Channeling Erik

Before I start sharing the transcription of this part of the last channeling session, I’d like to thank all of you for the amazing love you’ve given Erik and I. I feel this is the reason for the end of my recent dry spell in his visitations. The dreams, the physical presences, it’s all you guys making it happen. He feels your love and so do I. And when the collective vibration soars, manipulating energy becomes a piece of cake for the boy! Again, we both thank you with all of our heart and soul I love you all. You are a gift. And I feel like you are now family. Here’s some advice Erik gives me on how to best communicate with him:

Me: So, Erik, I’m always trying to find ways to communicate with you myself, you know?

Erik: Yeah.

Me: Well I’ve been trying my hand at automatic writing at the computer. I ask you questions and type whatever comes into my mind. And I’m not sure. Am I picking up on you? Can you give me any suggestions? It’s really hard to find a quiet moment in the house since we’ve been remodeling the kitchen. I know I’ll get better when things get quieter and I can sequester myself.

Erik: No. It won’t get better. No. No.

Me (sarcastically): Oh, great!

Erik: You need to talk to me when you’re in the bathtub, Mom.

Me: Okay. And also I’m trying to make a pact with you like you flicker the bathroom lights whenever you want to talk. I know that electricity is easier for spirits to work with, right? So maybe flicker the lights in the bathroom whenever you’re around and you want to say hi…like “Good Morning, Mom,” or whatever.

Erik: Hmm. I don’t really like that idea of the lights, Mom.

Me (mildly surprised): Oh! Well…

Erik: Yeah, because you’re going to have lights flickering and it won’t be me. I’d rather make you feel all goose bumpy and then you’ll know I’m there.

Me: How are you going to do that?

Erik: It’s all about working with energy. And it won’t be like you walk outside in the winter and it’s chilly and you get goose bumps. It’ll be this overwhelming goose bumpy feeling, and you’ll know it’s me.

Me: Oh, okay!

Erik: And I already talked to your guides about it, Mom so none of them are going to use it to let you know that they’re there. I like this idea cuz then you know it’s only me. It’s not gonna be something else you think is from me.

Me: Okay.

Erik: I want to talk to you while you’re taking a bath cuz that’s when your brain is most turned off. So just take a nice long bath and…Mom, Mom! You’re always thinking about five hundred different things!

Me (in a remorseful tone): I know.

Erik: Yeah, so it’s hard for me to maneuver through all you have in your head.

(I chuckle in agreement.)

Erik: You kind of stop that when you take a bath. So that’s what I recommend.

Me: That’s so true, Erik. I get channeled information all the time while I’m in the tub. I hate that, because I usually don’t have anything to write on at the time. So I have to get out sopping wet and scribble things on a Post-it. I remember running half naked from the bathroom into my office to write something down, and I almost bowled over the pest exterminator that Pappa let into the house without me knowing. He screamed even louder than I did!

Erik (totally ignoring my comment): And Mom, when we work on the book and you’re sitting in front of the computer and you’re focusing on the book, I’m going to come through to you. You’re going to be able to focus like a laser beam and hear me very clearly, very plainly.

Me: I can’t imagine what it feels like to focus like a normal person, much less a laser beam!

Erik (insistently): Mom, Mom, we haven’t gotten started on that yet! We need to! We need to! Don’t wait until you hear me like Kim does right now. You’ll feel me; you’ll get goose bumpy, and you’re going to develop the ability to hear me real, real plainly, and feel me and see me!

Me: You’re talking about the nonfiction book?

Erik: Oh, God yes. Come on, Mom, chop chop!

Kim (laughing): I see him clapping his hands really fast like he’s trying to get you going.

(I laughed, because Erik would always try to get us to hurry by clapping his hands really fast and saying, “Chop, chop!”)

Me: Okay, okay. Good, because I don’t feel motivated yet to start working on the two screenplays. It’s so out of my area of expertise.

Erik: It’ll be about my life, my death, how you felt through the process and then how you connect with me and how you have proof from me that I’m still alive in this other dimension.

Me: Oh, yeah, that reminds me, did you make the new Viking downdraft vent go up and down by itself?

Erik: Yeah, that was me saying, “Hey Pappa!”

(I found this interesting, because the vent went up and down for my husband, not me. See the previous entry about this.)

Me: And was it you turning on the faucet while Michelle was in my bathroom?

Erik: Yes.

A final note: While transcribing this from the recording just now, there were several moments when I felt strong goosebumps on my left arm. It’s as if he was sitting next to me. What’s more, these sensations came when I was NOT thinking about his goose bump comments, so every time, they came as a surprise.

  • Donna

    Now I have goosebumps :)
    When we have lunch :) I’ll tell you my bathtub channeling story. Unbelievable. Must be a good source to connect. I am so glad he mentioned that because it was what changed my life. It’s an amazing story. Go get in the tub!!!! D

      Donna! Tell me, tell me!!!

