Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast DAM
paranormal podcast network, where we offer you podcasts of the
supernatural and the unexplained. Get ready now for Shades of
the Afterlife with Sandra Champlain.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Welcome to our podcast. Please be aware the thoughts and
opinions expressed by the host are their thoughts and opinions
only and do not reflect those of iHeartMedia, iHeartRadio, Coast
to Coast AM, employees of Premiere Networks, or their sponsors

(00:40):
your own research and discover the subject matter for yourself.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I'm Sandra Champlain. For over twenty five years, I've been
on a journey to prove the existence of life after death.
On each episode, we'll discuss the reasons we now know
that our loved ones have survived physical death, and so
will we. Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. It's been
(01:11):
a rather emotional few days for yours truly. A good
friend of our community just passed away after battling a
long illness. She and her husband have been attending our
online events like our Sunday Gathering, listening to the podcast
episodes for over four years. Sue, I know you're listening.
This episode is an honor of you. As we know,
(01:33):
there's been some terrible things happening in the world, the conflicts, hurricanes,
natural disasters, suffering, So I'm here to remind us all
today that the afterlife is real. Our loved ones do
go on and we will see them again. Yesterday I
spent some time with a lovely new friend named Jennifer Foley,
who wrote a book called My Ghost with the Most,
(01:56):
a widow's story to reconnection across the Veil. We'll hear
from Jennifer a little later in this episode, but her
title My Ghost with the Most reminded me that some
people call me the Hostess with the Mostest. But it
also reminded me that we have our ghost with the most.
If you're a longtime listener of Shades of the Afterlife,
(02:18):
you've heard about trance, mediumship, you've heard words from medium
Scott Milligan and mister Eric who speaks through Scott. Yesterday
we had one of our in the arms of Eternity events.
Scott led us into a nice meditation type sitting where
we sent healing to the world, and then at some
(02:38):
point Scott's eyes closed, he became quiet, and in time
another voice came out of Scott's mouth. This is mister Eric,
filled with inspiration, working through Scott for over twenty seven years.
You'll hear from him today too. The word ghost, though,
is a little unsettling for me. I know what it means.
(03:00):
Reminds me of Halloween and the spooky stuff, so I
had to look it up. The word ghost is an
old English word that dates back before the twelfth century.
The concept of a ghost, of course, is based on
the idea that a person's spirit continues to exist after
their death. What I didn't know is that the origin
of many funeral rituals was to ensure that the spirits
(03:23):
of the dead, these ghosts, would not return to haunt
the living. Now we'll save that for another episode. But
there is a special time once a year that we
celebrate ghosts. So I've been digging. No pun intended on
the history of Halloween and also the Day of the Dead.
A quick history lesson Halloween has been celebrated for over
(03:45):
one thousand years. It dates back from an ancient pagan
festival that held bonfires with jack o' lanterns and costume
wearing to disguise against evil spirits, and then in the
eighth century, Pope Gregory declared November first as All Saints Day,
and the evening before became All Hallow's Eve Hallow means Saint.
(04:10):
In time this was shortened to Halloween. They had the
tradition of dressing as saints and angels, and eventually this
became our modern day costumes such as superheroes, witches, beetlejuice,
and whatever else is popular out there now. Trick or
treating began as poor people going door to door offering
to pray for people's souls in exchange for pastries called
(04:33):
soul cakes. The other holiday celebrated beginning of November is
the Day of the Dead, which is a three thousand
year old tradition in Latin American cultures. It's gained a
lot of popularity lately, no doubt, because Disney did a
film named Coco. If you haven't watched it, I highly
(04:54):
recommend it. Day of the Dead is actually held on
two days, November first and second, to celebrate loved ones
returning to Earth. November first honors deceased children, and November
two our adult loved ones. In this culture, the dead
are considered to be very much alive. They are still
(05:15):
members of our community and families, and mourning is thought
to be disrespectful. Altars are built inside homes, stores, and cemeteries,
adorned with family photos, gifts, flowers, candles, and food. In fact,
candies and toys are sold decorated with skulls and skeletons,
happy reminders that are loved ones still live on. How
(05:38):
many of us get excited around Halloween? But do we
let it remind us of the afterlife? No matter what
time of year you're listening to this, whatever celebrating, you
do know that your deceased loved ones are celebrating right
along with you. Let's head over now to our ghost
(05:58):
with the most our dear friend and mister Eric. And
here is his answer when someone asked him yesterday, what
do we see immediately after death?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Well, my friend, may I say this to you. The
moment your eyes open in our world, you will see
the endless sunshine. That is why so many of you
who come to the near but do not enter the
premises of our world see the light through the tunnel.
(06:31):
This is the light that does not hurt the eyes
to stare at it, and at the center of this light,
there will be someone that you recognize, the one that
your heart thumps for. This individual, be it your family,
(06:51):
or be a member of your family through animals, will
be there to greet you. And the moment of the gasp,
then others will be seen. The darkness that surrounds the
light will fade away. Some people wish that they wake
(07:13):
from their sleep, so as they awake in our world,
they are in the bed and the family surround the bed.
You will be rested. The pain that once was is
no more, and therefore you can take a deeper breath
(07:35):
without any pain whatsoever. You'll instantly recognize everyone, for love
has always been felt. Some people will arrive in the
golden shores and they will hear the oceans of our world,
(07:57):
and as they stand in the golden shores, they will
see their family waving to them and walking towards them.
Some others choose, through their religious understandings, who enter the
temples of our world, and the moment that the temple
(08:19):
doors open, their families will be standing at the altar.
I witness only recently a friend that came to our
side of life that was crippled by pain and suffering,
(08:40):
was met by her cats. But then as she bowed
to her cats, her mother and father stood there, and
as they embraced one another, standing directly behind them was
every one else. You have to understand, my friends, that
(09:06):
our world is not governed by time. Time is an
illusion created by man. So this embrace may only be
a moment to us that can be a number of
days to you of its warm embrace, you forget why
(09:35):
you shed tears in the former world, for you realize
in that death that is being described to you is
a lie. That nothing can truly die. It is only
the body, and it can also be the condition that
(09:59):
takes the body into ash or back to the earth. So,
my friends, it is down to the individual. You speak
of being crowded or find warmth from this. But would
(10:19):
one agree that those who have gone before you become
a part of light. Light takes up no room at all.
There will always be space for everyone you have loved
and continue to love. For there will come a time,
(10:42):
my friend, and it will be you who will be
at the center of their gaze. But then there will
be a time that you will stand at the great
portals to welcome the family that you left behind who
have now lived their life, slow down at death and
(11:05):
enter the world that you will embrace them whatever you
wish to see. If it is part of your motivation
to aid you from one world to the next, that
will become your reality. But those who fear death, who
(11:27):
believe they are going to the piers of hell, we
will intervene and they will not see that, for that
fear will be taken from them to aid in their
migration from one to another. So, my, then, every individual
(11:52):
will have their own unique experience, but there is always
a common threat. They see the light. It is always
our way to encourage you to take away the fear
from death. For did you fay your birth, you will
(12:16):
not remember it. You neither will remember your death. It
is something that may be understood when you come back
to Commune because the media arms of today are conditioned
to find how you die, when others should be taught
(12:38):
to share how they live. If that is pleasing, let
us move along.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Mister Eric will answer a question about pets in the
afterlife when we come back, and we'll also hear from
author Jennifer Foley, author of the book My Ghost with
the most and the woman Eric was talking about who
was met by the cats. That's our dear friend Sue.
