Andrea, a member of our Channeling Erik family, graciously shared this thought-provoking information about the Akashic Records and Suicide. Many of us have lost loved ones to suicide. Some have contemplated suicide. Regardless of where you are or where you’ve been on the topic, I think you’ll find great meaning in what follows. New from…
Session with Jeannie Barnes
Here is the .mp3 file of the channeling session I had with psychic medium, Jeannie Barnes. I tried her out because her price is a reasonable $80 per hour. Unfortunately, she records on cassette tapes, so I had to convert it to a digital file. The quality is not that good, but it’s doable. You…
Erik Visits Channeling Erik Members
Thought I’d give you guys a short break from the Ask Erik transcripts to share three experiences when Erik visited blog members. As usual, most of them are typical of the prankster that he is. They are sure to make you grin. A Visit to Bec This is an amazing story, because Bec had no…
Ask Erik: Joan’s Question
I have to admit, I was a bit anxious, no, I was actually frightened, about asking this question for Joan. If the answer had been different, it would have been difficult to post, but negligent and cowardly not to. Thankfully, the answer was positive and uplifting, shining the way for a young man who is…
Ask Erik: Shelley’s Question
Last one for the night. Thanks all, for your patience. Have sweet dreams and pray for Erik and all the loved ones you’ve lost. Give a shout of praise to your guardian angels. I don’t know about you, but mine have got their work cut out for them! Shelley’s Question Thank you so much for…
Important Announcements
I plan to post a couple of Ask Erik questions today, but here’s some announcements I’d like to make. 1) One of our readers, Sherry, graciously offered me a remote Reiki session. It…Was…Awesome. As I was lying there in my hotel room relaxing, I felt gentle vibrations in different parts of my body: the right…
Ask Erik: Jodi’s Questions
Jodi’s Question I lost my older sister to a self-inflicted gun injury to her head, when I was 10. She was in her early 20’s. I believe Sandy was 22 when she died. She committed suicide in the Visalia, California area. My family has always told me I am very much like she was, and…
Erik’s Last Thoughts
I’m not sure why I feel so compelled to reconstruct every minute detail of that terrible day and why I want to know everything, and I mean everything, that was going through Erik’s mind before he died. Maybe this is normal. I have no idea, because I’ve never suffered such a horrible loss. So I’m…
Erik on Therapy and Past Lives
First of all, I would like to thank everyone for all the love you’ve showered me with. I feel so honored to have each and every one of you in my life, because you are all so wise and enlightened. Sorry for the moment of weakness and know that your encouragement has lifted me up…
Ask Erik: Gina’s Question
The next question for Erik comes from a dear friend and coworker of mine. She’s a very gentle spirit with a kind heart, so it was difficult to learn that she experienced a tragedy similar to mine. In August of 2009, her brother took his life the same way Erik did, by gunshot wound to…
Ask Erik: Essie’s Question
My heart goes out to this next woman, because she and I share similar tragedies. Both our boys took their own lives very recently at the tender age of 20. Let’s see if Erik can help console and heal Essie as he has helped me. Essie’s Question Hi Elisa, Thank you for being willing to…
Ask Erik: Dina’s Question
This next question is from a young woman who goes by the name, Dina. Dina’s Question Hello Elisa, I’m writing to inquire about your “Channeling Erik” page. I’ll start off by saying this is my very first time doing anything like this. I’ve never had a reading done, I’ve never talked to a medium, I’ve…
Teen Shit
In this part of the channeling session with Kim O’Neill, Erik discusses self-esteem issues and delivers messages for his sisters and brother. Let’s begin. Me: What, other than past life issues, really affected your self-esteem, Erik? I mean, why? What happened to you? Erik, shrugging: Just typical shit. Typical teenage shit. Kim: Erik, could you…
Future Work with Erik
In previous channeling sessions, Erik has told me that we are meant to work together on several projects: this blog, some books, a TV series and a movie. I can’t fathom this, as my energy and motivation is as low as my spirits. How low? The Marianas trench looks like the Rocky Mountain ridge by…
Suicide: To Be or Not to Be
I’ve had a number of readers submit questions to the Ask Erik column who are depressed. Many are in crisis, at a crossroads and in despair. Some are admittedly contemplating suicide. As a physician, my impulse is to help by giving them various resources and a compassionate ear. As a mother, my impulse is to…
Crisis of Faith
The last couple of months have been difficult for me. I haven’t really felt Erik’s presence for what seems like an eternity. No sounds, no signs, no smells, no nothing. This paucity of evidence along with my ever-present tendency to analyze and doubt has begun to erode my faith. Yesterday, I had an epiphany about…
Is Your Life Really That Bad?
I ran across this YouTube video. It gave me pause. Many people struggle in life. Some choose to stay and fight. Some, like my Erik, choose to give up. Oh how I wish he had seen this before he made that fateful decision. It makes me sad and angry. If you are considering ending your…
Finding Strength in the Dark Forest of Grief
Many readers have commented on how strong I am despite having just lost a son. After all, can there be any greater travesty than the death of one’s child? For me, no nightmare is as grim. The grief is still raw and fresh like an open wound. Yet since my blog explores the “upside” to…
Ask Erik: Bethany’s Question
Here is the next of several submissions to the “Ask Erik” page. As you can see, we’ve kept him very busy, but I’m sure he adores the attention. Bethany’s question: In 1996 my uncle committed suicide and my family seemed to fall apart after this. My dad has been in deep depression since, and his…
Ask Erik: Pascal’s Question
Erik has done so much to help us peons here on Earth. Oftentimes, our struggles compel us to flirt with suicide, so when Erik offers his wisdom and insight, it lights our way with hope and a newfound desire to continue our human experience, however trying and burdensome. The next several posts will include submissions…
Channeling Erik Through Felix Lee Lerma, Part Four
Before we begin with the next segment of my session with psychic medium, Felix Lerma, I’d like to make an announcement. Yesterday, I had a very short session with Kim O’Neill,, and I used that opportunity to ask some of the questions readers submitted through the “Ask Erik” page. I will post those transcripts soon….
Channeling Erik Through Felix Lerma, Part Three
I’ve been having a very hard time lately. It seems like I must work so hard to distract myself. Idle moments take me to a very dark and unhappy place. The images of what he looked like when I found his body, his blank and lifeless stare, the smell of gunpowder and blood in the…
Channeling Erik Through Felix Lerma, Part Two
And now for the anxiously awaited continuation of the channeling session with world renown psychic medium, Felix Lee Lerma. Let’s jump right it. Again, as before, Felix’s comments will be in italics and mine will be in plain text. Enjoy. Who’s Mickey or Mike? Mike? Mike is…I met two friends who also had children who…