    Hello Elisa,

    It’s so interesting he choose the goose bumps to let you know Erik is with you. It’s very similar with me when I feel a spirit around me. Yea I get the goose bumps too, but I also feel this sort of tingle that runs from my head down to my waist. Sometimes down to my feet if it’s a stong/powerful spirit. And if they touch me anywhere the tingling will get stronger in that one spot. Emotions I pick up as well. Like if the said spirit is sad, I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach like I want to cry. About 4-5 months ago this one spirit, that I am almost sure was my friend Pam visiting. I got this overwhelming feeling of love, like nothing I have felt before. Tingling all over, and just crying from the intense emotion of love. I so wish I could share that experience with you. So yea, I think the idea to give you goose bumps as a sign is a very good one. Nice thinking Erik!. :)

      Stanley, I know Pam was (or is) an amazing woman. I bet she and DJ are cohorts in crime, playing together in the afterlife, chilling with you from time to time.

  • Shannon

    Elisa,

    I have a tool or two you can use to try to quiet down your brain so you can channel Erik. Would you like me to post them here or send them to your private email?

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Shanon! Oooo, post it so we can all learn!! I can’t wait to try it.

  • Nora

    “Come on, Mom, chop chop!” I know he’s being serious, but that is so funny. Especially since there’s no such thing as time where he’s at. I’m so excited for you and all the interesting things that are happening for you and that lay ahead for you. Thank you for taking us all along on this fantastic ride!

  • Alexis

    Dearest Elisa,
    I am so happy that you were able to have a such a terrific conversation with Erik. It’s also great that you have established a good time for you to quite your mind enough to successfully channel his energy. I love his ‘signal’ to you and the fact that you could feel his presence next to you as you wrote; excellent news, indeed!
    I agree with Erik about getting your book started; I can feel how healing this will be for you and how beneficial it will be for all those who WILL be helped by your message of LOVE. I believe that your healing abilities, compassion and desire to selflessly share your families experience, will contribute much needed hope and help to many people.
    Sending you much love, always.

    …ps…perhaps you could get a small tape recorder to use for your soakin’ in the tub while channeling erik sessions…no soggy sticky notes… nor flashing the maintenance guy…:-)

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Good idea, Alexis. ;-) )) (By the way, I’ve never been cleaner since I got this information. I’m a white wrinkled prune. My wrinkles are wrinkling.)

  • sherene ruiz

    Hello Elisa, regards from the Philippines…I just want you to know that I read your blog religiously and will continue to do so. Send our regards to Erik, hopefully he will find time to check our dear Lolo Rey ( I know he’s a busy guy ). Take Care.

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Sherene! I miss hearing from you!! I’ll remind Erik to hook up with Lolo Rey. They’re probably getting into all sorts of trouble up there already. Erik is quite the prankster.

  • Ingrid

    Wow, that’s amazing, Elisa! I get the bathtub thing- my mind turns off then too. I also feel very open when I’m in nature, just sitting in a park and looking at the trees. I feel like we as humans have such a strong connection to nature. It feels like home to me when I am in the middle of it. Will try working on my own channeling abilities there! xoxo

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Hey Ingrid! I’m asking your questions tomorrow. Expect an email late in the day. ;-)

  • skoshi

    Hi, E. You haven’t heard from me before. I have been reading the blog a while and fascinated with the discussions about energy, yours and the nation’s. I’m a Reiki master. You should not feel depleted when channeling. Reiki masters do not use their own energy. We’re energized after meditating or doing Reiki. WE aren’t doing Reiki. We’re calling forth (using) universal energy to do its work. You might benefit by consulting a Reiki master near you. Really, this shouldn’t tire you. Reiki Masters who have arthritis in their hands when they start practicing Reiki are healed themselves over time by the wonderful flow of energy they’re channeling.

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Skoshi, that’s so amazing. Actually, one of my sister’s best friends is into Reiki. I’ll ask her. What does it take to become a Reiki Master? It’s so fascinating!

  • skoshi

    One more thought: you have too much to do to NOT meditate. Once your mind is calm, EVERYTHING will be easier. If routine duties come up while meditating, make a to do list before you sit down to meditate so you can let those things go. If “history” comes up while you’re meditating, that’s your guides’ way of telling you you have unfinished business. Merely say “I love you; I’m sorry; please forgive me; thank you” whether or not it is something YOU did or something someone did to you. It is part of your history and you had a hand in creating it. These things take years to get cleaned out, so don’t be discouraged. In between, wonderful bits of insight will get through. If stuff that should be on your to do list keeps coming through even though you’ve made a list, just say to yourself, this time is for me, let the thought float away, and go back to meditating. Don’t beat yourself up. There’s NO such thing as a bad meditation session. They all contain valuable information about yourself and the way the universe works. Love to you, Erik, and the rest in your circle. OUR circle.

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Yes, Skoshi, we are one circle now…family. I love you!

  • Nate

    I agree with Skoshi’s comment on meditation. I think tending to the mind will only help your channeling abilities. Also, just like we take care of our bodies, we need to take care of our mind. This is why it’s so wonderful that Erik will contact you while you’re in the bathtub. I’m guessing that this is a form of meditation for you. A place you can go to ‘escape’ and literally ‘just be’ for some time.