We'll be right back. You're listening to Shades of the
Afterlife on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal

Com, the best afterlife information you can get. Well, you're
all love Shades of the Afterlife with Sandra Champlain.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain.
Next we'll hear another answer from mister Eric through the
trance mediumship of Scott Milligan. Now, when we're together on
our in the arms of eternity. I'm the only one
that can see the questions typed in the Q and
a box. Scott's eyes are closed. Mister Eric very often
(14:35):
knows the questions that are going to be asked before
I voice them. Sometimes, like on yesterday's session, we had
over one hundred people attending and we had over forty questions.
We only have a limited amount of time, and people
often wonder how I pick the questions that will be asked.
(14:56):
I pick them based on the greatest need. You'll underst
stand when I ask this question from a mother, she said,
Dear Sandra, could you please ask Eric to talk about
pets that have crossed over? How can we know that
they are with us and that they are sending us messages.
My daughter lost her beloved dog, who passed on his
(15:18):
sixteenth birthday. She is so terribly devastated, to the extent
that all she can think of is to follow him
and be with him. They were never parted for one
single day. She is listening with me right now, but
hasn't got the strength to ask herself thank you.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Then we will tread very carefully the pain my dear
you are feeling now is the result of true love.
If someone is feeling as you are, now, you have
known true love. It took a moment for one to sit.
(16:02):
For when I walked upon your earth, I treated animals
appallingly because I was taught I am the master and
I must be obeyed. But when I came to our
side of life, I came to accept that the light
(16:24):
that was in the very thing I was trying to
control was the same light within me. It just took
a different form. For an animal shows great compassion for
in your modern world, you may choose not to sit
(16:45):
with your mother why you are being fed, But the
animal will choose to sit next to you when you
wish to watch or read, or with modern technology, be
lost in your world, the animal will lay with you.
(17:09):
If you have conversations to yourself, the animal will listen.
This is true love, the one you miss today, my dear,
that may have struggled to walk, to digest, to do
(17:32):
things that it used to do, that is all gone,
my friend. But in our world the animals run and
act like children who have been given candy. But those
animals that have been loved by you will be cared
(17:54):
for by your grandparents and also others that have known you.
Your world is of time. In your short life, you
have experienced a lot. In its short life, it has
felt your love and known your company. But in our
(18:19):
world there is no time. To this animal, the separation
is only a moment, do you think, my dear, But
our world is above you or below you.
Speaker 7 (18:37):
This is not so.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Our world is a mongsture. We just moved too fast
for you to see, for your senses may not be
accustomed to our Dutch. So your animal, even though you
have said last, lost no one, my friend, or they
(19:03):
sit by your side when you go to bed. Just
recently you thought you heard, but then you said, oh,
it must be my imagination. For our world can only
move from the imagination, because that is the canvas of expression.
(19:28):
You will live. And if one can say, as young
Daniel has cheekily moved close to me, you adopted this animal.
You gave it love. You have an opportunity, when you
so wish, to give another animal, an opportunity to know
(19:54):
the love. But that is only at your own pace,
my friend. The pain you are feeling now, as Sandra
has given voice, you said you are thinking of coming
to our side of life, to follow that pain you
(20:16):
feel will go away, but it will be given to
someone else, like your mother, like others who have known
and loved you. That is a gift that no one
wishes to receive. Your animal is not next to me,
(20:38):
It is next to you. Now. We just pray that
through the language of love, you would accept that. But
I will say this to you. Nothing will throw this
animal down, Nothing will hurt this animal more. It only
(21:02):
knows love. That is why you feel the pain that
you're feeling now. But as you go to bed, as
you go to your place of rest, be aware of
the sounds around you, but also in your dreams. Be
(21:23):
aware of how you hear the snuffles of breath, and
you will know that nothing has ever left you. It
just changes form. And so to the family, I say
this to you. You are grieving together. Grief is the
(21:46):
shadow of love. You can never replace, You can only expand.
If you are feeling this pain, go to a place
where animals are abandoned and volunteer a short moment of
(22:11):
your time so you can give love as painful as
it is, but you are giving those who have been
abandoned an opportunity to fall in love with you, and
know that by your side there's the one you miss,
(22:35):
encouraging you to smile. Sund my dear, anything I say
will never be pleasing when one has tears in their eyes.
And know this the love you have will always be.
And when your life has run its course, when you
(23:00):
yourself find romance and be a person that travels the world,
when you are old and lay in a bed sweetly,
will you dream and be woken by the snuffling sound,
(23:23):
and together you will be again. Sandra might dear never
please him, but let us move along.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
We'll hear more from mister Eric in our final segment together,
talking about the uncertainty in the world and what we
can each do. Next, I'd like to introduce you to
Jennifer Foley and hear her story and why she, with
the help of her deceased husband, wrote the book My
Ghost with the Most, a widow's story to reconnection across
(23:56):
the Veil.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
I am in South Carolina, but I'm basically right outside
of Charlotte. I've kind of always been interested in the afterlife,
but never really had much reason to care until I
had a lot of reason to go pretty deep into it.
I had come out of a fairly long marriage, and
after that spent some time, you know, kind of self healing,
and then went back to the dating journey and met
(24:20):
my husband and we dated for a while. Things moved
extraordinarily quick, both outside our character. We're both very left brained, tight,
analytical logistic people, and he had some things going on
that just was really deep. A lot of on dealt
with depression and PTSD that wasn't properly diagnosed till much
(24:41):
later in life, and he ended up taking his life
unfortunately in twenty twenty two. That's, of course, a very
tragic experience all in itself, but through that process, it's
just been a world wind of events that have unfolded,
and I realized that I could hear him, and so
we have essentially continued our journey. We basically just continue
(25:05):
our marriage. It's shifted and it's become different in how
that looks, but we still maintain that bond of communication.
Our goal is going forward to help other people, even
know that that's possible, because I sure didn't know that
that was possible until this's happened. And then we ended
up putting our story into our memoir because he was
just giving me so much content that I hadn't really
(25:29):
heard before. That's kind of where the journey began. Well,
first of all, our condolence is with you. We send
lots of love.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
What is your.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
Husband's name, Chris or Christopher?
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Okay, I'm sure he's a part of this interview as well.
Speaker 7 (25:42):
Definitely.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
So you had an interest in the afterlife kind of before, yep,
and so then this happens. What kind of things started
happening that you couldn't deny that he's still around? So
it started relatively quickly.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
I knew the day that we had my husband's funeral
that there had to be a way for me to
connect to him. I knew that I needed to talk
to him. I just wasn't sure how I was going
to go about doing that. I started joining groups, I
started researching mediums that had good reviews, all these kinds
of things.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
We need to take a quick break, and I promise
we'll pick up right where we left off. You're listening
to Shades of the Afterlife on the iHeartRadio and Coast
to Coast AM Paranormal podcast Network.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
Hey everyone, it's the Wizard of Weird Joshua pe Warren
and now here's more Shades of the Afterlife.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sanders Champlain.
We're with Jennifer Foley, author of the book My Ghost
with the Most, a widow's story to reconnection across the Veil.
