At the beginning of 2011, I started “channeling.” It wasn’t something I sought to do. It just sort of happened one day, in the midst of a dark, depressive period. I found myself writing down a voice that was different from my own. Its messages were always consistent. No matter what kind of mental or emotional state I happened to be in, the voice was always calm and reassuring. I found myself looking forward each day to finding out what message would turn up. And slowly, these messages brought me back to myself.
I called my unseen guides “The Prophets,” not because what I was writing down was prophetic in nature, but because I’m something of a Star Trek geek, and these higher dimensional beings — or whatever they are — remind me of the “Wormhole Aliens” in “Deep Space Nine.” Trekkers will know what I’m talking about.
The messages I receive may seem familiar to those who follow the work of Abraham, or A Course in Miracles. I have only passing personal familiarity with those works, but what little I know shows me that I haven’t hit on anything new here. For me, there’s something reassuring about knowing all of this information is out there, and that these guides will just gently, lovingly repeat their messages over and over to anyone who will hear.
I think of channeling as going to the well for water. No matter how parched and dry I may be, I always find water in this well.

do you ever wonder if these voices have a positive or negative influence ? Or inconsistent, like maybe not always the same entity/group of entities originating from ?
Please don’t take offense, I’m not knowlegable in this but that is one of the first questions that I’d like to gather evidences regarding.
I could imagine the particular vibration or whatever you are makes adjustment as to pair more easily with whatever other one you speak with so I could see it always being the familar one. I think I may have heard someone refer to this type of connection as conversing with their “familiar” actually, once.
Thanks for the great question!
I’ll tell you what I think, and then let them answer as well.
My perspective is that the messages I get are always positive and helpful. That said, at times I’ve been quite angry with these beings, because they do not always tell me what I want to hear. Their advice comes from a good place, but is often not easy to follow. I’ve never regretted following it, though — not in the long run. They’ve never led me in the wrong direction, although sometimes they’ve asked me to make some frightening, and challenging decisions.
I don’t experience them as different voices. There is one consistent voice, that has a very consistent tone and quality. It always speaks as a “we,” never an “I.”
I’ll let them explain further:
We are a collective entity that can be perceived as the “oversoul,” or “higher self” of the one who channels.
That is why we speak as a collective, for we represent a consciousness that transcends the individual at this particular location in what you perceive as three-dimensional reality. At our level of being, separateness is not possible in the sense that you experience it. Each one is part of the whole, and speaks for the whole. Because of this, the messages we generate are positive, and not harmful — for the desire or capacity to harm arises out of the experience of separateness.
While our relationship with the channeler is very intimate, we are not a “familiar,” in the sense of a spirit who gives counsel — such as a genie, or ancestral spirit. Such entities do have a kind of existence, and can, at times, be capricious, or harmful in their counsel, for they perceive themselves as separate.
Hope this helps, and please don’t hesitate to ask if you have more questions!
Who are you???? I love what you write and would love to know more about you. I’ve started to channel sometimes and am interested in your experiences of this. Do you find you can switch on the ability, or do you have to wait for them to come to you?
It’s great that you’re channeling! I firmly believe anyone can do this. I’m the practice of doing it every day, after meditating. I have to be in a fairly calm state to do it — I can’t just do it anywhere, anytime — but if I’ve meditated, I can pretty much “switch it on.” If I’m sick or rundown, I can’t do it. And I can only do it by writing in a journal. I can’t access it without a pen in my hand. Which makes sense, since I’m a writer by profession; writing is, in itself, a form of channeling. Beyond that I don’t want to get too specific about my identity, at least here on the blog. Anonymity is part of what gives me the freedom and space to do this. But I’d be happy to contact you privately!
HI. I’m a reader since a year or so. I wanted to thank you for your writings, they are, as you say, from some place higher than the 3D reality, I feel it that way, that’s why I read it.
Beautiful all them posts. 🙂
Thank you so much for your comment! It really means a lot to hear this. So glad you feel that way.
Wow, this is such a powerful site. I found it, surprisingly, through searching the quote “You don’t fix faith, River. It fixes you”.
You about me page doesn’t offer much detail on your background. I’m curious if you feel comfortable sharing… 😉
Thanks, Bailey! So pleased that you found your way here.
As for my background… I live in Los Angeles, I’m married (to someone who is incredibly supportive of the channeling!), I’m in my thirties, I’m a writer by trade, and I’ve always had a sense that there was much more going on with reality than most people seemed to want to talk about. I do prefer to remain anonymous on the blog, so that it’s not about “me” but rather the message. But I’m happy to answer any questions you might have!
Cool, what sort of writing do you do?
Screenwriting, mostly!
What a beautiful gift to discover this site today. I was searching how to “block fearful thoughts,” as some part of me knows they are not true. I’ve spent the afternoon reading thru a year of your comforting, inspiring posts and am printing out numerous pages and penning many quotes. Thank you & bless you for sharing this sacred space. Just realized scared & sacred share the same letters. Wow. I’ll be back soon, like tomorrow. Many hugs.
Thank you so much for this! Today is my birthday, and hearing this is a real gift to me. So glad that you found your way here… welcome!
Ohh it’s been your birthay! I hope you had a great day! You have influenced my life, I will be always in debt with you, so my will for you is that these voices will always be guiding you and loving you. Hope I can read you in here for many years more.
I forbot to log in, it’s me :). Hugs.
Thank you Maria!!!!!
I have lived w/fear all my life.
I came into the world in my mother’s fear.
The only times I have not been in fear is when I lived in the
illusion of habitual bad behavior/drug addiction/denial of reality.
I survived the bad behavior and drug addiction. I have been clean for 26yrs.
I am trying now to bring myself into the present moment that is true reality.
I hear the message. I just need to feel the message and believe.