    I can’t wait to hear about some more experiences with the goosebumps. That is just too cool and such a lovely and wonderful way for Erik to contact you on such a personal level.

  • skoshi

    Hi, E. Reiki Masters pass the ability along. But I believe if a person has no access to a Reiki Master and they are spiritually ready, the Universe will get the job done. I believe we are all evolving…those of us who are incarnate evolving physically and spiritually, and those not incarnate, like Erik, evolving spiritually. I think we all have the ability to channel and do Reiki, but we have to quiet the mind enough to hear our hearts…and soul. Being in the bath or doing yoga or walking in nature often puts us in that place.

  • skoshi

    Meditating has been proven by research to have physical and emotional benefits. Even more importantly, for our purposes, it quiets the mind enough so that we can “hear” information from our hearts (our souls, our guides, angels, our loved ones who are no longer incarnate). Those who have no interest in spiritual progress mediate for the physical and emotional benefits. They may find themselves having unintentionally gained spiritually too!

  • Shannon

    Hi Elisa,

    Okay, this takes longer to type and read than to actually do, but I’ll post it for the readers. If you want to do a recorded version and post it for others to listen and follow along, I’d be happy to do that with you as well. Here we go:

    First, find a quiet space and set aside some time for yourself (the tub is perfect!). Inhale deeply through your nose and exhale to the count of 4 (do this at least twice).

    Grounding: On the last exhale, imagine a cord/cable/rope/line/beam of light running down your spine, through your tailbone and into the earth, anchoring at the core. **I like to run energy through the grounding line and radiate healing love energy into the soil of the earth, giving gratitude to Mother Earth for facilitating my grounding.

    Balancing: Tap 3 times on your collarbone in the center saying “Come into balance”. Do the same on your heart-point (just left of center of your chest) and again 3-4 inches below either breast.

    Run the energy: Now that you’re grounded and balanced (these only take seconds once you do it a couple times), imagine your crown chakra (top of the head) opening like a blooming flower, glowing with white light. Next, visualize Mother God and Father God (or the God of your choosing) pouring a golden, opalescent liquid that’s thick like honey into your crown, filling your head slowly while absorbing/melting all the thoughts, sounds, words, images, feelings, sensations. Let this happen as slowly as you need in order to clear everything buzzing around in your head.

    Elisa, when you have completely filled your head with this golden liquid, ask Erik if this is an easier space for him to communicate with you. You can also ask your guides/angels or other loved ones to come forward to communicate with you.

    Elisa, if this doesn’t help then let me know and we’ll try something else. You need to start that book!!! It’s as important for you as it is for Erik.

    Love you lots,

    Shannon

      Shannon, this is powerful yet elegantly simple. I’ve copied and pasted it into a new document and printed it out so I can give it a try tonight! I love you lots, too, Shannon. You’ve shared so much with us and I’m grateful.

  • Tom

    Well, this is interesting, and it goes hand-in-hand with something that I saw from a program call “Ghost Lab”
    I don’t know how much weight or value you put into such things and programs, but one of the conclusions that the team came up with is that most ‘paranormal’(ghost etc) activity usually occurred around places where there was some source of water. It seems that water is a great conductor of energy, not just electricity, so the closer a water source, the more possible paranormal activity.
    Erik telling you to “take a bath’ so he can better communicate with you, as far as I can tell is using the energy conduit of the water to help, as well as the fact that you can be more relaxed and quiet and shut off all the ‘noise’ in your head, so you can concentrate and be more receptive to his messages etc.
    I just thought it was interesting that of all things to use, he simply said “go take a bath” LOL.
    It will be interesting to see where this goes and how well it works.

    Keep up the great work and thanks for posting and keeping on keeping on.

      Tom, I swear, you always bring up things that make me think, “I never thought of that!” I bet water is very important spiritually. Look how many people retire to homes by the sea, vacation by water, etc. Plus, what about the “Aquatic Ape Theory” where some believe we’ve evolved from aquatic environments. Have you ever read “The Descent of Woman?” It explains our nostrils pointing downwards, why we are bipedal, why we have no hair (comparably) why we have webbed toes and fingers and tons more. That, of course, might explain the physical bodies lure to water, but the spiritual affinity? Water is a special molecule unlike any other.

  • Tracy Lamont

    I’ve heard that water is a very good energy receptor. A friend of mine is quite receptive to spirit and she says things always come to her in the shower.
    I know where Erik is coming from with the whole goosebump theory. When Adam is nearby, my whole head and shoulders begin to tingle, particularly the back of my head as though someone is running their fingers through my hair. He has always come to me in this way and I know it’s him.
    When I go to bed at night, he comes and kisses me on the cheek. I know this because I FEEL it!
    I’m sure you have lots of similar experiences with Erik.

    • http://drmedhus.com Elisa

      Yes, Tracy! And I’ve never felt those kinds of things before Erik died. It’s a weird feeling. Plus I’m learning to recognize Erik’s energy when it occurs. It’s very comforting. Erik and Adam are with us just as they have been. They just aren’t wearing the costumes they once wore. That’s the only difference.