I just asked Jennifer what kind of things started happening
that she knew that her husband is still alive, So it.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
Started relatively quickly. I knew the day that we had
my husband's funeral that there had to be a way
for me to connect to him. I knew that I
needed to talk to him. I just wasn't sure how
I was going to go about doing that. I started
joining groups, I started researching mediums that had good reviews,
all these kinds of things. But as that kind of unraveled,
(28:14):
it would be like little things. I remember one day
I would go to the mailbox, which is across the
street from our house, and I would hear, you look
cute in that blue shirt as I'm like putting the
key in the and I would just pause and look down,
like why would I say that? To myself? It was
sexually kind of like my voice, but with his syntax
(28:35):
sort of overlaid, and I was like, why would I
say that? In these insines kept happening. I went to
Walmart and prior to his passing, he had gotten me
an orchid that had stayed on my counter. We had
gotten in a fight at the time, and I'd ended
up throwing it away. So fast forward to after he passed.
I was a Walmart and I left the checkout laid
and there's a wall of orchids, and I heard, you
(28:57):
should get an orchid.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I ord, why would I want to orcid?
Speaker 7 (29:02):
It just almost seemed absurd in a white I went
home and it kept building in my head. I went
back and ended up buying the orchid. But these things
kept happening, Like I would go in the bathroom and
I'd have a grief spell and just be sobbing with tears,
kind of get it together, and I'd be looking in
the mirror and I would literally say to myself, you
look like crap. We don't always say kind things to ourselfs, unfortunately,
(29:25):
And I immediately heard.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
You're beautiful, and I was like, why why would.
Speaker 7 (29:29):
I say this stuff? It just it didn't make sense
to me. Then I started having my own medium sessions.
It didn't really matter who I went to. It didn't
matter whether they were located west coast, east coast, across
the pond. They didn't know us, they didn't know our
history anything. And he would always mention in some form
or fashion, my wife hears me, she just doesn't think
(29:52):
she does. And that happened at least three different times
in a row, across three different mediums, where at that
point I had to sit back and be like, Okay,
I need to start assessing my thoughts because something's happening.
I just don't quite understand it yet. I'd never meditated
today in my entire life. Before my husband passed away.
(30:14):
I was willing to do anything. If you told me
that it could help, I probably have tried it. And
I started doing meditations, you know, short ones. I don't
have time to sit there all day. And took about
three months of me trying to meditate, right, but I
was like, we're just going to commit to this however
it turns out. It turns out about three months in
I had my first what I would quote an experience
(30:37):
with him where we were walking on the beach and
he handed me the seashell and he told me strength
comes from the inside. And that was the first time
I felt like I'd had an experience where he had
handed me something and it was so impactful. I didn't
really know what he was talking about, but I even
wrote a note when I came out of it, just
so I could reflect on it. Well. Fast forward about
(31:00):
three weeks after that. One of the mediums that I
deal with is primarily clear audience, where she can kind
of hear him really well, and she goes, He's showing
me a CE show and it looks like a clam
show and he's talking about something about strength being inside
of it. And I almost peed my pants at that
point because here I am thinking, like, you know, like
(31:21):
it feels kind of like a dream, but I guess
I was with him. Something happened, but I don't know what. Then,
when the medium verified it, I didn't know whether I
needed to call a scientific journal the news station, like
what do you do with this? This woman just validated
an experience that I only had inside my mind, like
a third party validated something that didn't even happen in
(31:44):
the physical realm. My left brain wanted to explode at
that point, just into a million pieces. And he's done
that on numerous occasions to where it's just been so overwhelming.
I'm not here to convince people to believe or not believe,
but I personally have had so much experience that, even
coming from a left brain side myself, it would almost
(32:05):
be unrealistic for me to not believe that he is
very much a part of my life and with me.
That's such good news.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
I want to ask you about meditation, yeah, because people
are like, what exactly did she do?
Speaker 7 (32:18):
Yeah? I tried a bunch of different methods, but honestly,
I tend to find my own way with things, and
that's what I recommend to most people. Take what you
get from various people and meld it into your olt.
I had downloaded an app that has binural beats in it,
but some apps just are a little bit on the
pricey side. And because I felt invested in this app
and I spent the money, I was like, you're going
(32:40):
to sit here and do this, and I personally hated it,
to be honest with you. Right out the gate. It
was like weird sounds and sometimes they threw an animal
sound in there. It was just this whole weird thing.
But I was like, we're committing to this. I call
it kind of brain training. But at some point, I
think my mind just gave up and was like, this
is just what we're doing. We're sitting here for the
(33:02):
ten minutes and whatever happens happens. And since that point
we have pretty much been connecting almost daily in that fashion.
I generally say his name at the beginning of the
meditation to kind of create that lak. Obviously he's around,
but just to pool him to me and away we go.
And sometimes they're really epic experience. Sometimes it's just me
(33:24):
sitting on his lap crying for the whole time. But
either way, it's an experience that we get to engage
and essentially create new memories.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
With powerful words. And I agree with you that it's
not about the app you use and taking that time
to be in the present moment, however you want to
call it, even walking meditation, being so present without the
mind chatter and doing something to kind of strengthen that muscle,
because yeah, you want to think about grocery lists and everything,
but just committing like this is what I'm going to
(33:54):
do for in ten minutes. And your loved ones are
loved ones. They want us to know that they're with us.
If I can ask, because I know he must have
experienced much depression and unsettled things within his own mind
in order to depart the way he did. Has he
been able to share with you things to either apologize
(34:17):
or explain, And you don't have to get into personal
things you don't. But from his side, I can imagine
that all that he's left with really is pure love
and he can see life now from a whole different perspective.
Speaker 7 (34:30):
Yeah, it's honestly been life changing from both hand and
myself so while he was here, a lot of people
were not aware. I was, of course, as his wife.
He kind of kept that to himself. So he looks
like this just outgoing perfect guy, and he is in
a sense, but he had so much turmoil within, and
he was doing all the right things. He was on medication,
(34:51):
he was doing DMR therapy, he had a psychologist, all
of the things that you're told to do, and unfortunately,
through a series of behavioral events, just kind of spiraled
with him mentally. So there's been a lot of healing
on both sides. But one of the first readings that
I had after he passed, I got the most epic
apology that I think probably one could get, and he
(35:13):
since then just completely evolved into this absolutely amazing spirit.
He's literally known as the ghost with the most indifferent
spiritual communities. But a lot of that he was saying
is that nothing could really make him feel comfortable in
his own skin, and now that he's there, he's still
all the good parts of him. He's extremely funny, he's
(35:35):
extremely charismatic. He sends me hilarious signs, all kinds of things,
But you can see that layer of just mental torment
kind of stripped away, but he's had to really work
through that on that side, and I think our forgiveness
on this side has really allowed him to release a
lot of the stuff that he crossed with and he's
(35:57):
been able to clear all of that out where he
is just such a high vibration now and just really
pouring into myself, our family, people that I associate with
have been able to hear him communicate with He's come
to my friends in dreams who aren't even medios. He's
all over.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
He's literally the ghost with them us. I love that
you call him the ghost with the most that is
so happy. It truly is.
Speaker 7 (36:23):
Yeah, he's come through with such evidence. I've even had
sessions where they can only see my face on some
of these zooms. He has even told them what color
pants I had on in real time, and I even
have it documented. He's talking about blue something with blue pants,
Like who wears blue pants? Anyway? I happen to be
going to work out that day and have these bright
(36:44):
blue royal blue spandex laggings on.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
She like, you have blue pants on.
Speaker 7 (36:48):
I don't know why he's talking about theirs. I know
what's real, and he's with me but there's always that
piece that his evidence is so strong sometimes that I
almost don't even know what to do with it. So
he's told them where the doors are in my house.
