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 be a bit more descriptive for your mom?
Me. chuckling: That was never a strong point of his.
Erik, shrugging again: Just typical teenage shit! You get together a …
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 comparison. Erik discusses this further with me in my May 13th channeling session:
Me: Erik, I know you say I’m supposed to write some books and …
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 rescue them, to wrap my arms around them and whisper in their ear that everything will be alright. Mama will make it all better. As …
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 why my grief seems so deep and why my life still feels so empty without my son. I think it’s a “mother thing.” When you …
Last time I channeled Erik through psychic medium, Kim O’Neill, I asked him a question that seems to cause a great deal of concern to people the world over. Does the year 2012 mark the end of the world as predicted by the Mayans? With the world economy in historic distress, with Iran and North Korea threatening the West with nuclear attack, with the United States losing a grip on its superpower status, we do seem to be racing through …
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 life, please watch this first. It might just change your mind.
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 death and the intimate mother-son relationship that lives on in the face of tragedy, it gives that illusion of strength. I assure you all, I …
I really enjoy watching Erik wield his newfound wisdom to help others. I have my next channeling session in a couple of days and already have several Ask Erik submissions, along with my own personal questions. Here’s the last one from a woman living across the pond.
Irene’s question:
Hello Erik:
I would like to know what questions I should be asking in my life. Do you have any insight on this?
My question is purely about what questions I should be asking in …
And now for the next question presented to Erik through psychic medium, Kim O’Neill. Please note that I’ve obscured the last name for privacy issues.
Tom’s “Ask Erik” submission:
Hi Elisa,
Stanley is a friend of mine and back in February, he emailed me a link to your blog here. At the time I thought it was an odd thing to email, and I even asked him why he sent it, and he really didn’t know other than he got it and upon …
Mother’s Day looms in the near future like a dark specter taunting me. I feel so conflicted. On the one hand, I should be rejoicing that day. After all, I do have four wonderful children still here with me on the earthly plane. On the other hand, this is the first Mother’s Day without Erik here in the physical. There will be no card with his chicken scratch handwriting on it. There will be no lukewarm coffee or burnt toast …
