from a blog member: “I am curious if Erik has met or has knowledge of all the various Erik incarnations happening at the same time. Can Erik still influence the Erik that passed on in this latest incarnation?” I love that question. Can you, Erik? Can you meet and influence…
Channeling Patrick Swayze, Part One
Just one housekeeping note before I introduce my boyfriend, Patrick: The final details on both the Austin event and the two hour channeling conference call will be announced soon. Still waiting for Jamie to iron out the details! It should be no later than next week sometime before I know those details. It does look…
Let’s Help This Sweet Boy
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…
Helping Those Who Want Out
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…
Channeling Steve Jobs, Part One
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…

Overlooked April Session
Looking through my recordings, I realized that I neglected to finish transcribe the tail end of the last session in April. Wow, it’s like finding a 20 dollar bill in your coat pocket! YAY! Channeling Transcript Jamie: Erik is the only spirit I’ve channeled that razzes me all the time! Me: Oh, that’s so him….
Channeling Jimi Hendrix, Part Two
Jimi continues to describe his death: Jimi: For me, it wasn’t like a night and day thing between my life and death. It was more like this endless dance in and out of consciousness, in and out of the body, wondering, ‘Do I fight for it and stay?’ Every moment you step out of that…
Channeling John Lennon, Part Two
I’d like to thank everyone for all the love and well-wishes yesterday. You all made a difficult day easier to bear. In fact, in the channeling session this morning, Erik commented, “It was really weird having so many people think about me yesterday!” (He meant this in the nicest of ways, of course. Just the…