He's recited notes back and birthday cards that no one
else has read anywhere. Ever, once we got their book done,
(37:10):
we just went on like a one day little beach thing,
just to take a breather. Right, the weather was like
terrible and I almost canceled it, and the whole drive
there on cry and it's like pouring, like please make
the weather sunny. For two hours I got there, the
clouds were as black as night, Like we're just gonna
sit outside in the rain, then that's what we're gonna do.
Those clouds shifted all the way the sun came out
(37:32):
for two hours. And had a session a few weeks
after that, and he's like, I was so happy you
when I even helped.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
The weather for you. I was like, so, what kind
of things can we do to connect with our loved ones?
Speaker 7 (37:45):
So while meditation's great, I definitely don't limit it to that.
And this is some of the things that we talk about,
which I'm sure you're familiar with with the brain wave states,
but anything where you're sort of in that relaxed, monotonous state.
So we've had great experience just walking and sometimes I'll
just wear my ears, but I won't necessarily even have
anything playing. I think a key thing is to just
engage with them. And this is the hard part because
(38:07):
we feel like we're pretending in a way, but to
engage with them like they're still here. So if I'm
going out a lock, I'm talking to him, I usually
kind of initiate. I don't know how that works, because
sometimes he does initiate, but I've noticed a lot of
times I almost think they want us to initiate and
then they jump in. So it's kind of same with mediumship,
(38:28):
right like we're the ones initiating the link or the content.
So I kind of initiate and just start talking, and
I've noticed that that is when he will be immediately
there and come through really strong. So they love the car.
They really enjoy the bathroom for whatever reason, taking a bath,
being in the shower when you first wake up, when
(38:49):
you first fall asleep, really just incorporating them sort of
in the day to day, even if it's only a
few minutes, because our time is not their time. Even
if you can only spend you know, five ten minutes,
it goes a long way for them because they really
appreciate that we're carving that time out of our busy schedules.
I personally have come to really believe the issue why
(39:11):
most people don't engage or feel like they can't. They
don't hear, they don't feel they do. It's just we
are far too busy. We're everywhere doing all the things,
and our brain is going a mile a minute that
we never really slowed down enough to widen our perception,
and that's where we get stuck.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
That was Jennifer Foley, author of My Ghost with the
Most Time for a quick break and we'll be right back.

Speaker 8 (41:04):
Now here's more. Sandra on the iHeartRadio and Coast to
Ghost AM Paranormal podcast Network.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain.
In our last segment together, I'd like to play some
more words from mister Eric that I think will make
a big difference for you. With all the turmoil going
on in the world, the wars, the suffering, the politics,
the fear, the uncertainty, I asked mister Eric, how each
(41:46):
one of us are able to make a positive difference.
One of the members of our community had written to
me that her family is in the Middle East, caught
up in these wars, and when we have no money,
what can we do? Here is his answer.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
There is a number of paths that one will suggest
to you. But first of all we will talk of sweetness,
for you to give your thoughts that itself can make change.
But I also suggest that you give good thoughts, good
(42:23):
and deep love to those who start the disagreements. These
could be the leaders of the worlds, These could be
the heads of those organizations. For if you are to
give love, give it to them as medicine. That medicine
(42:44):
will dwell the sickness that builds that they wish to
become the aggressor. This love will be the healing moment,
so that the soul itself can step forward. Of a
soul does not desire war, it comes from the earthly
part of their nature. So, my friends, it is easy
(43:10):
to love the lovable, but also it is important that
you love unconditionally. Of course, those who make decisions so
wisdom seeps within them begin instead of negativity. If you
(43:30):
continue to set negativity, it will make the individual stronger,
it will bury their soul, so they make the wrong decisions. Also,
my friends, this path now is made of gravel, and
it is uneven, unsteady, and can be painful. But as
(43:54):
you have asked, I will deliver. You. Speak of those
who do not have the funds of the resources. Go
to your government and tell the government to stop aiding.
Withdraw all support, withdraw all things that aids this countries
(44:19):
or countries to function, Starve them so that these individuals
become weak. They then have to lean on each other,
and if they lean on each other, they can rise together.
You could say to me Eric, my friend, that this
(44:39):
is not a spiritual fought. But it was often said
if you make someone strong so that they can go
and kill another man, this is not helping the war.
Take away all suppot so everything runs out. Then they've
(45:01):
got nothing to fight with. They'll be too weak. And
then give them the subpot, give them the wisdom so
not only are you appeasing to the spiritual mind, you're
also aiding the physical body. If we can exhaust you,
(45:24):
you cannot fight, and therefore no one has a right
to take a life. The reason you are seeing so much,
as we have explained throughout the years, your world itself
is evolving, mankind must evolve with it. What has been
(45:49):
throughout history is war that repeats itself. There is also
false God that sit within temples and shines judges. And
if the religion states that you should go and kill
(46:13):
another man, this is a false religion. This is easy
blame for God. However you see God to be is
the sun that shines for you. It shines for everyone.
For no one is born bad. It is something they
(46:35):
grew into for what they have been given. So, my friends,
the time of change which is upon you. If you
can imagine, there is an untamed beast that has roamed
across your world has now been hunted down and cornered.
(46:58):
It is at its most aggressive. If you continue to
feed it negativity, it will become strong and overpower. It's captive.
But if you feed it love, feed it something, it
will then slowly dissolve. It will slowly change, and negativity
(47:23):
knows its days are numbered. But I have also said,
if bombs continue to fall in your countries, you will
continue to see the earth respond. You will see fire
(47:43):
rise from the earth. You will see the water run
across your land. You will fill the great winds. But
you can say, Eric, but why is it happening to
other countries. It is happening to humanity. But you also
(48:04):
could see how people who have the resources now have
to use those funds for their own countries to help
their people, so that the people of your world who
are squabbling and bickering and fighting now have to sort
(48:25):
it out by themselves. This is not my will, but
it is only an observation that I make this firm
commitment that many of my world stand with all of
you in the ring of peace, surrounding the countries, trying
(48:53):
our best. But we need your support, need your voice,
and you need to be inspired to bring light. If
the false religion is the sun, then you must turn
(49:14):
your back upon it, take away the distractions, and find
the true light. And that light is not around you,
it is within you. The temple of your God is
within you, As it was said by the language of
(49:34):
Jesus Christ. The Kingdom of God is inside of you,
not of mansions of wood and stone. Split a piece
of wood and I am there. Lift a stone and
you will find me. Go to your church that is
(49:54):
within you. It is not the symbols that you carry.
It is beyond all things. And so, my friend, even
the beggar in the street can rise to inspire. So
I say to you all in the simplistic way, don't
(50:18):
fight fire with negativity. Send love to those who make decisions,
and hopefully they are inspired by your love to then
make the right decisions. To see what they are doing
is a harm in their own progression, but insulting the
(50:39):
natural law that no one has the right to end
life in a matress or in the vindictive or whatever
capacity we wish for you to live. There was a
man that came to our world who survived the two wars.
(51:00):
He said to us all as he lectured of his life,
if I can tell the young ones today, no one
wishes to see war I own. He wished now for peace,
and that is our message for you all. Live your
(51:22):
life in peace. It will be a difficult time for
your world. We will continue to stand with you and
those who are motivated to speak on our behalf, you
will be called to serve. For the mass migration from
your world to ours has created great grief within your world.