I have always lived w/a healthy dose of skepticism, as “they” suggest….
so, I can not help but wonder about you.
For now, I am looking past this doubt and trying to receive the message.
I am so tired of living in the fear.
Glad that you’ve joined us! And by all means, bring your healthy skepticism to this place… if something being said here doesn’t work for you, don’t believe it. Thank you for being here, and please feel free to share or express doubt or questions anytime.
I think we’re all tired of living in fear. It’s exhausting, for one thing. That’s why I do the channeling, because the voice that comes through always counters the fearful voice. I struggle with believing and receiving as much as anyone. It’s a continual process. But I can say that I am living with much less fear now than I used to. One thing that helps me a great deal is a process called The Work, which invites you to drop your stories and judgments as a path to reducing fear. I’ve seen Byron Katie in person many times, and — in my skeptical opinion! — she’s the real deal.

“although sometimes they’ve asked me to make some frightening, and challenging decisions.”
I am very curious about this. Could you expand on this?
The “Voices” are always wanting me to make frightening and challenging decisions.
Life presents it own opportunities to make frightening and challenging decisions
without their help.
I find it interesting that all your /Their posts are in chronological order.
Nothing is categorized. Any thoughts on why you choose to do it this way.
I find, after reading post after post, that I need to limit myself to just one.
Each time I come here, I have chosen to do a random scroll and let
The Universe choose the message I need at that time.
A few months ago, I started journaling on my Kindle.
What are your thoughts on the difference in doing your writing w/pen/paper
or typing on a computer? Could you receive the messages typing as opposed to
writing?
First — thanks to “Anonymous” for the kind message about my birthday! And for sharing that these messages are meaningful for you. So happy to hear that.
Second — “justdraftn”:
Thanks for the questions!
On the “frightening and challenging choices” — these things are only frightening and challenging because they ask me to break from old patterns and behaviors, and of course there’s a lot of internal resistance to that.
There is a huge difference between the channeled voice — which always has the same grounded, loving vibe — and what they refer to as “The Voice of Fear,” which is the destructive voice we have in our heads. The voice of attack and judgment directed toward ourselves, others, and reality.
Really, to clarify, I’d say that it’s only from the perspective of the ego identity and the Voice of Fear that these choices are frightening. They may be challenging in the sense of a healthy challenge, like you’d find hiking or in a yoga class.
For example, the guides might ask me to walk away from, let’s say, a job opportunity because I’m not approaching it from an authentic place or the energy isn’t right. From a certain bill-paying perspective that’s frightening and challenging, but on the other hand, it’s the best thing I could do. Does that make sense?
I just go in chronological order because it’s easiest! No rhyme or reason to it. A friend has suggested that I maybe assemble a book of the material to publish online. If I did that, I’d do some sort of categorization and editing.
I think scrolling and seeing what the Universe selects is perfect!
For me, I can only really channel through journaling. It just accesses a different part of my consciousness, putting pen to paper. It puts me in a light trance. I’m sure it’s possible to channel typing or on a kindle. Whatever works for you, do it!
Glad I wrote you on your b-day. I’m now reading your site more slowly from the beginning & catching up on new posts too. Also wanted you to know you inspired me to start my own little blog and I borrowed the title from you (with credit): Life is Easy. I found that idea both stunning & ironic as most of my writing is rather neurotic but it’s a journey, right? Channel on…
Oh that’s so great! Happy to hear this. “Life is Easy” kind of stunned me, too, when the message first came in. I’m neurotic, too — one of the major reasons I put up these messages is so that I can look at them. Congratulations on your blog! Neurotic or not, it’s just great to speak from the heart.
You can easily contact your higher self. Your website speaks volumes to me.
If you do this sentence stem, and write the first thoughts that come to your mind, without thinking about the consequences of you actions or blocking yourself out, this is how you do it:
The idea is to finish that sentence stem as quickly as possible, without censoring yourself. Write 6-10 endings for it. Write the first thoughts that come to your mind. If you get stuck, reread the stem and write the very first thing that completes the sentence. It doesn’t need to make sense. The key is to work rapidly, and write something. It’s VERY powerful stuff.
If my sage self could give me advice, one of the things he would say would be –
Your writing sounds as if the are rooted in Buddhism. Do you come from a Buddhist background. Looks like you aren’t. If that is true, that would make it very interesting.
No, I don’t come from a Buddhist background or have any formal Buddhist training, although I’ve studied it informally. But yes, often I feel like I’ve got a Buddhist teacher in my head — that’s how the channeled voice often “sounds” to me.
Wow. after reading a couple blogs posts of yours, I feel there is something similar working inside me.
Maybe I have been channeling?? I didn’t really understand the term until I saw it mentioned here. About a year ago, I started writing about parenting and, although I have no writing experience, the words came easily and quickly.
This was my first post: https://truthloveparenting.com/2017/03/31/first-blog-post/
I knew about some of the stuff I was writing about, but it felt like some of the more profound realizations I was having were coming to me as I was writing.
I have no training really, no religious background, just a curious mind that seems to be aligned with truth and love.
Perhaps we should talk.
Drew
Hi Drew,
Thanks for your response! If the words are coming easily and quickly to you, and they are coming from a heart-centered place that seems wiser and more grounded than your ego self, then yes, you may very well be channeling.
Thanks for the work you are doing on your blog. I’m the parent of a 3 year old boy (which is why I’ve posted so much less over the past few years). And nothing has challenged my faith and spiritual connectedness as much as parenting. At the same time, of course, it’s this incredible source of love and joy. The highs are high, the lows are low — as you know. So it’s really wonderful that you’re doing spiritual writing specifically from the point of view of a parent, because that’s a voice that’s much needed in the world.
Again, many thanks.
