A Psychic Channel’s Story of Healing, Service, and Divine Guidance

Dedicated to my cousin, Mitch Richling.

As a psychic channel and empath, I’ve learned that staying grounded and centered is essential in a chaotic world. What began as a simple moment of reflection turned into one of the most powerful spiritual experiences of my life, receiving channeled messages from Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy.

As someone who tries to use these gifts to help others. I have become obsessed with news.

Bad news is on every station. I feel it around me. I needed to ply myself away from television and you-tube and limit the time I spend that feeds into a sense of helplessness. It is important especially if you are an empath. It is important to keep positive ideas and do things that you love so that you are not carrying anger or defeat or anything that is being broadcast. I began to see this as a time to step up. I asked my guides and the Divine to help me use my gifts, to be of more service. In Judaism, the Hebrew words, He nani, are translated to mean, “I am here.” I am here, use me to serve more, to do more to make a difference.

From Fear to Faith: Choosing Light Over Anger

I decided that being upset or angry does not change the world, it just adds more

negative energy into the world. It is hard to get out of my head. It is hard when I see the

abuse of power and the suffering it causes and my own fear.

The Sacred Bath: A Psychic Channel’s Divine Messages

My morning ritual is to take a bath to loosen my stiff muscles. The bath has become the

place where I channel. Visions and Information come, visions about myself and friends

or the novel I am writing. About two weeks ago, as I relaxed in the tub, I had the most

unexpected vision. I saw the Washington D.C. statue of President Lincoln. While I have

been channeling messages for over twenty years, I have never received any messages

from Presidents, politicians or any famous people except once. Someone’s son came

through with John Lennon, because the boy had been a musician, but the message did

not come from John Lennon. It came from the boy to his mother. As I lingered in the

bath, trying to analyze why on earth I saw the statue of President Lincoln, the vision did

not leave.

Channeling Abraham Lincoln: The First Message

I got out of the tub, dressed and went to my computer. Thoughts which were not mine filled my head. I began to type.

Afterwards, I read what I had typed. The words were not mine. But I questioned them.

How do I know it is real? I am a medium, but I never asked for President Lincoln to

come through. Who am I to get this vision? It took a while to decide that my vision meant that it happened for a reason.

When I read what I had typed, the language was not mine. I sat staring at the page on

my computer, stunned by what had happened, not knowing what to do. I called a

psychic channel friend for guidance. First, I asked, “Is this real?” She used her pendulum, and I took out mine. We both got a “yes.” I was honored, but I questioned, “Why me?” A

friend suggested that it was because I was honest and I would not let this go to my

head. I do not believe that I am special. I have channeled for years in card readings,

healing and writing my novel. I wrote questions for my guides and waited until answers

came. Now, I no longer have to wait. But it suddenly came to me that I had volunteered.

I said to spirit, “I am here.”

Channeling JFK and a Line of Spirits

After President Lincoln, I thought I was done. I wasn’t. J.F.K. came next. Again, it

started with an image. I saw his face while I bathed. I was shocked and awed. Again, I

dressed quickly and went to my computer to type his message. Again, I used my

pendulum and called my intuitive friend to check her pendulum, and we both asked

whether the channeling was authentic. We both got yes.

Clairvoyantly, I saw a line of spirits. The messages keep coming as I bathed. I began to have headaches. I asked the spirits to give me a break. I was also exhausted.

Currently, I have eleven messages. I am deciding who and how to share them to keep

myself safe. Criticism in this climate is dangerous but I believe there is a purpose to my

receiving these messages.

Reflection and Renewal: Lessons from Yom Kippur

I am writing this after listening to services for Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of Atonement.

It is the holiest day of the year. It is a time when Jews reflect upon who they are. It is the

day of pardons and forgiveness. It is a day that we ask, how can I be the best I can?

Each year, I evaluate myself. I work on what I want to change. I work on who I want to

be. Recently, I lost my cousin, Mitch. I listened to the funeral online and heard everyone

saying how much he meant to them. I listened to how he had made the world better for

family and friends. I am not young. I don’t know how much time I have left in a body.

What is it I want to do that has meaning?

Yom Kippur is a holiday of forgiveness and pardons. First, I must start by pardoning myself, pardoning myself from vows I could not keep, from vows I should never have made and for the things I could have done. It is time to make new vows, realistic vows, vows I will keep, vows that will bring me to the person I wish to be.

We are all special, with different gifts that we must use to honor them. My cousin had a gift of bringing people together. He had a gift of making people comfortable. I had asked spirit to show me what I can do. Who would be denied the wish to help others?

Becoming Who We Are Called to Be

I remember reading, “each moment of each day, we can create who we want to be.”

On this holiday, I ask, “Who do I want to be?” On this holiday, I ask, what is preventing me from being the person I say I want to be? On this holiday, I tell myself, no excuses.

Be that person, not for anyone else, but for yourself. Be the best you can whatever that

looks like.

If you can do more, just tell spirit, “I am here.” That’s all it takes to begin your own journey of divine connection.