(51:48):
And there are too many thoughts and two lesser of voices.
And that is why those who are inspired to sit
you are being called to serve. Patient no bet, a
tide of change is now.
Speaker 2 (52:06):

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I'm Sandra Champlain. For over twenty five years, I've been
on a journey to prove the existence of life after death.
On each episode, we'll discuss the reasons we now know
that our loved ones have survived physical death, and so
will we. Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. It's been
(01:11):
a rather emotional few days for yours truly. A good
friend of our community just passed away after battling a
long illness. She and her husband have been attending our
online events like our Sunday Gathering, listening to the podcast
episodes for over four years. Sue, I know you're listening.
This episode is an honor of you. As we know,
(01:33):
there's been some terrible things happening in the world, the conflicts, hurricanes,
natural disasters, suffering, So I'm here to remind us all
today that the afterlife is real. Our loved ones do
go on and we will see them again. Yesterday I
spent some time with a lovely new friend named Jennifer Foley,
who wrote a book called My Ghost with the Most,
(01:56):
a widow's story to reconnection across the Veil. We'll hear
from Jennifer a little later in this episode, but her
title My Ghost with the Most reminded me that some
people call me the Hostess with the Mostest. But it
also reminded me that we have our ghost with the most.
If you're a longtime listener of Shades of the Afterlife,
(02:18):
you've heard about trance, mediumship, you've heard words from medium
Scott Milligan and mister Eric who speaks through Scott. Yesterday
we had one of our in the arms of Eternity events.
Scott led us into a nice meditation type sitting where
we sent healing to the world, and then at some
(02:38):
point Scott's eyes closed, he became quiet, and in time
another voice came out of Scott's mouth. This is mister Eric,
filled with inspiration, working through Scott for over twenty seven years.
You'll hear from him today too. The word ghost, though,
is a little unsettling for me. I know what it means.
(03:00):
Reminds me of Halloween and the spooky stuff, so I
had to look it up. The word ghost is an
old English word that dates back before the twelfth century.
The concept of a ghost, of course, is based on
the idea that a person's spirit continues to exist after
their death. What I didn't know is that the origin
of many funeral rituals was to ensure that the spirits
(03:23):
of the dead, these ghosts, would not return to haunt
the living. Now we'll save that for another episode. But
there is a special time once a year that we
celebrate ghosts. So I've been digging. No pun intended on
the history of Halloween and also the Day of the Dead.
A quick history lesson Halloween has been celebrated for over
(03:45):
one thousand years. It dates back from an ancient pagan
festival that held bonfires with jack o' lanterns and costume
wearing to disguise against evil spirits, and then in the
eighth century, Pope Gregory declared November first as All Saints Day,
and the evening before became All Hallow's Eve Hallow means Saint.
(04:10):
In time this was shortened to Halloween. They had the
tradition of dressing as saints and angels, and eventually this
became our modern day costumes such as superheroes, witches, beetlejuice,
and whatever else is popular out there now. Trick or
treating began as poor people going door to door offering
to pray for people's souls in exchange for pastries called
(04:33):
soul cakes. The other holiday celebrated beginning of November is
the Day of the Dead, which is a three thousand
year old tradition in Latin American cultures. It's gained a
lot of popularity lately, no doubt, because Disney did a
film named Coco. If you haven't watched it, I highly
(04:54):
recommend it. Day of the Dead is actually held on
two days, November first and second, to celebrate loved ones
returning to Earth. November first honors deceased children, and November
two our adult loved ones. In this culture, the dead
are considered to be very much alive. They are still
(05:15):
members of our community and families, and mourning is thought
to be disrespectful. Altars are built inside homes, stores, and cemeteries,
adorned with family photos, gifts, flowers, candles, and food. In fact,
candies and toys are sold decorated with skulls and skeletons,
happy reminders that are loved ones still live on. How
(05:38):
many of us get excited around Halloween? But do we
let it remind us of the afterlife? No matter what
time of year you're listening to this, whatever celebrating, you
do know that your deceased loved ones are celebrating right
along with you. Let's head over now to our ghost
(05:58):
with the most our dear friend and mister Eric. And
here is his answer when someone asked him yesterday, what
do we see immediately after death?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Well, my friend, may I say this to you. The
moment your eyes open in our world, you will see
the endless sunshine. That is why so many of you
who come to the near but do not enter the
premises of our world see the light through the tunnel.
(06:31):
This is the light that does not hurt the eyes
to stare at it, and at the center of this light,
there will be someone that you recognize, the one that
your heart thumps for. This individual, be it your family,
(06:51):
or be a member of your family through animals, will
be there to greet you. And the moment of the gasp,
then others will be seen. The darkness that surrounds the
light will fade away. Some people wish that they wake
(07:13):
from their sleep, so as they awake in our world,
they are in the bed and the family surround the bed.
You will be rested. The pain that once was is
no more, and therefore you can take a deeper breath
(07:35):
without any pain whatsoever. You'll instantly recognize everyone, for love
has always been felt. Some people will arrive in the
golden shores and they will hear the oceans of our world,
(07:57):
and as they stand in the golden shores, they will
see their family waving to them and walking towards them.
Some others choose, through their religious understandings, who enter the
temples of our world, and the moment that the temple
(08:19):
doors open, their families will be standing at the altar.
I witness only recently a friend that came to our
side of life that was crippled by pain and suffering,
(08:40):
was met by her cats. But then as she bowed
to her cats, her mother and father stood there, and
as they embraced one another, standing directly behind them was
every one else. You have to understand, my friends, that
(09:06):
our world is not governed by time. Time is an
illusion created by man. So this embrace may only be
a moment to us that can be a number of
days to you of its warm embrace, you forget why
(09:35):
you shed tears in the former world, for you realize
in that death that is being described to you is
a lie. That nothing can truly die. It is only
the body, and it can also be the condition that
(09:59):
takes the body into ash or back to the earth. So,
my friends, it is down to the individual. You speak
of being crowded or find warmth from this. But would
(10:19):
one agree that those who have gone before you become
a part of light. Light takes up no room at all.
There will always be space for everyone you have loved
and continue to love. For there will come a time,
(10:42):
my friend, and it will be you who will be
at the center of their gaze. But then there will
be a time that you will stand at the great
portals to welcome the family that you left behind who
have now lived their life, slow down at death and
(11:05):
enter the world that you will embrace them whatever you
wish to see. If it is part of your motivation
to aid you from one world to the next, that
will become your reality. But those who fear death, who
(11:27):
believe they are going to the piers of hell, we
will intervene and they will not see that, for that
fear will be taken from them to aid in their
migration from one to another. So, my, then, every individual
(11:52):
will have their own unique experience, but there is always
a common threat. They see the light. It is always
our way to encourage you to take away the fear
from death. For did you fay your birth, you will
(12:16):
not remember it. You neither will remember your death. It
is something that may be understood when you come back
to Commune because the media arms of today are conditioned
to find how you die, when others should be taught
(12:38):
to share how they live. If that is pleasing, let
us move along.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Mister Eric will answer a question about pets in the
afterlife when we come back, and we'll also hear from
author Jennifer Foley, author of the book My Ghost with
the most and the woman Eric was talking about who
was met by the cats. That's our dear friend Sue.

all love Shades of the Afterlife with Sandra Champlain.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain.
Next we'll hear another answer from mister Eric through the
trance mediumship of Scott Milligan. Now, when we're together on
our in the arms of eternity. I'm the only one
that can see the questions typed in the Q and
a box. Scott's eyes are closed. Mister Eric very often
(14:35):
knows the questions that are going to be asked before
I voice them. Sometimes, like on yesterday's session, we had
over one hundred people attending and we had over forty questions.
We only have a limited amount of time, and people
often wonder how I pick the questions that will be asked.
(14:56):
I pick them based on the greatest need. You'll underst
stand when I ask this question from a mother, she said,
Dear Sandra, could you please ask Eric to talk about
pets that have crossed over? How can we know that
they are with us and that they are sending us messages.
My daughter lost her beloved dog, who passed on his
(15:18):
sixteenth birthday. She is so terribly devastated, to the extent
that all she can think of is to follow him
and be with him. They were never parted for one
single day. She is listening with me right now, but
hasn't got the strength to ask herself thank you.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Then we will tread very carefully the pain my dear
you are feeling now is the result of true love.
If someone is feeling as you are, now, you have
known true love. It took a moment for one to sit.
(16:02):
For when I walked upon your earth, I treated animals
appallingly because I was taught I am the master and
I must be obeyed. But when I came to our
side of life, I came to accept that the light
(16:24):
that was in the very thing I was trying to
control was the same light within me. It just took
a different form. For an animal shows great compassion for
in your modern world, you may choose not to sit
(16:45):
with your mother why you are being fed, But the
animal will choose to sit next to you when you
wish to watch or read, or with modern technology, be
lost in your world, the animal will lay with you.
(17:09):
If you have conversations to yourself, the animal will listen.
This is true love, the one you miss today, my dear,
that may have struggled to walk, to digest, to do
(17:32):
things that it used to do, that is all gone,
my friend. But in our world the animals run and
act like children who have been given candy. But those
animals that have been loved by you will be cared
(17:54):
for by your grandparents and also others that have known you.
Your world is of time. In your short life, you
have experienced a lot. In its short life, it has
felt your love and known your company. But in our
(18:19):
world there is no time. To this animal, the separation
is only a moment, do you think, my dear, But
our world is above you or below you.
Speaker 7 (18:37):
This is not so.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Our world is a mongsture. We just moved too fast
for you to see, for your senses may not be
accustomed to our Dutch. So your animal, even though you
have said last, lost no one, my friend, or they
(19:03):
sit by your side when you go to bed. Just
recently you thought you heard, but then you said, oh,
it must be my imagination. For our world can only
move from the imagination, because that is the canvas of expression.
(19:28):
You will live. And if one can say, as young
Daniel has cheekily moved close to me, you adopted this animal.
You gave it love. You have an opportunity, when you
so wish, to give another animal, an opportunity to know
(19:54):
the love. But that is only at your own pace,
my friend. The pain you are feeling now, as Sandra
has given voice, you said you are thinking of coming
to our side of life, to follow that pain you
(20:16):
feel will go away, but it will be given to
someone else, like your mother, like others who have known
and loved you. That is a gift that no one
wishes to receive. Your animal is not next to me,
(20:38):
It is next to you. Now. We just pray that
through the language of love, you would accept that. But
I will say this to you. Nothing will throw this
animal down, Nothing will hurt this animal more. It only
(21:02):
knows love. That is why you feel the pain that
you're feeling now. But as you go to bed, as
you go to your place of rest, be aware of
the sounds around you, but also in your dreams. Be
(21:23):
aware of how you hear the snuffles of breath, and
you will know that nothing has ever left you. It
just changes form. And so to the family, I say
this to you. You are grieving together. Grief is the
(21:46):
shadow of love. You can never replace, You can only expand.
If you are feeling this pain, go to a place
where animals are abandoned and volunteer a short moment of
(22:11):
your time so you can give love as painful as
it is, but you are giving those who have been
abandoned an opportunity to fall in love with you, and
know that by your side there's the one you miss,
(22:35):
encouraging you to smile. Sund my dear, anything I say
will never be pleasing when one has tears in their eyes.
And know this the love you have will always be.
And when your life has run its course, when you
(23:00):
yourself find romance and be a person that travels the world,
when you are old and lay in a bed sweetly,
will you dream and be woken by the snuffling sound,
(23:23):
and together you will be again. Sandra might dear never
please him, but let us move along.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
We'll hear more from mister Eric in our final segment together,
talking about the uncertainty in the world and what we
can each do. Next, I'd like to introduce you to
Jennifer Foley and hear her story and why she, with
the help of her deceased husband, wrote the book My
Ghost with the Most, a widow's story to reconnection across
(23:56):
the Veil.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
I am in South Carolina, but I'm basically right outside
of Charlotte. I've kind of always been interested in the afterlife,
but never really had much reason to care until I
had a lot of reason to go pretty deep into it.
I had come out of a fairly long marriage, and
after that spent some time, you know, kind of self healing,
and then went back to the dating journey and met
(24:20):
my husband and we dated for a while. Things moved
extraordinarily quick, both outside our character. We're both very left brained, tight,
analytical logistic people, and he had some things going on
that just was really deep. A lot of on dealt
with depression and PTSD that wasn't properly diagnosed till much
(24:41):
later in life, and he ended up taking his life
unfortunately in twenty twenty two. That's, of course, a very
tragic experience all in itself, but through that process, it's
just been a world wind of events that have unfolded,
and I realized that I could hear him, and so
we have essentially continued our journey. We basically just continue
(25:05):
our marriage. It's shifted and it's become different in how
that looks, but we still maintain that bond of communication.
Our goal is going forward to help other people, even
know that that's possible, because I sure didn't know that
that was possible until this's happened. And then we ended
up putting our story into our memoir because he was
just giving me so much content that I hadn't really
(25:29):
heard before. That's kind of where the journey began. Well,
first of all, our condolence is with you. We send
lots of love.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
What is your.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
Husband's name, Chris or Christopher?
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Okay, I'm sure he's a part of this interview as well.
Speaker 7 (25:42):
Definitely.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
So you had an interest in the afterlife kind of before, yep,
and so then this happens. What kind of things started
happening that you couldn't deny that he's still around? So
it started relatively quickly.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
I knew the day that we had my husband's funeral
that there had to be a way for me to
connect to him. I knew that I needed to talk
to him. I just wasn't sure how I was going
to go about doing that. I started joining groups, I
started researching mediums that had good reviews, all these kinds
of things.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
We need to take a quick break, and I promise
we'll pick up right where we left off. You're listening

Hey everyone, it's the Wizard of Weird Joshua pe Warren
and now here's more Shades of the Afterlife.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sanders Champlain.
We're with Jennifer Foley, author of the book My Ghost
with the Most, a widow's story to reconnection across the Veil.
I just asked Jennifer what kind of things started happening
that she knew that her husband is still alive, So it.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
Started relatively quickly. I knew the day that we had
my husband's funeral that there had to be a way
for me to connect to him. I knew that I
needed to talk to him. I just wasn't sure how
I was going to go about doing that. I started
joining groups, I started researching mediums that had good reviews,
all these kinds of things. But as that kind of unraveled,
(28:14):
it would be like little things. I remember one day
I would go to the mailbox, which is across the
street from our house, and I would hear, you look
cute in that blue shirt as I'm like putting the
key in the and I would just pause and look down,
like why would I say that? To myself? It was
sexually kind of like my voice, but with his syntax
(28:35):
sort of overlaid, and I was like, why would I
say that? In these insines kept happening. I went to
Walmart and prior to his passing, he had gotten me
an orchid that had stayed on my counter. We had
gotten in a fight at the time, and I'd ended
up throwing it away. So fast forward to after he passed.
I was a Walmart and I left the checkout laid
and there's a wall of orchids, and I heard, you
(28:57):
should get an orchid.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I ord, why would I want to orcid?
Speaker 7 (29:02):
It just almost seemed absurd in a white I went
home and it kept building in my head. I went
back and ended up buying the orchid. But these things
kept happening, Like I would go in the bathroom and
I'd have a grief spell and just be sobbing with tears,
kind of get it together, and I'd be looking in
the mirror and I would literally say to myself, you
look like crap. We don't always say kind things to ourselfs, unfortunately,
(29:25):
And I immediately heard.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
You're beautiful, and I was like, why why would.
Speaker 7 (29:29):
I say this stuff? It just it didn't make sense
to me. Then I started having my own medium sessions.
It didn't really matter who I went to. It didn't
matter whether they were located west coast, east coast, across
the pond. They didn't know us, they didn't know our
history anything. And he would always mention in some form
or fashion, my wife hears me, she just doesn't think
(29:52):
she does. And that happened at least three different times
in a row, across three different mediums, where at that
point I had to sit back and be like, Okay,
I need to start assessing my thoughts because something's happening.
I just don't quite understand it yet. I'd never meditated
today in my entire life. Before my husband passed away.
(30:14):
I was willing to do anything. If you told me
that it could help, I probably have tried it. And
I started doing meditations, you know, short ones. I don't
have time to sit there all day. And took about
three months of me trying to meditate, right, but I
was like, we're just going to commit to this however
it turns out. It turns out about three months in
I had my first what I would quote an experience
(30:37):
with him where we were walking on the beach and
he handed me the seashell and he told me strength
comes from the inside. And that was the first time
I felt like I'd had an experience where he had
handed me something and it was so impactful. I didn't
really know what he was talking about, but I even
wrote a note when I came out of it, just
so I could reflect on it. Well. Fast forward about
(31:00):
three weeks after that. One of the mediums that I
deal with is primarily clear audience, where she can kind
of hear him really well, and she goes, He's showing
me a CE show and it looks like a clam
show and he's talking about something about strength being inside
of it. And I almost peed my pants at that
point because here I am thinking, like, you know, like
(31:21):
it feels kind of like a dream, but I guess
I was with him. Something happened, but I don't know what. Then,
when the medium verified it, I didn't know whether I
needed to call a scientific journal the news station, like
what do you do with this? This woman just validated
an experience that I only had inside my mind, like
a third party validated something that didn't even happen in
(31:44):
the physical realm. My left brain wanted to explode at
that point, just into a million pieces. And he's done
that on numerous occasions to where it's just been so overwhelming.
I'm not here to convince people to believe or not believe,
but I personally have had so much experience that, even
coming from a left brain side myself, it would almost
(32:05):
be unrealistic for me to not believe that he is
very much a part of my life and with me.
That's such good news.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
I want to ask you about meditation, yeah, because people
are like, what exactly did she do?
Speaker 7 (32:18):
Yeah? I tried a bunch of different methods, but honestly,
I tend to find my own way with things, and
that's what I recommend to most people. Take what you
get from various people and meld it into your olt.
I had downloaded an app that has binural beats in it,
but some apps just are a little bit on the
pricey side. And because I felt invested in this app
and I spent the money, I was like, you're going
(32:40):
to sit here and do this, and I personally hated it,
to be honest with you. Right out the gate. It
was like weird sounds and sometimes they threw an animal
sound in there. It was just this whole weird thing.
But I was like, we're committing to this. I call
it kind of brain training. But at some point, I
think my mind just gave up and was like, this
is just what we're doing. We're sitting here for the
(33:02):
ten minutes and whatever happens happens. And since that point
we have pretty much been connecting almost daily in that fashion.
I generally say his name at the beginning of the
meditation to kind of create that lak. Obviously he's around,
but just to pool him to me and away we go.
And sometimes they're really epic experience. Sometimes it's just me
(33:24):
sitting on his lap crying for the whole time. But
either way, it's an experience that we get to engage
and essentially create new memories.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
With powerful words. And I agree with you that it's
not about the app you use and taking that time
to be in the present moment, however you want to
call it, even walking meditation, being so present without the
mind chatter and doing something to kind of strengthen that muscle,
because yeah, you want to think about grocery lists and everything,
but just committing like this is what I'm going to
(33:54):
do for in ten minutes. And your loved ones are
loved ones. They want us to know that they're with us.
If I can ask, because I know he must have
experienced much depression and unsettled things within his own mind
in order to depart the way he did. Has he
been able to share with you things to either apologize
(34:17):
or explain, And you don't have to get into personal
things you don't. But from his side, I can imagine
that all that he's left with really is pure love
and he can see life now from a whole different perspective.
Speaker 7 (34:30):
Yeah, it's honestly been life changing from both hand and
myself so while he was here, a lot of people
were not aware. I was, of course, as his wife.
He kind of kept that to himself. So he looks
like this just outgoing perfect guy, and he is in
a sense, but he had so much turmoil within, and
he was doing all the right things. He was on medication,
(34:51):
he was doing DMR therapy, he had a psychologist, all
of the things that you're told to do, and unfortunately,
through a series of behavioral events, just kind of spiraled
with him mentally. So there's been a lot of healing
on both sides. But one of the first readings that
I had after he passed, I got the most epic
apology that I think probably one could get, and he
(35:13):
since then just completely evolved into this absolutely amazing spirit.
He's literally known as the ghost with the most indifferent
spiritual communities. But a lot of that he was saying
is that nothing could really make him feel comfortable in
his own skin, and now that he's there, he's still
all the good parts of him. He's extremely funny, he's
(35:35):
extremely charismatic. He sends me hilarious signs, all kinds of things,
But you can see that layer of just mental torment
kind of stripped away, but he's had to really work
through that on that side, and I think our forgiveness
on this side has really allowed him to release a
lot of the stuff that he crossed with and he's
(35:57):
been able to clear all of that out where he
is just such a high vibration now and just really
pouring into myself, our family, people that I associate with
have been able to hear him communicate with He's come
to my friends in dreams who aren't even medios. He's
all over.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
He's literally the ghost with them us. I love that
you call him the ghost with the most that is
so happy. It truly is.
Speaker 7 (36:23):
Yeah, he's come through with such evidence. I've even had
sessions where they can only see my face on some
of these zooms. He has even told them what color
pants I had on in real time, and I even
have it documented. He's talking about blue something with blue pants,
Like who wears blue pants? Anyway? I happen to be
going to work out that day and have these bright
(36:44):
blue royal blue spandex laggings on.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
She like, you have blue pants on.
Speaker 7 (36:48):
I don't know why he's talking about theirs. I know
what's real, and he's with me but there's always that
piece that his evidence is so strong sometimes that I
almost don't even know what to do with it. So
he's told them where the doors are in my house.
He's recited notes back and birthday cards that no one
else has read anywhere. Ever, once we got their book done,
(37:10):
we just went on like a one day little beach thing,
just to take a breather. Right, the weather was like
terrible and I almost canceled it, and the whole drive
there on cry and it's like pouring, like please make
the weather sunny. For two hours I got there, the
clouds were as black as night, Like we're just gonna
sit outside in the rain, then that's what we're gonna do.
Those clouds shifted all the way the sun came out
(37:32):
for two hours. And had a session a few weeks
after that, and he's like, I was so happy you
when I even helped.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
The weather for you. I was like, so, what kind
of things can we do to connect with our loved ones?
Speaker 7 (37:45):
So while meditation's great, I definitely don't limit it to that.
And this is some of the things that we talk about,
which I'm sure you're familiar with with the brain wave states,
but anything where you're sort of in that relaxed, monotonous state.
So we've had great experience just walking and sometimes I'll
just wear my ears, but I won't necessarily even have
anything playing. I think a key thing is to just
engage with them. And this is the hard part because
(38:07):
we feel like we're pretending in a way, but to
engage with them like they're still here. So if I'm
going out a lock, I'm talking to him, I usually
kind of initiate. I don't know how that works, because
sometimes he does initiate, but I've noticed a lot of
times I almost think they want us to initiate and
then they jump in. So it's kind of same with mediumship,
(38:28):
right like we're the ones initiating the link or the content.
So I kind of initiate and just start talking, and
I've noticed that that is when he will be immediately
there and come through really strong. So they love the car.
They really enjoy the bathroom for whatever reason, taking a bath,
being in the shower when you first wake up, when
(38:49):
you first fall asleep, really just incorporating them sort of
in the day to day, even if it's only a
few minutes, because our time is not their time. Even
if you can only spend you know, five ten minutes,
it goes a long way for them because they really
appreciate that we're carving that time out of our busy schedules.
I personally have come to really believe the issue why
(39:11):
most people don't engage or feel like they can't. They
don't hear, they don't feel they do. It's just we
are far too busy. We're everywhere doing all the things,
and our brain is going a mile a minute that
we never really slowed down enough to widen our perception,
and that's where we get stuck.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
That was Jennifer Foley, author of My Ghost with the
Most Time for a quick break and we'll be right back.

Speaker 8 (41:04):
Now here's more. Sandra on the iHeartRadio and Coast to
Ghost AM Paranormal podcast Network.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain.
In our last segment together, I'd like to play some
more words from mister Eric that I think will make
a big difference for you. With all the turmoil going
on in the world, the wars, the suffering, the politics,
the fear, the uncertainty, I asked mister Eric, how each
(41:46):
one of us are able to make a positive difference.
One of the members of our community had written to
me that her family is in the Middle East, caught
up in these wars, and when we have no money,
what can we do? Here is his answer.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
There is a number of paths that one will suggest
to you. But first of all we will talk of sweetness,
for you to give your thoughts that itself can make change.
But I also suggest that you give good thoughts, good
(42:23):
and deep love to those who start the disagreements. These
could be the leaders of the worlds, These could be
the heads of those organizations. For if you are to
give love, give it to them as medicine. That medicine
(42:44):
will dwell the sickness that builds that they wish to
become the aggressor. This love will be the healing moment,
so that the soul itself can step forward. Of a
soul does not desire war, it comes from the earthly
part of their nature. So, my friends, it is easy
(43:10):
to love the lovable, but also it is important that
you love unconditionally. Of course, those who make decisions so
wisdom seeps within them begin instead of negativity. If you
(43:30):
continue to set negativity, it will make the individual stronger,
it will bury their soul, so they make the wrong decisions. Also,
my friends, this path now is made of gravel, and
it is uneven, unsteady, and can be painful. But as
(43:54):
you have asked, I will deliver. You. Speak of those
who do not have the funds of the resources. Go
to your government and tell the government to stop aiding.
Withdraw all support, withdraw all things that aids this countries
(44:19):
or countries to function, Starve them so that these individuals
become weak. They then have to lean on each other,
and if they lean on each other, they can rise together.
You could say to me Eric, my friend, that this
(44:39):
is not a spiritual fought. But it was often said
if you make someone strong so that they can go
and kill another man, this is not helping the war.
Take away all suppot so everything runs out. Then they've
(45:01):
got nothing to fight with. They'll be too weak. And
then give them the subpot, give them the wisdom so
not only are you appeasing to the spiritual mind, you're
also aiding the physical body. If we can exhaust you,
(45:24):
you cannot fight, and therefore no one has a right
to take a life. The reason you are seeing so much,
as we have explained throughout the years, your world itself
is evolving, mankind must evolve with it. What has been
(45:49):
throughout history is war that repeats itself. There is also
false God that sit within temples and shines judges. And
if the religion states that you should go and kill
(46:13):
another man, this is a false religion. This is easy
blame for God. However you see God to be is
the sun that shines for you. It shines for everyone.
For no one is born bad. It is something they
(46:35):
grew into for what they have been given. So, my friends,
the time of change which is upon you. If you
can imagine, there is an untamed beast that has roamed
across your world has now been hunted down and cornered.
(46:58):
It is at its most aggressive. If you continue to
feed it negativity, it will become strong and overpower. It's captive.
But if you feed it love, feed it something, it
will then slowly dissolve. It will slowly change, and negativity
(47:23):
knows its days are numbered. But I have also said,
if bombs continue to fall in your countries, you will
continue to see the earth respond. You will see fire
(47:43):
rise from the earth. You will see the water run
across your land. You will fill the great winds. But
you can say, Eric, but why is it happening to
other countries. It is happening to humanity. But you also
(48:04):
could see how people who have the resources now have
to use those funds for their own countries to help
their people, so that the people of your world who
are squabbling and bickering and fighting now have to sort
(48:25):
it out by themselves. This is not my will, but
it is only an observation that I make this firm
commitment that many of my world stand with all of
you in the ring of peace, surrounding the countries, trying
(48:53):
our best. But we need your support, need your voice,
and you need to be inspired to bring light. If
the false religion is the sun, then you must turn
(49:14):
your back upon it, take away the distractions, and find
the true light. And that light is not around you,
it is within you. The temple of your God is
within you, As it was said by the language of
(49:34):
Jesus Christ. The Kingdom of God is inside of you,
not of mansions of wood and stone. Split a piece
of wood and I am there. Lift a stone and
you will find me. Go to your church that is
(49:54):
within you. It is not the symbols that you carry.
It is beyond all things. And so, my friend, even
the beggar in the street can rise to inspire. So
I say to you all in the simplistic way, don't
(50:18):
fight fire with negativity. Send love to those who make decisions,
and hopefully they are inspired by your love to then
make the right decisions. To see what they are doing
is a harm in their own progression, but insulting the
(50:39):
natural law that no one has the right to end
life in a matress or in the vindictive or whatever
capacity we wish for you to live. There was a
man that came to our world who survived the two wars.
(51:00):
He said to us all as he lectured of his life,
if I can tell the young ones today, no one
wishes to see war I own. He wished now for peace,
and that is our message for you all. Live your
(51:22):
life in peace. It will be a difficult time for
your world. We will continue to stand with you and
those who are motivated to speak on our behalf, you
will be called to serve. For the mass migration from
your world to ours has created great grief within your world.
(51:48):
And there are too many thoughts and two lesser of voices.
And that is why those who are inspired to sit
you are being called to serve. Patient no bet, a
tide of change is now.
Speaker 2 (52:06):

friend Scott Milligan who sat right there with his eyes
closed the whole time. You can join us on a

(52:49):
the world right now. There's a lot of good information,
even about fear and ego and those kind of things.
I want to leave you with one thought. Before you speak,
let your words pass through three gates. Is it true?
Is it necessary? And is it kind? Remember you are
(53:13):
